and on checking further online, the editor found the exact screen grabs sent him by the MS tech guy and the instructions here: The MS tech support person he dealt with provided him some screen-shots of how to go about turning OFF auto-updates in the Windows Registry, not of course for the faint-at-heart and as always, COPY the registry file before doing anything in there. And doing a fresh install is probably best. An DO NOT click on the 'download updates' in the install process dialogs, click no to anything like that.

Here is a link to download an ISO disk image of the 1607 Windows 10 installer: Once a Windows 10 updates to a newer Creators build there is no way to downgrade, the only option is to reinstall Windows with an installer that has the 1607 Anniversary update on it, then quickly disable updates and only manually install chipset drivers, graphics drivers, storage etc. You can easily reveal your OS version by Windows Key+R then type winver. In the meantime the only build that is really stable in my estimation is the Anniversary Update which is build 1607. Microsoft has pretty much admitted that they are aware of issues in both of those builds and that they have engineers working on fixing the all the various issues. So I've become pretty convinced that the majority of stability issues with Adobe apps on Windows machines is due to the Creators updates, both the Creators Update and the Fall Creators Updates. On a different forum, he posted this following which might be of use for some people with troubles in the PC side of things: He went to getting on the phone with a Microsoft tech help person, and spent quite a bit of time. all making getting anything done take FAR longer than it should. the niggling things where there were frequent pauses, hangs, the odd crash. A fellow editor whom I respect has been having some of the instability issues in PrPro.
