Not exactly bricking, but a habit that Windows 10 developed is to force install drivers, even if they don't work.

I.e. it will install something, it won't work, do a rollback. Then, a day or two later, it will do it again, with the same package that didn't work last time. And again. And again.

Of course, meanwhile, your computer is unusable while it does the install/rollback dance and as a bonus, it does unnecessary wear and tear to your SSD.




ah ok, yeah - so business as usual :) (...shuffles back to work...)
