To boot recovery media shut down completely. Press the on button and start spamming the Esc Key, this will bring up a boot menu select UEFI USB thumb drive what ever your is?
While in windows start an upgrade install from the USB Thumb drive MCT created for you, be sure to select to keep your files and software, let the upgrade install complete it will reboot at least once maybe more.
To start upgrade install, in window explorer get to your USB Thumb drive open and find the setup.exe right click and select admin mode.
Once the install completes go to Device manager and check you hardware drivers, the upgrade will have installed the native windows hardware drivers, your have to manually install the Asus Approved drivers or what ever version of drivers you know were working well for you before the update. This will solve 99% of hardware issues Track pad sound Graphics etc, You may have to reinstall the ATK package if your FN key stuff or background lights aren't working correcty.
With hardware drivers updated to good ones, check your software, MS Office will do a quick update install, several other programs will do the same thing.
You may find some software programs that don't want to work correctly. If you have this issue simple uninstall that program reboot and reinstall it. This will solve 99% of software issues

Be sure to check you power profile settings the upgrade will change them
be sure to turn off driver updates in WU
Turn off Hybrid shut down if you have an SSD you need it for anything and just causes issues
Turn off fast boot in windows same as above reason you don't need it for anything and causes issues
Turn off Sleep same issue as above with 15 second boot ups there is no reason to not shut down your notebook if you leaving for awhile. Waking up can have issues on the highly tweaked notebooks.
Turn off Sleep same as above
Otherwise take your chances and let the update run through WU and come back here looking for why your notebooks isn't working correctly!!! after a windows Update
I solved this for my G752VY by Clean Installing. I changed from RAID to AHCI. During the clean Install from USB created by MCT. I hit Shift +F10 bringing up a Command Prompt. Where I used Disk part to Clean All and then Convert GPT.
I clicked back into the install there my SSD was and I allowed the Windows Install to create partition and completed the Windows 10 Pro FCU upgrade.
I didn't like the way the Windows Native NVME driver so install the Samsung NVME 2.2 driver. I'm pretty much back where I was without a bunch of crap that I had tried over the last 10 months I've had this notebook. So I try to mark this Solved and if anyone has any questions lets start new threads for specific issues.
