Encountered an issue where the 10 update remains at 55%.
Encountered an issue where the 10 update remains at 55%.
I head to work soon. I began the Windows 10 update some time ago and have been stuck on the grey screen at 55% for over an hour and a half, showing "Configuring update for windows 10 xx% complete Do not turn off your computer." I’m planning to keep this thread in advanced so others can help with troubleshooting. This way, I won’t waste time searching when I get back from work, as the only choice is to shut down the system now.
Hello, I'm facing the same problem. After upgrading from Windows 8.1, I had enough storage but now encounter a message saying "configuring update for windows 10 55% complete – do not turn off your computer." A looping circle appears and has persisted for about four hours. What should I do? Should I power off the PC? Thank you.
Let me know if you're willing to try and see what happens. I'm stuck at work for another four hours.
So, am I glad that I'm not the only one with the exact same problem - or disappointed that upgrading 8.1 to ten may result in... ? I shudder to think. I installed this on an OLD laptop, the oldest & slowest one I own. Made the transition from win 7 home premium to win 10 seamlessly. I'm posting this message from that computer, using win 10. My NEWEST laptop is running win 8.1. "Configuring...55%...Do Not..." Both computers have been well maintained, have limited amounts of software, cleaned up with CCleaner almost daily... actively stripped of junk. The 8.1 to 10 conversion has been stuck this way for over two hours. Does Microsoft have any advice about how to cope with this?? Apparently not. Apparently, they NEVER ENCOUNTERED THE ISSUE. [That was sarcasm, btw.] And they still have no comment now that it's well documented. I sure hope someone on this thread finds an answer, or that MS posts one... Sheesh... It's only all of my hobbies dead in the water... OK, now the beast has gone to sleep on me - woke it up. Still at 55%... Give up for the night. Maybe tomorrow morning Santa Clause will have slipped down the chimney and brought me a new OS.
I was chatting with MS support, who advised just forcing a shutdown would work. They then guided me through some troubleshooting I've completed many times before, so I'm going to retry the download and try again, hoping it will succeed.
You're experiencing the same issue repeatedly, with the system warning "conf..55%...Do not turn..." and then restarting. It loops back to the blue screen and the same message. Someone, please suggest a solution or help!
