  1. Windows 10 update stuck on “this will take several minutes”.


    I have bought a new laptop and when I was setting it up it asked me whether I want to install the latest windows update. I clicked yes and I think this was the 2020-01 windows 10 update, it took me to the screen “this will take several minutes”, however I have been stuck for approx 7 hours. Does it take that long or even longer or is there a problem and what are the necessary solutions,i would appreciate your help.

    :)

    Windows Update Stuck

    Updating my laptop which I haven't used for 6 months.
    I go to Settings, Update and Security, and there are a list of 10 updates, 2 of which say pending install, the others say pending download. Left laptop on overnight and still saying the same this morning.
    Ran Windows Troubleshooting Updates twice, both times found no problem.
    Have good Wi-Fi signal. Have re-booted several times. Now stuck. Can you please suggest how I get round this please.

    Microsoft to make Windows 10 updates mandatory

    Well, at the moment at least, you can choose to defer upgrades. Under Settings > Windows Updates > Advanced options you need to check the box labeled "Defer upgrades". What does that do? Good question. The answer I've found might illuminate it to a degree.

    I hear this only applies to Pro and Enterprise editions. But I can't verify that.
