In order to better use the Windows 8 system computer, we need to update the driver from time to time. However, recently, some Windows 8 system users have reported that after updating the driver, there is a problem. In order to solve these problems, we have to revert to the original driver.

Here's how. 1. Press the Win+X key combination under the desktop, and then select "Device Manager";

2. After opening the Device Manager, find the device you just installed the driver, and then right-click "Properties" (take the camera as an example, other devices operate the same);

3. After opening the device properties, switch to the "Driver" tab, and then click the "Roll back driver lift" button; (If the driver has not been updated, then the button with this answer will be gray and cannot be clicked);

4. At this time, the system will pop up a prompt box, we don't have to pay attention to it, click "Yes", and start to roll back the operation, and restart the win8 system after completion, and then the driver will return to the previous state.

If you have turned on the patching function, this is a crash during patching, there is no better way, only press the power off button to turn off the power on (if not, you have to unplug the power).

The system patching feature requires an automatic network connection, which is not easy to use on its own, and there is no better way to do it.

It is recommended to turn off automatic updates, use software updates, and make your own decisions at your own time, and now the antivirus software here has the function of patching, such as: 360, Kingsoft, QQ Computer Manager, etc.

How to turn off automatic updates:

Control Panel - Windows Update - (left) Change Settings - Change the option under Important Updates to Never check for updates (Win78).

Entering in safe mode but still showing that the configuration of windows update failed, don't worry, waiting for 10 minutes may be longer (generally no more than 2 hours. Note! Waiting for hours without results in the case of normal startup, don't care I didn't remind !

After waiting in safe mode, you will enter the original interface in safe mode, and then you are almost successful!

Once you're in the original interface, you can wait a little 1 to 2 minutes and then restart your computer to start up normally. At this point, Normal Boot skips the display Configuration Windows Update Failed and goes to the desktop.

Finally, to put an end to the beginning of all this nightmare, open the Control Panel
