Windows 10: Yet AGAIN a W11 update has stopped my PC restarting. What do I do?

Yet AGAIN a W11 update has stopped my PC restarting.What do I do?It's stuck on trying to do an automatic repair, then keeps going through startup, automatic repair, startup, automatic repair etc., it's in a loop.I bought it new in December with W11 pre-installed and this is the THIRD update in just 4 months that has forced me to seek help.The last occasion was in February, when I was guided through a complete reinstall!Is there a problem with the hardware or is it to do with Microsoft?Please help as I can no longer work today!

stop w11

Hmmmmm, restarted the W11 update and it got to 8% and stopped with this message: "This update can't be downloaded and installed because it's not yet ready for your device" I know my hardware is OK as I checked some time back. It may be because I have Winaero tweaker and Spybot beacon set to change some settings and block whatever telemetry etc relates to M$ sneaking around. Not to worry, if that stops W11 all the better *Smile

 

Windows Updated(16299.309).KB4088776 Restart is required to complete.

Hi dalchina. Good news, I followed your suggestion and reinstalled the update and now it appears as "installed correctly" *Biggrin Maybe it was not necessary to run the Windows Update Troubleshooter or maybe if necessary. But using it I do not think it could have worsened something. The installation was very fast, unlike the first time it showed step 1 and step 2 completed.

Thanks for the suggestions and for the time to respond Best regards.


And thanks for the tip of that program, I'll have it on my list.

 

Printing stopped with November upgrade

Hey Prestonpdx,

I would suggest you check if the print spooler is running. Start/Stop print spooler service. Follow the steps below.

• 
  Press Windows key + R, type services.msc
  and press Enter.
  
• 
  From the list, locate Print Spooler service.
  
• 
  Double click on the service and select Stop.
  
• 
  Restart the computer, repeat step 1&2.
  
• 
  Double click on the service and check if the service is started.
