Windows 10: Cumulate Update (KB3172985) Windows 10 version 1511 build 10586.494

I downloaded it yesterday, and for me it went very smooth and was as fast as all the previous monthly cumulative updates have been...
And everything here is working fine *Smile

 

Updated OK and yes it was a little slow downloading but having successfully installed and rebooted I did as I always do and ran a full disk clean. The cleanup was very slow taking around 30 minutes over the 'cleaning windows updates packages' bit but it did free up over 1.2Gb this time. Usually it only takes a minute or so to run.

 

Same here but with a desktop pc which was 10586.318

 

Microsoft Update Catalog
Microsoft Update Catalog
Only works with IE.
Search for KB number.

 

This is the second month (june and juli) I can't install the cumulative update. I don't know what's wrong.
The pc restarts and windows says the update failed...

I reset the Windows Update via a script... Rebooted, download again via windows update. Fails....

I reset again. Download the update manually via Microsoft Update Catalog
It installs, I have to restart the pc, I don't see a percentage from the progress. It restarts but it fails.

I ran sfc/ scannow --> no errors

I'm afraid I can't install the big anniversary update in august when the cum. updates from the last two months fail.

Any ideas? System restore point?

 

Updated was ok for me, really fast downloading and updating.

Everything ok. I have an SSD, lol... That's the difference!!!*Smile

 

I was able to fix the issue of this update not installing.

Look here: Cannot install KB3172985

 

Right on the heels of Elpusher...I've FIXED my HANNSPREE SN12E which would not do the update...
I did it differently...I ran the GetWindows10-sds_____________.exe file which initiates a Windows 10
update download....It took several hours but successfully completed and laid Windows 10
over my current setup...The only thing I had to do was put the license back in Kaspersky...
AND...Much to my surprise...When it was done I did a WINVER and it was already
at 10586.494...I did not have to run the update...It was already installed with the
downloaded Windows 10 that had been installed....I ran update again and it updated
three more things including the previous cumulative update but that finished immediately
as the .494 download appeared have updated everything already...
I am running Windows 10 HOME 32bit on this Laptop...
I have uploaded the GetWindows10-sds_____________.exe file to my ftp server for anyone who needs it
at the following

This file is how I initiated the upgrade last year on all nine of my computers.
This works on 32bit Windows 10...I do not know if this works on 64bit Win10.
So all nine of my computers are now 10586.494...

 

Just received this update and it installed fine. *Cool

 

Interested in the comments re slow downloads. These '494' updates weren't too slow but, wow, it took over 9 hrs to upgrade a win 7 to win 10. It started about 8pm last night and was still at 99% at 4am! Looked again at 6am and it was done.

We can but hope the server feeds are up to it come 2 Aug!!

 

This update completed in 70 minutes over a 4 Mbps connection and installed with no recorded problems.

 

Anyone else suddenly have 'Cortana stopped working' messages in their reliability monitor every time they start up since this patch, I haven't even used the damned Microsoft Skynet since I updated to Windows 10.

 

Mine went to 72 percent quickly and hung up. I hit the power and selected restart. It updated all but the cumulative and once it restarted selected settings and update and it downloaded the rest very quickly and upgraded flawlessly.

 

This morning I notice cpu usage is high and Windows modular installer worker service is consuming cycles. All my updates installed ok the other night and since then several successful reboots. It's seems related to the update service though. So I check for updates manually and it's stuck on checking for updates. Annoying. So I then decide to reboot and despite no apparent updates bring found and/or installed my machine is on blue screen sticking on 'preparing to configure updates' yet doing nothing - any advice?

 

I had the same thing this morning on one of my desktops (10 Pro x64) and after 30 minutes of it I shut it down by turning off the power then rebooted with no problems then deleted everything inside the Download folder in "C:\Windows\SoftwareDistribution\Download" and upon a restart everything was fine and no more "preparing to configure updates"
