Windows 10: Activation of windows 10 failed after updation

Dear Support,



I purchased Halo CE anniversary edition today. When I tried to install it, it said I have to update windows 10 to the latest version. It took a long time to get the update process complete. When I restarted, the windows screen went black and I was unable to set a background. It says I need to activate Windows to change the background. My Windows 10 was activated before update. It was the default OS when I bought it. The device is Acer. I searched the net for a solution and I found that trouble shoot could help. I did a trouble shoot and I got this message.


" We found a Windows 10 Home Single Language digital license for this device running Windows 10 Home Single Language. To activate using this digital license, you need to install Windows 10 Home Single Language."


If I am running Windows 10 Home Single Language, why should Windows troubleshoot want me too install Windows 10 Home Single Language again to activate the digital license for Windows 10 Home Single Language.


I am getting confused , a day got really wasted... Please help.


Thank you,

Tony Thomas

Windows 10 fails to update


When you finish testing the Avast suggestion, make sure that you restart your machine.

Then if the issue persists, please return to the trouble shooting list in post# 89

I think there are three steps that remain; the WU troubleshooter, reset WU components, and manual WU reset.

 

Windows 10 Updates fails to install even after multiple attempts.

Checking for updates after following the steps, Will inform on the progress of the update process and whether this solves it or nope. Thank you for the suggestion.

[Update]
The Trick didn't work.





The Security Update for Windows 10 for x64-based Systems (KB3074681) which was available, failed to install. And the same story again..

 

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
