Windows 10: Windows 10 KB4462919 Causes Boot Issue

I am experiencing a problem with the recent Windows update KB4462919. When the computer restarts to install the update, it freezes at the Windows Logo. The normal rotating dots just freeze and the compute will not continue to boot. After powering down 3 times, the computer tries to do a startup repair and I get a message that it could not be repaired. If I then attempt to boot into safe mode, I get the "We couldn't Complete the Updates, undoing changes. Don't turn off your computer" message. Once that process completes, the computer restarts and freezes at the logo screen again. If I then power off one more time and restart again the PC will then boot and I once again get the "We couldn't Complete the Updates, undoing changes. Don't turn off your computer" message. After it completes again, the PC will boot normally. I've gone through this process twice because Windows tries again to install the update and it starts all over again. Currently, I have used the "Show or Hide updates" troubleshooter to stop that update from trying to install again. When I look at update history, below KB4462919 I see this message - "Last failed install attempt on ‎10/‎10/‎2018 - 0x800f0923. Any recommendations on how to fix this issue?

windows 10 slow boot

I was having a slow boot issue on my Windows 7 install a little while back. It would take about 30 - 40 extra seconds to boot up for whatever reason.

I would try following these steps, while this didn't solve my issue, it did increase Read/Write to where it should be.

Looks to be similar to this: https://www.back2gaming.com/focus-story/ssd-optimization-for-windows-10-windows-8-and-8-1/


In the end, I had to reinstall my Windows 7 entirely to fix the booting issue. It was taking around 35 seconds to boot, and after the fresh install it takes about 7 seconds to boot.

 

Windows 10 USB boot

Hi there, am not a windows 10 expert. I have a pc in the bedroom on windows 10, I messed up the bootloader trying to fix the xp on that system.

System wont boot, trying to repair via win 10 usb installer.

Downloaded the media creation tool to install windows 10 installer on usb stick. Not compatible with a host of usb sticks I have. Tried the usb sticks that others use, but I think they use rufus; as the media creation tool by win 10 does not detect the usb stick.

So quick question, the win10 machine i am trying to repair the bootloader is a win7 upgraded to win10.
If i were to use the usb win10 installer to "repair installation" does the version of the iso downloaded via the media creation tool matter?

There is three options:
Windows 10
Windows 10 Home
Windows 10 N

Also is there a step by step instead of using rufus as I want to try an alternative method of creating a usb win 10 installer. Preferably with more compatibility.

System is a asus sabertooth 990 (r2?) with AMD phenom X 6.

Also is there any other software I can load onto the usb that can repair the bootloader easily?
That would be the ideal alternative. Thanks

 

Windows 10 issues!

I had a similar issue but it only happen on older hardware, Windows would install the stock drivers which would make it nearly impossible to access the internet. Luckily I had newest Intel and Realtek NIC drivers that ran perfectly on Win 10 x64 1607 version, installing those fixed my that problem.

This also can happen on a non-fresh install of WIn 10, when you try to boot from a different computer/motherboard, after a single failed boot, Windows will try to re-detect and re-install all of the drivers, which definitely won't be the most stable or newest.

I tried everything, flushing cache, resetting router, uninstalling the device completely from the list, removing the LAN connection entirely, none of those helped.
