This is a very strange issue, and surely a very annoying one, because people literally waste time and efforts for nothing. According to some Windows 10 users, who complained on the Community forums, Windows 10 normally received and installed the Anniversary Update, but after the first restart, it just got back to the previous version. Microsoft actually never confirmed this issue, so it probably won’t even release a patch for it. But what’s even worse is that there’s currently no solution that will work for everybody facing this problem. A few Windows 10 users tried to solve it by performing actions like disabling antivirus, or restarting Windows Update, but unfortunately, the issue was still present. What we can advise you to try is to clean install the Anniversary Update, instead of downloading it via Windows Update. Microsoft already released ISO files and the Media Creation Tool, so you can easily create a bootable media with the Anniversary Update, and install it on your computer. However, we can’t guarantee that performing a clean install would surely prevent your system from reverting, but if nothing else could be done, it’s worth a try. In case you encountered this, or similar problem, and you managed to find a solution on your own, please share it with us in the comments, because we’re sure it would be helpful to other users.
