    Windows Updated(16299.309).KB4088776 Restart is required to complete.

    Hi dalchina. Good news, I followed your suggestion and reinstalled the update and now it appears as "installed correctly" *Biggrin Maybe it was not necessary to run the Windows Update Troubleshooter or maybe if necessary. But using it I do not think it could have worsened something. The installation was very fast, unlike the first time it showed step 1 and step 2 completed.

    Thanks for the suggestions and for the time to respond my system is showing an error "you must be online the first time to complete your account... :) Best regards.


    And thanks for the tip of that program, I'll have it on my list.

    Hi Simar,

    I realize the inconvenience you are facing in accessing the operating system as you are not able to log-in. Do not worry we will help you with this issue.

    I suggest you to access the Command Prompt from the lock screen to enable built-in administrator account as you cannot access the operating system. Try the below troubleshooting steps and check if it helps.

    Follow the below steps:

    • From the Lock screen, click on
      Power button.
    • Press and hold the Shift key from the Keyboard and Click on
      Restart
    • Click on Repair your computer.
    • Click on Troubleshoot and in the Advanced options.
    • Select Command Prompt.
    • net user administrator /active: yes (Check for the spaces)
    Now log off from the current user and try to login to the administrator account that is enabled. 

    Note: Please follow the same steps and type net user administrator /active: no to disable admin account after the troubleshooting is done.

    Once you are on Built-in admin account create a new Microsoft account/ access the local account and check if it helps.

    Hope it helps. Get back to us with an updated status of this issue for further assistance.

    Thank you.
