This thing happening again. Previously i dealt with this problem on 1607 update, referring to the 30 page long thread here about similar update failure on NVMe. I tried all the solutions about disabling S.M.A.R.T and the likes to no avail. I'm aware that clean format works, but that's not an option for me. I sent a complaint and they ask me to RMA, which also not an option because it will simply take too long and i don't have spare laptop/computer to use. In the end, i managed to update 1607 to 1709 by cloning the OS to a SATADrive, remove the NVMe SSD and then updating on the SATA Drive, i had thought that's it, no such problem will arise anymore.
Well NOW it's happening again, feature update, winload.efi problem, the whole thing. The so called new NVMe driver from ASUS, the disabling of S.M.A.R.T, Raid mode whatever nothing works AGAIN. Had my Windows upgraded to PRO version so i can refuse updates bcs it eat to my SSD lifespan and network usage unnecessarily.
Is there any working solution at all to this long running problem?? please?? Why do i have to clone my disk and update on spare SATA every.single.feature.update,, am i cursed? G752 BIOS doesn't even read the Samsung 950 PRO NVMe and only list it as 'Windows Boot Manager' in 'Boot'
Edit: My laptop is G752VY. My OS installed in the Samsung 950 PRO SSD that came with the laptop. And i've read whole 30 pages of this thread.
From 1709 updated today. :<
You're doing something that's causing the issue maybe. Are you trying to install stuff like Samsung Magic?
Note, prior to this update, a couple months back I did a clean, fresh install.

You're so lucky. I been having this problem since 1607, got around that problem with a fresh install. All the other feature update after that fail with, or without samsung magician, not even disabling S.M.A.R.T work for me. The only thing work for me is updating on SATA, its just too much hassle everytime 😕 ,, the problem likely bcs im using AHCI mode instead of RAID. I notice in AHCI, the NVMe doesnt show in BIOS, while RAID show it.. But the switching method AHCI <-> RAID doesnt work for me and it might take a re-install to do it >.<
