  1. PC Stuck on “working on updates 100% complete”


    Hi! I updated my windows today and it is stuck with Working on updates 100% complete do not turn off your PC. It's like about three hours stuck in loading in that screen and I decided to do restart couple of times but still stuck on the same message screen, then I decided to do System restore but after System Restore is finished it says it failed to restore. So when PC restarted again, it is again in the same working on updates 100% complete message screen with the cicular loading indicator. The weird this is, I noticed that the hard drive led light is still blinking, so I tried to access th

  2. W10 update stuck @ 100% complete

    Hello Gary,

    The issue might occur because there might be corrupted or missing Windows Update components on your PC. Did you perform the suggestion of Likhitha V on this
    link?

    We'll wait for your update.

    Windows 10 Update hangs on startup, saying 100% completed

    I have a new Fujitsu Lifebook series notebook, bought just about 2 months ago. I have only booted it roughly 10 times to install some basics (virus protection, and a couple of applications I'm going to need).

    During my last session, I did not install anything, but I triggered Windows Update from the start menu to ensure all the latest updates are installed.

    Unfortunately, Windows now hangs at a blue loading screen with a message like "Running updates, 100% complete, do not turn off the computer".

    After this had been shown for some hours, I decided to do some troubleshooting, and, based on the suggestions in the numerous forum threads found online about Windows 10 update issues, I rebooted several times. However, nothing helped:

    • Forced booting into the repair UI, then opened system recovery => the UI tells me I don't have any restore points.
    • Forced booting into the repair UI, then chose the option to boot into safe mode => stuck at the "100% complete" screen.
    • Forced booting into the repair UI, then chose to boot from a disk (with the recovery DVD provided by Fujitsu inserted) => stuck at the "100% complete" screen.
    • Forced booting into the repair UI, changed UEFI settings to always attempt booting from a disk first, then rebooted (with the recovery DVD provided by Fujitsu inserted) => stuck at the "100% complete" screen.

    How do I get past that "100% complete" screen, in order to get to a point where I can interact with the system to analyze and fix the problem?

    Thanks for any suggestions!

    PC Stuck on “working on updates 100% complete”

    Windows Updated(16299.309).KB4088776 Restart is required to complete.

    Hi dalchina. Good news, I followed your suggestion and reinstalled the update and now it appears as "installed correctly" *Biggrin Maybe it was not necessary to run the Windows Update Troubleshooter or maybe if necessary. But using it I do not think it could have worsened something. The installation was very fast, unlike the first time it showed step 1 and step 2 completed.

    Thanks for the suggestions and for the time to respond PC Stuck on “working on updates 100% complete” :) Best regards.


    And thanks for the tip of that program, I'll have it on my list.
