    Why is the 2004 update suddenly downloading and installing right now?


    I was told that I didn't have to be worried about this at all. I am currently on 1909. And this wasn't supposed to happen. I heard that not only there were tons of problems with this update. But, there's a new update out now. What is going on? Can someone please help? I have Home.

    :)

    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?
     
  3. Windows 10 2004 update fails to install - Memory Management?

    1. Go here
    https://www.catalog.update.microsoft...px?q=KB4576751
    check on installed updates in your computer that you have the latest servicing stack for - presumably 1909

    If not download and install from the catalogue link - 64based update - second on list.

    2. Then try update to 2004 after complete shutdown
    Step 1: Open Start menu, select Power button.

    Step 2: Press and hold the Shift key on keyboard, while clicking on Shut down, and then release the Shift key to perform a full shutdown.

    OR as you may know a restart is a complete shutdown.

    IF the 2004 update is offered on updates as the item - feature update to 2004 when you are ready etc.
    The make sure beforte you click that - that you have clicked search for updates and install all - before trying 2004.

    If that does not work clean boot it and then try the update

    2004 update windows 10 error 0x80070002

    Hello everyone,

    thanks to some of the suggestions here and to some from other sources I have managed to fix the 0x80070002 error breaking up my feature update to 2004.

    For completeness' sake and since it may help others, the following steps worked for me.

    1. Download Media Creation Tool from Microsoft's official website
    2. Create a bootable USB drive with the MCT
    3. Boot up from this USB Drive
    4. Choose install settings, click 'Next', but on the next screen select "Repair your computer" instead of "Install"
    5. Choose "Troubleshoot" -> "Startup Repair" and let it finish
    6. Restart into Windows and attempt the usual Windows update
    It looks like the BCD on my computer had been damaged by the boot loader (Windows 10 + Recovery partition) and running the "Startup Repair" from the installation USB Drive corrected the errors.
