Windows 10: Windows 10 update still working update process without any progress

Again with the same problem with Microsoft update system, By the way many years ago I posted Windows 7 update process with its lethargy process of downloading and installing the update packages.

It seems nothing change.

So best solution I find by deactivating the update system, despite with criticism and recommendations from someone members, it still the best solution.

Now again it happens but with a lenovo 110S netbook with windows 10, where update process causes waste time.

In this case Lenovo development it seems dirt-cheap, with the design of the hardware where is common on others brands hardware development and memory capacity and so with others components.

On this case capacity of the hard disk it did not allow go through with the initial stage of the upgrade process, even by using an external pen-drive.

Solved this issue by eliminating as much as possible and finding that windows reports as 6GB in games option and without knowing how those 6GB have used, even if try to uninstall components it still reporting same value. It could get start with the update process but after complete downloading and installing update package it get back screen with “working with update.. x% without any change without progress .

Microsoft is still stubborn with the update system which it seems still without work only it causes a waste of time without solving anything.

Microsoft Decreasing Windows 10 Updates Downtime in Fall Creators Update

If you're a standard Windows user, you probably find Windows updates something of a pain - especially when they force you to reboot your PC after they're installed. But imagine you own a business that constantly has its machines up and running, but also requires the latest security upgrades; each minute of downtime for installing such updates is lost revenue. Because of that issue, which companies brought to Microsoft's attention over the years, the company is streamlining its update process, decreasing the amount of update steps that need to be taken offline (which means less time waiting for the machines to become available to use following an update.)











Usually, in updating your Windows system, there are two phases: an "online" phase, in which your PC automatically checks for new updates and actively downloads required system files while allowing you to keep using the computer for various tasks. The second "offline" phase is where the bulk of the work occurs during the update process, and doesn't allow the user to make use of the machine while this process is taking place (read reboot update sequences, for instance.) With Microsoft's latest streamlining process, two steps that previously took place during the "offline" phase will migrate to the online phase. Namely, 1) user content (apps/settings/configurations) back-up and the laying down of new OS files (Windows Image [WIM] process.)

Microsoft's Jason Howard, in a blog post for the upcoming Windows 10 Fall Creators Update, said that "By moving the old offline portions of the upgrade process to the online phase, upgrades will appear to take longer if you're watching or timing the progress. We didn't want to sacrifice usability for offline time so the upgrade processes are run at a lower priority to provide for best performance."
