Windows 10: Cant even get to boot screen on windows desktop

Hello. I just got back from being gone for 2 months. I came back to my pc, which was off and not touched for a whole 2 months. I logged in but it started to give me a blue screen. I then tried to possibly update any drivers, it didn't work. I'm now at the stage where I turn my pc on, my motherboard screen comes up, it says something along the lines of analyzing problem, then it crashes. Its stuck in a boot loop and says the followingage fault in non paged areaWhat Failed: rcbottom.sysThen when I am able to get past that, it says the following, "Active partition not found! Press any key . . .

windows update stuck at installation screen and cannot get to desktop

Hi Sue,

To understand the issue better, I would like to ask some questions:

• Is the computer stuck in the Installing updates screen?
• For how long is the computer stuck in the screen?
• When was the computer last updated?
• Is the screen showing any percentage of installation?

Sometimes the installation might take a long time to install if the update is of large size. So, I suggest you to wait for sometime and check if the system boots to the desktop. If it is taking a longer time, then perform a Power Drain by following the steps
provided below:

• Shut down the Computer.
• Remove all power source (including battery if it is a laptop).
• Press and hold the power button for 15-20 seconds.
• Connect the power source and start the computer.
• After the computer boots to the desktop, suggest you to install all the pending updates.

Hope this helps. Keep us posted on the status for further assistance.

Thank you.
