    SFC Failure - awaiting repair pending a restart


    I‘m attempting to upgrade a 1607 Windows 10 Pro system to 1703. (I’ve successfully done four of my six systems.) The upgrade appears to complete successfully, but there are two significant problems. I can no longer connect to my NAS, or any other computer on my network, and I can’t run off or disable my touchpad. (It would disable itself if a mouse was present, and work as advertised when a mouse was not attached.)

    I thought I would try again. I reverted to the previous level NOT by backing it out, but by reloading the drive with the previous OS image. I then went to run SFC just to be sure there weren’t any file problems, and discovered that SFC won’t run because it has a prior repair awaiting a restart. Multiple restarts produced no change. Any idea how I might get by this pending repair?

    Thanks.

    :)
     

  2. Windows 10 upgrade = No startup, No automatic repair, no restore point, no repair disc, no previous build, no diagnose, no Startup Setting options

    Thank you for the reply.

    Where would I press windows, X?

    troubleshoot command prompt entry of sfc/scannow results in:

    "there is a system repair pending which requires reboot to complete. Restart windows to run sfc again"

    Then:

    Computer goes straight to "Preparing Automatic Repair" on startup and restart.

    Then it goes to "Diagnosing" when I enter sac/scannow, it displays "there is a system repair pending which requires reboot to complete. Restart windows to run sfc again"

    When I restart, same series of events occurs.

    how do I get past pending system repair?

  3. Windows 10 upgrade = No startup, No automatic repair, no restore point, no repair disc, no previous build, no diagnose, no Startup Setting options

    To clarify: I cannot run sfc/scannow , the message I get is "there is a system repair pending which requires reboot to complete. Restart windows and run sfc again"

    Every restart fails.

    Startup up repair page says "Startup Repair couldn't repair your PC......"

    What should I try next?

    PC has been down for a week now.....not good.
