Windows 10: Windows Insider Update freezes on "Working on Updates" after reboot

Hey there, I'm not sure if there's an extra section for Insider stuff, so I'll post it here.

Anyway, my problem is that for the past week I've been trying to get the 19H1 Insider Fast Ring update to work, but when my PC reboots to install the update and gets to the "Working on Updates" screen, it always freezes at around 15%.

I've tried deleting the downloaded update files, resetting Windows Update, running the troubleshooter, which at some point did find a registry issue but still changed nothing and now I've gone ahead and did a complete clean install of Windows, but the problem still persists. On the hardware side, I've tried different RAM configurations, unplugging drives and trying different USB ports (for peripherals). So I'm at a complete loss here and this is basically my last resort.

I haven't seen this issue documented pretty much anywhere else or it got solved by a reinstall (which didn't help me). I'm thinking (hoping) this is maybe an issue with the update itself because there have been issues with people installing updates and specifically Insider builds before.

And I really don't know anywhere else to go but here, as MS Support never helped to solve any problem for me.

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?

 

FIXED!! Windows 7 sp1 never ends searching for updates

Ok I did another reboot, disabled windows update service, did step 3 again, this time it installed an update, enabled windows update service and did a reboot and voila!! *Peace eace:
