  2. error: 0x80070005 prevents installing windows 10 insider preview 14901

    Hello,

    This issue might be due to the anti-virus software or corrupted Windows Update Components.

    I suggest you to hard reboot the computer and perform the below.

    Method 1:

    Step 1: I suggest you to uninstall the anti-virus software installed on your device and check for the updates.

    If the issue still persists,

    Step 2: I suggest you to
    run the Windows Update troubleshooter and check.

    Windows Update Troubleshooter resolves problems that prevents you from updating windows.

    Steps:

    • Press Windows key and type
      Troubleshooting.
    • Click on Troubleshooting and click on
      View all in the left pane.
    • Select Windows Update to run the
      Windows Update Troubleshooter and follow the on-screen instructions.

    If the issue still persists then,

    Method 2: I suggest you to perform
    Clean boot to avoid any third party software conflict.

    Disclaimer: Putting your system in
    Clean Boot
    state helps in identifying if any third party applications or startup items are causing the issue. You need to follow the steps from the article mentioned below to perform a Clean Boot.

    How to perform a clean boot in Windows

    Note: Refer "How to reset the computer to start normally after clean boot troubleshooting" to reset the computer to start as normal after troubleshooting.

    Hope it helps. Reply to the post with an updated status of this issue, we will be happy to assist you further.

  3. ram93 Win User
    laptop doesnt boot automatically

    This is what happened.

    1. Did a repair install and later disabled hibertnate in CMD.
    2. Enabled legacy option ROM in BIOS.
    3. After a few times startup ( i used the system in such mode for 5 days), changed boot option back to default.
    4. Vola!! It boots automatically to win10 without any keypress. Tested it with many starts to confirm the same.
    5. Re-enabled hibernate option using CMD and later selected Fast Startup.
    6. System booted normally, without the need for any keypress.

    I do not know exactly whether such steps resolved the problem or what else happened, hence cannot suggest above steps.

    Many thanks to all members who helped to troubleshoot problems.
