    20H2 Stuck at 35% Installing


    So after wondering why my crappy broadband was crawling this afternoon i discovered 20H2 had kicked itself off. 6.5 hours later it finally finishes, but now i'm at the "Status: Installing" stage, and as per the title it's been sat at 35% for about 15 mins.
    Any advice please?

    :)

  2. Windows 10 Update stuck at 35% completed

    Hi Johanson,

    Thank you for posting in Microsoft Community, we appreciate your interest in Windows 10.

    As per the description I understand that your device is stuck at 35% of installation of Windows Updates, we will help you with this issue.

    Do let us know the following to assist you better with this issue:

    • Are you using wired/ wireless internet connection?
    • Have you installed any anti-virus software on your device?
    • Were you able to see any error code/ error message with this issue?

    This issue might be due to the anti-virus software or corrupted Windows Update Components.

    I suggest you to remove all the external devices except mouse and keyboard, hard reboot the computer and perform the below troubleshooting steps.

    Method 1:

    Step 1: I suggest you to switch to wired connection (Connected the internet cable to your device) and try if you are able to install the Windows Updates. Also, try to uninstall the anti-virus
    software installed on your device.

    If the issue still persists,

    Step 2: I suggest you to
    run the Windows Update troubleshooter and check.

    Windows Update Troubleshooter resolves problems that prevents you from updating windows.

    Steps:

    • Press Windows key and type
      Troubleshooting.
    • Click on Troubleshooting and click on
      View all in the left pane.
    • Select Windows Update to run theWindows Update Troubleshooter
      and follow the on-screen instructions.

    If the issue still persists then,

    Method 2: I suggest you to try the steps mentioned in
    Reset Windows Update components
    and check if you are able to find the Windows Updates.

    Registry disclaimer: Important this section, method, or task contains steps that tell you how to modify the registry. However, serious problems might occur if you modify the registry incorrectly. Therefore, make sure that
    you follow these steps carefully. For added protection, back up the registry before you modify it. Then, you can restore the registry if a problem occurs.

    Refer to the below article to backup and restore the registry in Windows:

    How to back up and restore the registry in Windows

    Note: The above links applies to Windows 10 as well.

    Hope it helps. Reply to the post with an updated status of this issue, we will be happy to assist you further.

    Windows 7 Update Stuck at 35% (Configuring Windows Updates 35% Complete)

    I had the exact problem as described in your first paragraph.... did the disk cleanup, stuck at 100% stuck at 35%..... .. I restarted in safe mode...stuck at 35% again...I came up here to write a post , before I submitted it went back to check status and
    it was at the Cleaning phase...just as you said..... I found your post when I googled for "cleaning.. do not shut off computer" .....I read KenVrd's solution below and was resigned to having to try and get into DOS mode and try his suggestions... but when
    I went back to the computer it had got to the log in screen! I logged on, and then restarted from safe mode back to normal mode...started up fine! And all window updates were successfully installed!

    I read on another forum that sometimes booting up in safe mode helps the update installation to finish... so maybe that's what happened here... anyway hope this gives some hope to some other person who gets into this trouble....

    Same experience. Go to safe mode and stuck on 35% for a while until hard disk light not flesh, then hard rebot, go to normal starup, stuck on 35% again. Wait until i turn to clean up screen. Finally reach login screen.
