    Stuck in a loop in downloading, preparing, & installing v1809 in W10 Home Ed. v1803?


    Hello.

    I'm trying to upgrade a client's Intel NUC's W10 Home Ed. v1803 to v1809, but it's seems to stuck in a loop in downloading, preparing, and installing that never finishes (doesn't even ask me to reboot yet!). It already happened five times as shown in my uploaded http://screenshot.cz/TE/TE7UT/wuhistory.gif screen shot/capture. As you can see, it has a lot of free disk space on C: after doing a SSD clone yesterday with Macrium Reflect v7.2's Win's PE on its original SSD.

    What's the problem and how can I fix it? I'm wasting a lot of time trying to get this upgraded. Stuck in a loop in downloading, preparing, & installing v1809 in W10 Home Ed. v1803? :( Thank you for reading and hopefully answering soon. Stuck in a loop in downloading, preparing, & installing v1809 in W10 Home Ed. v1803? :)

    :)

    V1803 Operating System (W10)

    December 12,2018. My O.S. has been V1083 Build 17134.407 is the latest. Ever since the new windows updates came out yesterday, my computer is trying to download and install sn update that is described as " feature update for windows 10 V1809" It keeps trying
    but always has an error . It really slows done the computer. Should the computer be updating my V1803 to V1809?

    Thanks

    Windows 10 stuck at preparing for installation

    My Windows 10 download is stuck. There are 2 windows one saying "preparing for installation" and the other saying "preparing for the upgrade" - I've installed on 2 laptops without problem but don't understand why I have this problem now on my desktop. Neither
    window shows any progress after one hour of looping. Any advice?
