    PC/OS: Windows 11 Home 64-bit / i3-1115G4 / Intel UHD Graphics / 8 GB 2666 Mhz SODIMM x1 / 256 GB Samsung NVMEHello, I recently got a new HP laptop running Windows 11 to use along side my other systems.The problem im having with this computer, is that there are a couple windows updates I do not want to install, and I had to go back and uninstall them after I did it accidentally. Then Windows let me know there were updates again, and even though I paused the updates, it still chose to install them. So I uninstalled the updates again, and just now it not only installed them anyway after pausing

    Windows Update suddenly hangs?

    Windows Update is suddenly hanging for some reason... I went and downloaded and installed the first bunch of updates, restarted when asked, and now when I go back to windows update I just get the window with a white box forever. Reboot and it still does it. This happens to be on my main machine, running windows 7.

    I've also noticed when I reboot it says configuring windows update, step 3 of 3, 47%. Maybe it somehow skipped something and is screwed forever?

    Windows Updates failed to instal

    I just did step one and they have just all installed.... thank you so much.... it was quite frustrating having that update window pop up every 5 minutes and failing to instal every time

    Thanks mate

    Windows updates won't install!

    I had the same problem when i repaired my O/S, i forgot the steps on how to fixed it, but it is in the microsoft support forum.

    You have to reinstall the windows updater, then restart the updating service.
