  1. Windows 10 2004 update froze - twice


    I watched it. It downloaded to my 1909 version on my Dell Latitude E6440 with a SSD, plenty of space, 16 GB ram but then it started it's install and a half hour into it it just froze the screen and none of my keys would work. I had to shut it off with the turn on/off button. When it restarted it said Undoing the changes and the progression bar ran backwards. This happed twice.


    What I tried. I updated the bios, updated parts of the hardware in my Device Manager like Video, Wifi, Ethernet, Sound and I have not got my install link in Windows Update to try it again. So I want to try it again but after two weeks I do an update and it only does Windows Security and not the 2004 link.


    So I can wait for the link but don't want another failed 2004 install.


    I did run Sfc /scannow and a dism restore health command as well. So I am all ready to go again for the install whenever it shows up.


    Any ideas?

    :)

    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.

    Windows 10 Tweaks

    Pressing “Windows+Pause Break” (it’s up there next to scroll lock) opens the “System” Window.

    Windows 10: In the new version of Windows, Explorer has a section called Quick Access. This includes your frequent folders and recent files. Explorer defaults to opening this page when you open a new window. If you’d rather open the usual This PC, with links to your drives and library folders, follow these steps:

    • Open a new Explorer window.
    • Click View in the ribbon.
    • Click Options.
    • Under General, next to “Open File Explorer to:” choose “This PC.”
    • Click OK
