Windows 10: Problems after installing SSU 10.0.19041.985

I lost the start menu and settings after the installation of SSU 10.0.19041.985. Can hit the key then get Critical Error message to re-sign in but that action does nothing. Also cannot get the settings menu to come up. It flashes and vanishes. Cannot see notification either. Any ideas??

Suggest you not manually install updates like that.

There are much better ways.

 

Installing Windows 10, stuck at 0%

I'm installing Windows 10 for my mum. I followed all the steps and got to the installing screen where it says to not turn off the computer and that it will restart several times. It has been at 0% for over 3 hours now. Any suggestions?

 

September 2019 servicing stack update (SSU) error "You need to provide Administrator permission" [KB4512938]

With regard to the two enumerated errors:

1. The recommendation to install SSU's before any other updates is because the SSU is designed to update
   the updating software itself. However, experience with the July SSU suggests that it is usually not detrimental to install an SSU after other updates that were (later) recommended to have been installed after the SSU.
   
   Do not bother to uninstall any regular updates before installing the SSU:
   if the other, regular updates were already correctly installed, then reinstalling them again after the SSU has been installed should not produce a different effect.
   
2. Based on experience with the July SSU, although installation with the usual Windows Update tool doesn't work the way it's supposed to, installation should still be possible using the
   
   Microsoft Update Catalog — in which case the user must be careful to manually select the appropriate download for their Windows version.
