Windows 10: Download Problems with Cumulative Update Version 1607 (KB3189866) x64

^ K thanks.

UPDATE - so after 4 hours, rest of the updates that were with cumulative update i.e., Malicious soft. update, adobe flash player update etc got installed.

But the cumulative update is showing as "Download" now.. So did that 49% download get erased ?..Should i go for the manual update method now cause i have already downloaded the 400 MB update through the catalog ?

 

If you check in reliability history (control panel and search for reliability)

Does it show and error for the Cumulative update?

 

This is what its showing. Don't see any cumulative update mentioned

 

If you do a check for updates does it find it again?

You could try doing it manually, but that is something i have never done, so not 100% sure on the process, think its just download and run it, but you might want to wait for someone else to confirm

 

Only running update on a 64BIT Toshiba laptop, last 2 Cumulative updates went ok, I have 50mb cable internet connection that is ok.

So downloaded the Microsoft Update Catalogue version and installed that, thanks for you chaps for listing that, but when checking the update status it list a few updates that did not install because the computer was turned off, what utter rubbish.

After a few tries managed to get them all installed.

I am still thinking that Windows 10 is till a Alpha version ?

How can business work with this problematic OS..
There are no simple click on this to fix these stupid problems.

Getting very tempted to install widows 7 on this PC as that on my desktop PC runs like a tank.


As Toshiba has all ? the files for that

*Mad*Mad*Mad

 

Well, there is no check for updates option cause its showing the update as seen in the image below

 

This is the reason...

Me too

 

All my systems warned me today that there was an update ready to be installed and that they had scheduled a restart. Of course, I did it manually and didn't wait for it.

For months now, I never go to Windows Update myself to start the download, I just let it happen and don't have any worries about it. *Smile (Well, that's not completely the truth, with the cumulative update of last month, one of my systems couldn't install it, and I needed to fix it myself. But most of the time, like this week, everything went as it should.)


In the past, I also went to Windows Update and did a manual check. Now and then, the downloads were also stuck at a certain percentage for hours, but since I stopped doing that, my updates arrive rather on time and the system itself warns me when there is a scheduled restart planned. Then I have the option to ignore it or do a manual restart. Most of the time, I choose option two, but when I'm away from the system for a few days, it does it all automatically.


But like mentioned by others, you can also download the update manually and install that one. I only use this option when the installation of an update keeps on failing on me.

 

My update screen is showing alternately that it is downloading defender updates (stuck at 0%), then it says updates are available. Those two screens keep flashing up and cycling around. Finally it says downloading cumulative etc, then back to defender.

Now it says no updates available. Last check Today 12.30 (which is now).

 

I had watched my WU 'stalled' at 48% (assumed it was downloading the 400MB msu) and I fell asleep. Awoke from my 'nap' hours later, there was a prompt to "Download". Upon clicking "Download", the status bar showed 95% and stayed there with no computer activity.

Following this thread's advice, I uninstalled the 400MB msu, used the RSS feed to download the .msu and rebooted. After restart, I ran the .msu and rebooted. The process took two reboots (one automatic) to reach completion. No further Updates afterwards. Build 187.

 

After my post ( a couple above this) I did a restart and also a manual check for updates. It finally installed OK but I wasn't happy at all the problems it took to get there......

I made a disk image of the updated OS for good measure and then restored an image made just this morning. I manually checked for updates and they were all found and installed in around 10 minutes.

You'll find a full disk clean will probably take around 30 minutes for this one and free up around 1.5Gb of space but still be down around 0.5 Gb from where it all started.

Such is Windows............

 

For everyone having this issue, download the update KB3189866 from the Microsoft Catalog here: Microsoft Update Catalog
If it does not allow you to continue from there saying you need Internet Explorer 6.0 or higher, click one of these links that correspond to your OS (Operating System):
(If you don't know what OS you're running, right click on the start menu and select "System" and it should tell you if you're on a 32-bit or 64-bit under the "System" section under "System Type"
Windows 10 32-bit:

Windows 10 64-bit:
http://catalog.update.microsoft.com/...1-0500f5f673f7
Windows Server 2016 64-bit:
http://catalog.update.microsoft.com/...4-35ac689e0bf9

If you are having issues installing the package, follow these steps:
1. Open CMD in administrator mode (right click on start menu and choose "Command Prompt (Admin)"
2. Type the following command: net stop wuauserv
(If the service fails to stop, try runnning the command again. If this still doesn't work, open "Task Manager", go to services, find wuauserv and right on it and then click "Stop". If all of these fail, restart your PC and follow these steps again.)
3. Install the update package.

 

This MAY BE the REASON why the download got stuck...

Last night, windows defender downloaded fine, but Cumulative Update Version 1607 for x64-based Systems (KB3189866) got stuck at 95% like it did for many of you. The twist was that I also lost internet connection.
The DSL router seemed to work fine, with all the lights on, but I restarted it anyway. Did not make any difference, still no internet connection. At a loss, I shut down the computer and went to sleep.

Today, no problem starting the computer, but still no internet connection and same 95%. So I started checking what changes Windows may have made to my PC.

I do NOT want Windows to "manage" or have control of anything on my PC, so when I saw that "Allow Windows to manage homegroup connections" was ticked, I knew it was something new.
I changed it to "Use user account" (screen shot) ... and POUF! instant internet connection. Within minutes the whole thing was downloaded and starting to install.
I don't have a homegroup (something that was added by the Anniversary update), so I suspect that after switching to manage it, win10 couldn't figure out what do without it and stopped all connections.

• To get to the homegroup settings: type "sharing" in the search box. It will bring "Manage advanced sharing settings".
Hope this long blurb helps you.





Now, I have a problem I hope you guys can help me with.

When I installed win10, I made sure that I did it with a local account (I don't even have a Microsoft account). I am the only one using this computer, so I don't have a password.
Today, When I saved "use user account", it told me that I needed to logout of the computer. It gave me the option to do it later, but what will happen when win10 automatically restart the PC to finish the update?
I've never used the "logout" option, so I'm not sure what it does when there is no password.
I hope the PC will just restart as usual without even asking for a password, but I'm a bit worried. Any danger that I'll get logged out with no way to get back in? I only have a few hours before it automatically restarts...

Thanks in advance for any help. *Smile

 

Something similar happened to me yesterday. I needed to log out but have the PC set to use a local account with no password needed at boot up.

I logged out and sure enough I was asked for a password to get back in. I tried entering my normal MS password but it kept saying it was invalid. Wondered what to do next (lol and I honestly can't remember now) but it was either do a restart... is that option available from the symbols on the login screen ? or I just powered off (have the power button configured to shutdown). All was fine though.
