  1. Endless cycle of Windows update prompts


    A few months ago, Windows Update performed a major update, after which I discovered that the volume control no longer worked on my laptop other than being able to turn the sound completely off. Looking around the web for help, one suggestion I found in a couple of places was to do an Uninstall on the sound device on the laptop Realtek audio and click the checkbox labeled "attempt to remove the driver for this device". According to those web sites, that would do a reinstall of the device upon computer restart. I tried it, and it worked -- after the restart, I could again turn down the so

    Update to Windows 10 Pro Failure Causing Endless Restart Cycle

    Update to Windows 10 Pro Failure Causing Endless Restart Cycle

    After reserving a spot to upgrade to Windows 10 my computer has started to constantly restart itself without any way of stopping the action. We have tried many different solutions and none of them have worked. The only way to avoid constant reboots is to
    take the computer offline. Any suggestions?

  3. windows 10 update stuck in endless cycle of trying to update

    Hello,

    I have the same problem. The Win10 update - 1709 is being downloaded and the update process starts. After it reaches 55% the computer is restarted and the process continues. However, when it reaches 90% the update process is stuck. The indication circle
    is spinning but everything is stuck. The HD led is constant.

    The only way to recover is to force shutdown the computer and then the process starts again.

    My current Win10 version is 1607

    Computer Intel NUC N2820

    I ran the Windows Update troubleshooting but it didn't help.

    I also did the suggestion in the previous post but it didn't help.

    Can you please help me solve this issue or disable this endless cycle?

    Thanks!

  4. Endless cycle of Windows update prompts

    Peculiar carousel: endless Windows 1903 update cycle

    Trying to update Windows 10 from version 1809 to version 1903.

    Update seems to go well until Windows asks, as usual, the user to restart, but after restart Windows boots only back to1809, not to 1903.

    Windows update history is very peculiar, showing this endless cycle:

    UPDATE HISTORY

    Feature Updates (1)

    Feature update to Windows 10, version 1903

    Requires a restart to finish installing

    Feature Updates (2)

    Feature update to Windows 10, version 1903

    Requires a restart to finish installing

    Feature Updates (3)

    etc etc - the same cycle continues endlessly

    Any fellow sufferer with this kind of symptom?
