Windows 10: Update to windows 11 gets stuck on boot screen

I have a Lenovo Ideapad Gaming 3, I've had the Windows 11 update notification since the beginning, to this day I tried installing it thrice, but every time after the initial installation after it reboots it just gets stuck forever on the Lenovo loading screen, I even let it run a whole night twice and nothing happened.I always turn off the pc by holding the power button and then turn it back on and it boots with windows 10 still asking me to update to 11.How can I get it to finally update?

windows update stuck at installation screen and cannot get to desktop

Hi Sue,

To understand the issue better, I would like to ask some questions:

• Is the computer stuck in the Installing updates screen?
• For how long is the computer stuck in the screen?
• When was the computer last updated?
• Is the screen showing any percentage of installation?

Sometimes the installation might take a long time to install if the update is of large size. So, I suggest you to wait for sometime and check if the system boots to the desktop. If it is taking a longer time, then perform a Power Drain by following the steps
provided below:

• Shut down the Computer.
• Remove all power source (including battery if it is a laptop).
• Press and hold the power button for 15-20 seconds.
• Connect the power source and start the computer.
• After the computer boots to the desktop, suggest you to install all the pending updates.

Hope this helps. Keep us posted on the status for further assistance.

Thank you.

Windows 10 Anniversary Update stuck at boot screen

Hello,

I am having issues installing the Windows 10 Anniversary Update v1607.

Everything works fine, till the point the update gets installed and the system reboots, which is the spinning circle before the login screen. The system remains stuck there only.

Things I tried:

• Tried to install 3 times, 2 times through windows update, once with the Windows 10 update assistant
• Tried to install under clean boot conditions, with all Startups disabled
• Tried with all the USB devices unplugged (as suggested in a Reddit
  post)

Still, each time I couldn't get past the boot screen. I had to force shutdown the system two times till it restored the earlier windows.

The issue:

• I have only this system which I use for both work & studies, and thus for prolonged period of time can't let the system idle hoping it will get past the boot screen
• There is no option to stop the windows update like in windows 7 or 8. Thus, the update is all but installed and waiting for a system restart to be again stuck at the boot
• My system is old, so can't go for clean format and install since the latest drivers will be buggy on my old hardware

System details:

Dell Inspiron 15R (2012) i5

4GB RAM, 1TB hard-disk, 1GB AMD Radeon Graphics card.

Running windows version: 1511

I have searched everywhere on the internet to resolve the issue, microsoft forums included, yet couldn't find a proper solution or a workaround. Any help would be appreciated.

Thank You
