I have more than 30 computers on various sites that are stuck at the login screen.
this happened after the last batch of updates. There is no way to recover them without a full reinstallation.
roll backs, uninstalling updates, system recovery all fail
any help would be greatly appreciated
i know of several more businesses having this issue

    Hi,
    I'm not sure what method you used to try to uninstall. Uninstall in Safe Mode didn’t work? If the commands below will work fine.
    If you have a Win10 system image, you could boot with this image and select repair your computer option to get into WinRE.
    Then open cmd window:
    This command gets a list about installed updates.
    DISM /Image:C:\ /Get-Packages > C:\patch.txt
    This command will remove update.
    Dism /Image:C:\ /Remove-Package /PackageName:<Package Identity>
    Also I consider you could try to use startup repair option to check.
    1)Still boot from the ISO file.
    2) In the Windows Recovery Environment, on the Choose an option screen, click 'Troubleshoot'.
    3) Click, Advanced Options and then click on ‘Startup repair’.
    4) After this complete the repair and see if you are able to boot in to your computer.
    Hope this helps and please help to accept as Answer if the response is useful.
    Best Regards,
    Carl
