Dell laptop stuck on Getting windows ready screen

My Dell laptop has been stuck on the getting windows ready don't turn off computer screen. Not saying upgrading nor showing a percentage, just a loading sign. I know if it doesn't reboot I'll have to force shut down but just wondering how long I should wait
before resulting to that. It's been almost 2 hours.

Anything helps, thanks!

Computer stuck at getting windows ready

Hi,

For us to effectively assist you, may we ask if you made any recent changes on your computer prior to the issue?

Have you tried any possible troubleshooting steps? If yes, what are those steps? This is to avoid repeating of the possible steps done.

If Windows 10 install gets stuck on the message "Getting Windows ready", it is possible that the internet connection might be running slow. Kindly ensure that your internet connection can suffice the download during the update. The other thing would be a conflict
from external devices. We suggest temporarily disconnect all peripherals aside from mouse and keyboard.

If you require any further information, let us know.

Regards.
