    Hey Windows Update Stalled - unable to reboot 1854d827-0497-43d8-95c6-b842ed64cfb1?upload=true.jpg


    The latest Windows Update has frozen / stalled - what ever you wish to call it.

    37 hrs later it is still on 91%.

    Have powered down using Power button. When I turn it back on, it starts on the 'update page'. No boot, no intro, nothing, just straight to that page again.

    Tried ctl+alt+del which does nothing.


    Suggestions on how to fix this?

    :)

    Hi Trevor,

    Please answer these question to assist you better.

    When you say 'update to Windows 10 stalling at 99%' are you referring to upgrade to Windows 10 is stuck or unable to update Windows to different builds?

    If your upgrade to Windows 10 Is stuck at 99% then refer the link below suggested by

    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.

    Windows Update suddenly hangs?

    Windows Update is suddenly hanging for some reason... I went and downloaded and installed the first bunch of updates, restarted when asked, and now when I go back to windows update I just get the window with a white box forever. Reboot and it still does it. This happens to be on my main machine, running windows 7.

    I've also noticed when I reboot it says configuring windows update, step 3 of 3, 47%. Maybe it somehow skipped something and is screwed forever?
