  1. I seriously need help on updating my Windows 10


    I tried multiple methods I found to fix my issue where I constantly downloading and installing the same update (1903) and it literally doesn't update my Windows. Everytime I restart my laptop and check in the Windows Update, it keeps repeating the same process over and over until my the size of C:\Windows\SoftwareDistribution got at least 30GB+.

    I tried deleting it's content and yet my Windows still repeat the same process and still failed to install 1903. I'm still stuck on 1803. I even tried the media installation, either going on Upgrade this PC or through USB drive, it just won't install, saying 'Windows Update Installation Failed'.

    Just how do I exactly force update my Windows? I just don't know what to do besides resetting my laptop (basically Reset this PC).

    Pressing “Windows+Pause Break” (it’s up there next to scroll lock) opens the “System” Window.

    Windows 10: In the new version of Windows, Explorer has a section called Quick Access. This includes your frequent folders and recent files. Explorer defaults to opening this page when you open a new window. If you’d rather open the usual This PC, with links to your drives and library folders, follow these steps:

    • Open a new Explorer window.
    • Click View in the ribbon.
    • Click Options.
    • Under General, next to “Open File Explorer to:” choose “This PC.”
    • Click OK

    I seriously need help on updating my Windows 10

    Windows 10 upgrade problem, no input accepted

    I really hate having to come here and ask for help, but I really am stumped. It hurts my geek pride. I have a PC with fairly modern hardware in it. It has a p8p67 pro in it. I have tried upgrading windows 10 on it twice now. Both times I have had the same result.

    After windows finishes upgrading it goes to the log in/set up screen. I can't do anything. No keyboard or mouse input is accepted.

    I will list some, or hopefully all, of the troubleshooting steps I have tried:
    • Move keyboard and mouse to different USB ports.
    • Try different keyboard or mouse.
    • Restart computer, repeatedly.
    • Google for related issues.
    • Update Bios, because why not.
    • Create boot media and revert to windows 7.
    The windows 10 system restore boot media works fine with keyboard and mouse. All USB ports work in windows 7. I don't know what is wrong. I suspect that windows 10 is lacking a driver of some sort, but since the computer accepts no input I have no way of checking for which driver let alone installing it.

    Please help me figure this out. If I have to revert back to windows 7 again, I am not going to get it upgraded to windows 10. Thank you in advanced.
