  1. Windows 10 May 2021 update stalled


    Windows 10 upgrade assistant has been stalled at 99% for hours for the May, 2021 update. Tried copying and pasting the media folder as suggested by Microsoft but it got to 99 percent and advised that there was something open. I believe the only thing I have open is the update assistant. How can I finish this update? I'm on the third day of trying to get this completed.

    :)

    Upgrade to Windows 10 gets stuck at 99%

    If you are referring to Windows updates then follow the steps and check.

    Run the Update Troubleshooter on the computer.

    Windows 10 has a built-in troubleshooter to check and fix issues with Update. I would suggest you to run this troubleshooter to check if the issue is with your Windows update.

    Refer these steps:

    • Press Windows key +X, select Control panel.
    • Change the view by option on the top right to Large icons.
    • Click on Troubleshooting and click on the view all option on the left panel.
    • Run the Windows Update troubleshooter.
    • Restart the system and check if the issue is resolved.

    Do let us know the status of the issue to assist you further. Thank you.

    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

    Windows 10 Update stalled

    Windows Update on my Windows 10 system has been stalled for approximately one week. There is a long list of updates ready to install, but the last one - for Adobe Flash Player - is waiting to download. I have run the Windows Update troubleshooter but
    no problem is indicated. Is there any way I can remove this item from the update list so that the others will install?
