    Update stuck on 30% for days


    Hi, hoping for some advice!


    Laptop has been updating windows 10 for days now - keeps getting stuck at "Working in updates, 30% complete, don't turn off your computer."


    Have tried to restart, still stays stuck. Can't access any menus or functions from the screen it's on!


    Anyone else currently having this issue/ any advice on where I go from here?


    TIA

    :)

    Where is the 30 day calendar in Windows 10?

    The WIndows Store App Troubleshooter didn't turn anything up. I'm doing Step 2 now. Thanks for trying to help me. I miss that damn calendar! I use it all the time.

    Finished: Windows Resource Protection did not find any integrity violations.

    Any other suggestions to get this 30 day calendar working? Thanks.

    Laptop stuck on 0% updating for several days

    My partner's laptop is completely stuck on the updating page after a restart and several days later it will not go further than 0%. When I checked online for a solution every method seemed to suggest that the update was running in the background, whereas with my partner's we cannot get the computer to start up at all.

    Is there an easy fix for this or is it case of just buying a new one?

    Update stuck on 30% for days

    How can I downgrade after 30 days of Windows 10?

    You will have to perform a clean install, because Microsoft removed the 30 day grace period starting with Windows 10 1607 later. In those later releases Microsoft had changed it to 10 days.

    Step 1: Download the edition you have a license for:
