Looking for:
Windows feature update 1709

Thanks for this extensive post, it really helped me! RM March 8, am. I have found that most of the time, the update fails because of a driver issue. I’ve done several 20 failures so far, and all had an issue with at least one driver.
The indicator is in the txt file generated by the update cycle and rollback. The video failure will also flash a momentary message across the screen when the update hits the wall and initiates a roll back. I now have a string of successfully completed updated machines. Joe Meree February 27, am. To fix this I did all this and it didn’t work. Then: 1. Go here and get the fall creator update click update now and download it 7. Srboljub March 3, am. After so many attempts I did this and it worked.
Performed clean windows start find how to do clean windows start 3. Then I pressed “check for updates” and finally finished. Restored normal windows start undo what I did in line 2. John February 23, pm. None of these did it for me. I have 2 Lenovo T one running Home, the other Pro. The pro updated fine. Seems no matter how many different “solutions” from various forums I try I end up the same. After download and restart I see a minimal amount of disk activity, then the system just sits there.
It could be 2,3,4,12 hrs. I’ve repeated this for 3 days. After a forced shutdown and restart it reverts back to the old version, reporting the update wasn’t completed with error 0x I ran “solutions” specific to that error code with no help as well.
I’ve run the Windows update troubleshooter with no help. Truely frustrating. Jules February 19, pm. Bob February 19, am. Unfortunately none of these methods worked, but Thank you I think they helped me resolve the issue.
Whilst downloading the update manually, I found a troubleshooting tool. The update failed, ran SFC and Dism, the update still failed. Just before doing a reinstall I decided to shutdown all Defender services and firewall and then tried the update and it worked.
I haven’t tried on another device, yet, but I hope this help others. Dennis February 19, am. Windows tried to install the update 59 times going by the update history, with your help i think its finally done. Thanks so much…. J February 12, pm. I’ve now gotten to the point where I am disabling the update altogether Method 6 however, after a couple of days, Ill find that it has re-enabled itself and the download process begins all over again.
Is this just for me? Is there a solution? DiamondDave October 3, am. I’ve had the exact same problem. Then a few days later it re-enables itself and I get a blue box appear in the middle of my screen telling me “Can’t download updates”…etc…etc. Kroxo February 10, pm. I’ve got “Issue 2” on two computers, both purchased before I tried steps , nothing worked. I finally disabled the update step 6 and purchased new hardware. The old computers are new dedicated video servers for my TVs.
Kroxo: Try to repair Windows 10 with an in-place upgrade method 5 and additionally see this comprehensive guide to fix Windows 10 update problems. Amanda February 4, am. I wish I could say for sure which, but after attempting Method 2, 3 and then 4 without success on their own, I went back and did Method 1 all the way through 4…at first it didn’t seem like even that would work. This time however, after booting up again, when I open Windows Update…my system says it’s up to date.
I even reloaded it to make sure. Here’s hoping it stays that way, because honestly that was the most frustrating experience I’ve had with a PC in a long time. Amanda February 5, am. Well, unfortunately a few hours later it’s now telling me I need to update again. At this point, I’m so frustrated that I’m about to just do a reinstall. I’m currently backing up all of my personal files, as well as my games, and I’m going to give the above methods one more shot before reinstalling.
Here’s hoping one more shot works…. Tim January 29, pm. Jim Webber January 28, pm. Microsoft has now become much more aggressive at pushing this update. It starts to download and install soon after you logon.
If it the fails to install properly, it tries again next day. Since it downloads the update from scratch each time, you quickly use up a lot of your monthly bandwidth. After numerous attempts at applying fixes, disabling anti-virus etc I am giving up and have disabled the Windows Update. CyberWarrior January 28, pm. I have googled this and none of these fixes worked for me and I tried them all.
The only thing that worked was reformatting. My computer is now all up t date and running perfectly. Virginia January 28, am. I have noticed that the update has a lot of issues with older Intel chipsets.
A quick check on Intel’s site can prevent a lot of issues. You are likely good if there are Windows 10 drivers, if not. I tried method 2 after uninstalling anti malware and removing all USB connections and running the troubleshoot windows update. It ran slowly but got there eventually. This was the 6th time I had tried it but the advice I got here helped enormously. Bob Herring January 24, pm. Thanks so much. I was determined to fix it myself so thx.
John D January 24, am. Why doesn’t Microsoft fix this? That is, 1 do a new update that does not cause all these problems but does give the same or better security, and does not have the supergraphics stuff that most people don’t need, and 2 give us a tool to make Win10 stop trying to install every day!
Every day, it slows down and interferes with using the computer! I know, MS should have fixed this months ago? I had the same problem and tried everything and nothing worked.
I finally decided to reformat and now everything is updated and working fine. Vasilis January 13, pm. I tried to install this update a couple of times but it didn t work…. I m using my pc at home to run some music programms and for gaming so i didn t care much…..
Yesterday I decided to install a copy of windows 10 again because time was right to format my pc….. I found this page and thought to give one solution a try and if it didn t work i couldn t care less.
I tried the first one and it worked right away…… I m writting here so that a feedback of your work can be known……. Thanks for your help…..!!!! Jim A January 13, am. None of these methods worked for me. Four days i read on internet and tested different methods. Then i mounted the image right click on Windows. In 45 minutes my system was updated without lost of data at installation point when you are asked to choose to keep my files or clean install i choose to keep my files.
The pc restarted few times. Now is working fine. Escuse me for spell. January 19, am. After at least 7 attempts I changed my outdated graphics card and then followed the steps above by Jim A, worked for me… Thanks. Clint January 23, pm. Bill Harroff January 13, am. I have tried more than 30x to update to Windows 10, version since early December.
I have run the various troubleshooting apps that come with Windows. I have also tried the “top 5” fixes listed here. None have helped.
You can schedule the right time: just pick a time that works best for you or set a new reminder for tomorrow. A final reminder alerts you 15 minutes before your device is scheduled to reboot, so you can properly save and close out of what you are doing.

Windows 10 is a service, which means it’s always up to date and your PC always has the latest and best features. It’ll be available soon. If the setting to defer upgrades is turned on, you may not get the update immediately.
Windows will allow you to reset the update schedule up to five days later. A prompt will appear indicating that the corruption in-store components have been repaired. Close the window and restart the PC. Find Windows Update Service and double click to open Properties. Set Startup type to Disabled and select OK. Restart PC.

FIX: Windows 10 Update fails to install (Solved) – replace.me – Windows Tips & How-tos
Thanks for resolving this, pity Microsoft does not step up and make this known. To be honest, as time goes on I wonder if this OS is going to hold up. Scott June 3, pm. Paul June 15, am. Thanks to those who suggested removing the WiFi card, then running the update. It worked. Nothing else did, after days lost trying different methods…and on and on.

Greg Albrecht May 20, am. Been working with 3 computers during this whole update ordeal. It updated to perfectly with no problem. After going over the five possible fixes and reading several of the these posts, it appears the only way to update is to wipe everything and start with a fresh install of the OS and then reinstall stuff like Office for which I have no idea where my activation card is.
Normally, I would just extend my Office subscription to this machine, but I donated it to a friend. So, I’ve decided in this instance, to forgo the update rather than go thru hell as many of you have. I actually like some of the upgraded features on my other two machines, however MS should have anticipated that some machines could not be updated and did a little homework on this before releasing the update and saved many of us a lot of time.
Cecilia Ramos May 19, am. Had to contact Microsoft Support. They had to ghost onto my computer, uninstall updates and then get my computer to take the Critical Update It was the only thing that worked.
Critical Update has a major issue which with Updates. Took hours and Support was really good about calling me back and checking on the progress and then testing my computer after the install processed. Harry Tuluhungwa May 13, pm. Like you I went through a nightmare.

Finally, booting from a USB drive worked this time failed in a previous attempt , so I’m really relieved that this 6 month saga has come to a close! I was seriously thinking of getting a new laptop or PC, although I don’t use my home computer much.
Robert April 15, pm. Wow, thanks so much for this information. Fix 1 worked like magic for me. I had to uninstall Avast and took out my usb mouse device. Just what the doctor ordered.

I decided to reinstall, but even after reinstalling Windows cleanly, I still had boot problems. Apparently, some kind of problem was introduced in the driver for this thing in Win10 John April 10, pm.
Many, many thanks for the tutorial. I have worked on this problem for over two months without any success. Method 1 worked perfectly! Can’t thank you enough!!!
Maxim April 8, am. Worked for me. Tayler April 4, pm. I was using a secure Wi-Fi hotspot when the update started downloading.

Then I uninstalled wireless card drivers. The same problem. Finally , I physically removed the Wireless card from the computer. The update completed without any issues. The WIFI card was the culprit.

Issue No1: When the download of Windows 10 Fall Creators Update version is completed, Windows asks to restart the system to install the update. After the system’s restart, the Fall Creator Update is not installed and at the Update history you receive the following error: “Feature update to Windows 10, version Failed to install…” error: 0x In this tutorial you ‘ll find detailed instructions to resolve problems when installing the Windows 10 Fall Creators Update Suggestions: Before proceeding to update your system: 1.
Completely uninstall the antivirus program or any other security program from your system. Disconnect any USB connected devices that you don’t need. Be patient…the update takes a few hours to download and install.
In many cases, the “SoftwareDistribution” folder’s contents become corrupted and cause problems during downloading or installing updates.
At these cases all these problems can be easily bypassed if you delete the “SoftwareDistribution” folder. Type the following command and press OK.
From the list of services, at the right pane locate the Windows Update service. Right click on “Windows Update” service and choose Stop. Close “Services” window. Double click on it to open its Properties. Set the Startup type to Disabled and click OK. Restart you computer. After restart, continue to the next step. Locate and then Delete the SoftwareDistribution folder.
If you cannot delete the folder with error “Folder in use — try again”, then restart Windows in “Safe Mode” and repeat the procedure. Restart your computer. Check for updates and install them. The next method, to resolve the issues while downloading or installing the Windows 10 Fall Creators update , is to download and install the update using the “Windows Update Assistant”: To do that:.
Navigate to Windows 10 download site and click the Update now button. When asked, click to Run the “Windows10Upgrade Finally click the Update Now button and follow the on screen prompts to install the Update.
If you still experience problems with the Windows Update installation, then try to repair Windows System files by using the SFC command line tool.
To do that:. In the Search box type: cmd or command prompt. Right click on the command prompt result and select Run as Administrator. Open Command Prompt as Administrator. Be patient until DISM repairs component store.
When the operation is completed, you should be informed that the component store corruption was repaired. Close command prompt window and restart your computer. Another method that usually works, to fix Windows 10 update problems, is to perform a Windows 10 Repair-Upgrade.

I had no idea but one time when saving some files from another PC I had copied a whole directory, and inside it was a copy of the Nero file that had never been used, it even wouldn’t start since it wasn’t actually installed.
So the installer would be looking everywhere on my drives until it found that deep inside some directory and then stop everything!!

I have a Gateway computer. I tried everything to update to , but nothing worked. Then I uninstalled wireless card drivers. The same problem. Because these vulnerabilities start at the processor level, however, having the latest Windows operating system OS updates is not sufficient to be fully protected; you will also need to install related firmware updates from your device manufacturer.
Lastly, ensuring your antivirus products are up-to-date for example, Windows Defender is available in-box for free and updates automatically and that you are backing up critical files to the cloud remain best practices. For those with automatic updates enabled, Windows 10 will continue to provide the latest monthly security updates to help keep your information and your device protected.
You can schedule the right time: just pick a time that works best for you or set a new reminder for tomorrow. Change [Show the touch keyboard when not in tablet mode and there’s no keyboard attached] to on. Windows 10 is a service, which means it’s always up to date and your PC always has the latest and best features. It’ll be available soon. If the setting to defer upgrades is turned on, you may not get the update immediately. Windows will allow you to reset the update schedule up to five days later.
However, you can only use this reschedule option once. Any update installed on your PC before the Windows 10 Fall Creators Update will no longer be listed in your update history. Top of Page.
