  1. Update stuck after configuring


    The latest windows update has downloaded, installed, configured and now gone to blue screen saying 'working on updates 0%. Do not turn off your PC. This will take a while. Your PC will restart several times.' It has been on 0% for an hour now although the blue dot circle keeps turning. Is there anything we can do?

    :)

  3. Configuring updates Stuck loop

    Hi,

    Thank you for posting your query on Microsoft Community.

    I understand your inconvenience. We are here to assist you.

    I suggest you to check if you are able to boot the computer into Safe Mode environment.

    Method 1: Safe Mode.

    To use a Safe Boot option, follow these steps:


    • Restart your computer and start pressing the F8 key on your keyboard. On a computer that is configured for booting to multiple operating systems, you can press the F8 key when the Boot Menu appears.

    • Select an option to “Safe mode with networking” using the arrow keys on the keyboard when the Windows Advanced Options menu
      appears, and then press ENTER.

    If you are able to access the desktop in Safe mode, I suggest you to perform System Restore.

    System Restore brings a system to an operable condition after a disaster so that it can again accept and process data.

    To perform System Restore follow the step provided below.


    • Press Windows Key + R Key

    • Type rstrui and press Enter.

    • Follow the instructions on the screen.

    Note: System Restore will take back your computer to the date selected during restore process and will remove all the updates and changes made to the computer after
    that date. If the System restore point is before the date of installation of Windows 10 don’t not perform System Restore.

    After performing System Restore, restart your computer and check if the issue is resolved.

    Hope it helps. Do let us know if your issue is resolved. For any further information, feel free to contact us.

    Thank you.

  4. Update stuck after configuring

    Computer Stuck on "Preparing to configure Windows

    Hi Reegan,

    Your concern regarding the stuck on preparing to configure screen in Windows can be due to changes on your device configuration/settings or broken system files. To effectively assist you with your concern, we'd like to ask the following:

    • Which Windows build and version is running on your device? Type
      winver in the search box and press Enter to help you identify.
    • Have you made any changes on your device prior to your concern?
    • What are the troubleshooting steps that you've performed to resolve your concern?

    Meanwhile, we suggest that you run a full scan (SFC) and run a check health (DISM) command to rule out any issues related to corrupted system files which may prevent your device from starting properly.

    community MVP ZigZag3143.
