Windows 10 taking for ever to install
Windows 10 taking for ever to install
I’ve managed everyone’s computer systems, but some took a long time to complete.
It's not only the server that's full—using the tool on the Microsoft site makes it slow. I tried another way, which worked better for three of my systems.
Open "C:\Windows\SoftwareDistribution\Download" and remove all files there. Next, execute the command prompt with admin privileges and input "wuauclt.exe /updatenow". Then navigate to Control Panel, select Windows Update, and your Windows 10 should begin downloading again from the beginning, ideally without issues this time. Did the Windows update complete?
You're still at 32% and wondering if you can reverse the update to Windows again.
You're running the installation process, not Windows itself. To restart it, close the current window and launch the installer again from your system tray or start menu. If you need further help, let me know!
