My tablet has suddenly started throwing this error message. If the play store and play services app update then I get cascading
errors: gboard, play services, play store, google+ all crash. I've rolled back the play store updates and that stops the cascading popups but I can't access youtube or a couple of other apps (network error). I've done a couple of hard resets but the same thing happens when the play store updates.

"GooglePlayStore has stopped working"..10-20 times on startup.

Every time Google Play Store and/or Services updates, multiple "X has stopped" annoying pop-ups appear.
Any official solution for this?

It sucks that Google caused the failure. Who knows "when" they will fix it. Especially since it only seems to affect our tablets. If it affected more tablet brands Google would certainly be fixing it quick. :-(
1. Factory reset the tablet by powering it off, and powering it back while the "volume up" button was held down. This will take you to a secret operating system menu, allowing you to do a hard reset of the tablet the old fashioned way.
2. Once the tablet came back on, went to the Google Play app, then Settings, then Version (in order to trigger an update to Google Play).
3. Visited the APK Mirror website to download an older version of Google Play Services (not to be confused with Google Play, from step #2). The version of Google Play Services that HAD been installed on my tablet prior to the reset was the "030-" variety (arm architecture), but the one that the tablet needs is the "070-" variety (x86 architecture). So at a minimum, this build works: 11.0.56 (070-156935310) May 25, 2017 x86 Android 4.0+ nodpi (Thanks to ysg26 for the insight on this one!)
Rebooting Android to fix the error
Updating the Google Play services app
Clear the Google Play services app cache
Disable Google Play services
Uninstall and reinstall Google Play services updates
Wipe device cache
Using Play Services Fix Info app
I am sure one of these fixes will solve your problem.
