Windows 10: What the heck just happened with windows update?

Installing today's monthly update KB5053598The installation got stuck for a while on 93% and i accidentally paused updates and restarted them, installation jumped to 100% and when I restarted to update, it got stuck on 0% at the "keep your computer on" screen, so after 20 mins I forced a shut down and it began to finally update properly, windows update shows it went successfully.sfc /scannow found no violations either.This is a new windows 11 laptop

:)

 

Windows Updated(16299.309).KB4088776 Restart is required to complete.

Hi dalchina. Good news, I followed your suggestion and reinstalled the update and now it appears as "installed correctly" *Biggrin Maybe it was not necessary to run the Windows Update Troubleshooter or maybe if necessary. But using it I do not think it could have worsened something. The installation was very fast, unlike the first time it showed step 1 and step 2 completed.

Thanks for the suggestions and for the time to respond Best regards.


And thanks for the tip of that program, I'll have it on my list.

 

Windows Update suddenly hangs?

Windows Update is suddenly hanging for some reason... I went and downloaded and installed the first bunch of updates, restarted when asked, and now when I go back to windows update I just get the window with a white box forever. Reboot and it still does it. This happens to be on my main machine, running windows 7.

I've also noticed when I reboot it says configuring windows update, step 3 of 3, 47%. Maybe it somehow skipped something and is screwed forever?
