Now the latest Windows update has stuffed-up my game, how can I revert to previous version.

I was playing my Fallout 4 game when it began to run VERY slowly. I saved, then aborted the game, and found Windows Update was running. After windows update concluded I am unable to restart my Fallout 4 Game.
Effing Microsoft!

    Hi,

    Make sure whether it is an update or upgrade on your system.
    If it is a update package such as (KB###) which will keep your existing system version, we could uninstall it through Control Panel\Programs and features\view installed update.
    If it is a feature update which will upgrade system to an upper system version, such as Windows 10 1909 to Windows 10 2004, we could roll back to previous system version through Settings\Update&Security\Recovery\Go back to previous system version.

    But I would recommend to update graphic driver and BIOS driver to latest version from device manufacturer website and check if fallout 4 have latest version for your system before uninstall update or roll back.

    Bests,

    Joy.
