Windows 10 Upgrade Assistant is stuck at 99%



If the progress of Windows Upgrade Assistant is stuck at 99% for more than four hours, here's something you can try. Note: Follow these steps before you restart your PC. Otherwise, the Media folder might not be available.

• Open File Explorer, type C:\$GetCurrent, and then press Enter.
• Copy and paste the Media folder to the desktop. If you don't see the folder, select View and make sure the checkbox next to Hidden items is selected.
• Restart your PC, open File Explorer, type C:\$GetCurrent in the address bar, and then press Enter.
• Copy and paste the Media folder from the desktop to C:\$GetCurrent.
• Open the Media folder, and double-click Setup.
• Follow the instructions to start the upgrade. On the Get important updates screen, select Not right now, and then select Next.
• Follow the instructions to finish upgrading to Windows 10. After it's done, make sure to install available updates. Select the Start button, and then select Settings > Update & security > Windows Update > Check for updates.

 

Windows update stuck at 99% after restore! (Help)

This fix worked. However, there is also another fix according to Microsoft on January 3, 2018.

Affects O/S: Windows 10 and Windows 10 Pro (1709)

Problem: Update KB4054517 gets stuck at 99% and fails installation. After restarting the computer, Windows will say “Getting Windows Ready, don’t turn off PC,” and can remain in that mode for 30 minutes to several hours. This restart time should only take a minute or less.

Fix Option #1:

• Download and install the Servicing stack update for Windows 10 Version 1709: January 3, 2018
  • http://www.catalog.update.microsoft....px?q=KB4054022
• Restart the machine

Fix Option #2:

• Stop the Windows Update Process. Type “Services” in the Windows Search Bar and open it up
• Stop the Windows Update service
• Delete the SoftwareDistribution folder located in C:\Windows
• Download and install the Cumulative Update for Windows 10 (e.g., x64 based Systems)
  • http://www.catalog.update.microsoft....px?q=KB4054517
• Restart the machine
