  2. May take hours to do a restore, slow as it is running. It has been running this getting ready message from the time of my last post. I find this very depressing.

    Might need a complete fresh install to fix it.

  3. I think a waste of time, pc is still trying to simple process the preparing for the restore. Whatever has occurred, it has destroyed the speed.

    I see from your update history that you got the update to Fall Creators Update (1709) on 25th January. This was followed on the 26th January by the Cumulative Update KB4056892 Windows 10 v1709 Build 16299.192

    Apart from the KB4074595 Security Update for Adobe Flash Player - Feb. 6 you have received none of the Windows Updates you should have had since then. I also note you are failing to install any of the updates for your installed Office XP.

    The 'Reset this PC' option will uninstall all your installed apps, including your Office.
    Reset Windows 10

    As your Windows Update doesn't appear to be working properly, try running the Windows Update Troubleshooter in...
    Settings > Update & Security > Troubleshoot
     
  5. I can not even run the troubleshooter, simply errors.
    And the restore is still stuck

  6. I think I will reboot and try the reset option, otherwise I will have to download an iso and do a full install.

    You might fill in your system spec's and show us how you have 7-10 and linux installed.

    The windows update troubleshooter probably cannot run because windows was preparing for the restore. I'd reboot and try the Troubleshooter again before trying the reset. You'll have a lot of apps to reinstall if you go for a reset.
     
  9. I own 4 PC, they all run different os.

    Then a clean install would be the logical next step.

    If you're not averse to using third-party utilities, my own repeated personal experience suggests that running the Windows Update MiniTool (WUMT) might be able to access updates when WU itself is having problems retrieving and installing them. The tool is free, works well, and is widely recommended here on TenForums. As an added bonus, I've also observed that when WUMT does break a logjam for WU, WU usually starts working normally thereafter, too. Thus, you might want to give it a try.
    HTH,

  14. It must be more than an update problem. Even with older system files, the system should not simply collapse.
