Computer failure after Window 10 updates.

The error message you mentioned could mean that the system’s data store and the download folder got desynchronized, resulting in your Windows Updates not working properly. Let's try clearing the
Software Distribution folder where all of the updates are stored. Doing so will force Windows Update to download fresh. There’s nothing vital here. Windows Update will recreate what it needs the next time you run it. Please note that doing
this will also result in losing your Update history. Moreover, the next time you run Windows Update, it will result in a longer detection time.

First, you'll need to stop the Windows Update related services by following these steps:

• Right-click on the Start menu and select Command Prompt (Admin).
• Type the following command one after the other and hit Enter:

net stop wuauserv

net stop cryptSvcnet stop bits

net stop msiserver

Then, follow these steps to empty the Software Distribution folder:

• Go to: C:\Windows\SoftwareDistribution\Download
• Delete everything within the folder. Do NOT delete the folder itself.
• Restart your computer and give Windows Update another try to see if the issue still exists.

Now, let’s restart the Windows Update related services by typing the following commands one after the other and hitting on
Enter in Command Prompt (Admin):

net start wuauserv

net start cryptSvc

net start bits

net start msiserver



To close the Command Prompt (Admin), type
Exit and hit on Enter. Restart the computer.

Let us know how it goes.

 

Computer failure after Window 10 updates.

The only way I can boot the computer is to allow the automatic repair/diagnosing your computer to run, and then eventually end up in safe mode. But at this point my computer says that the network is not connected. I go to the control panel and the trouble
shooter found on two occasions that "service registration is missing or corrupted, and tht it fixed the problem" After this I can access the internet and use my computer. However when I attempt to shut down the computer I am given the choice "update now and
then turn off or turn off now and update later". When I choose one of these options my computer freezes and I have to go through this whole process again, and again. How can this be fixed? I would be grateful if you could help. Thanks.

 

Is there anything in Update History? (Settings|Update & security|Advanced options|View your update history)

 

In update history there are updates which are successful and some are failed to update

 

Hi Aamir, Take a look at this thread which I believe will assist you

 

I had the same problem and then, last night, the same updates were installed again -- and this time, they succeeded. This was done automatically when I checked for updates last night.
