@thelinuxEXP @PlutoisAPlanet it’s not that there is no way to fix it at all. Windows has Safe Mode and WinPE. The problem is that it requires interaction with each device. Business has no plan for recovery in such a scenario. In some cases they had not properly done BitLocker key escrow. Many POS and kiosk devices are deployed with no IT support physically present.

@breiter @thelinuxEXP Shame Windows 10X was dropped which was designed to stop this very thing via atomic updates.

NixOS and OSTree distros are the only two I can think of on Linux that would of survived this issue (as long as the update was pulled first).
