    Hello

    I have a problem with my Windows 10 PC. After updating to the newest version, 20H2, it seems like something went wrong.

    First of all, I saw that in the power options from Start there still appears the options to restart

    After that, I opened settings and it is stuck at Please wait.

    I let it some time...and nothing changed.

    The same problem appeared on my laptop, but after a forced restart, and a sfc /scannow it solved.

    But on the PC I tried both the DISM.exe /Online /Cleanup-image /Restorehealth command, and then the sfc /scannow, but nothing...

    I restarted it and I noticed if I press restart and update option, it takes longer to restart, but after that it closed.

    I don't know what else to do, please help! Windows Update stuck at please wait 2f924007-7de9-4f9e-a121-8b2e84278f26?upload=true.png Windows Update stuck at please wait a5382a17-cfec-41db-965f-ee138bb929ff?upload=true.png

    Win10: windows update stuck at never ending loop ?

    When in win10:
    • Update&security -> Windows update -> Finding update... .... .... ....
    Planning to download the latest Win10.ISO (vers.1803) and manually update:
    - Then wait that my ordered new SSD arrives and clone the old HDD to it.

  3. windows update stuck at installation screen and cannot get to desktop

    Hi Sue,

    To understand the issue better, I would like to ask some questions:

    • Is the computer stuck in the Installing updates screen?
    • For how long is the computer stuck in the screen?
    • When was the computer last updated?
    • Is the screen showing any percentage of installation?

    Sometimes the installation might take a long time to install if the update is of large size. So, I suggest you to wait for sometime and check if the system boots to the desktop. If it is taking a longer time, then perform a Power Drain by following the steps
    provided below:

    • Shut down the Computer.
    • Remove all power source (including battery if it is a laptop).
    • Press and hold the power button for 15-20 seconds.
    • Connect the power source and start the computer.
    • After the computer boots to the desktop, suggest you to install all the pending updates.

    Hope this helps. Keep us posted on the status for further assistance.

    Thank you.
