How to fix Failure Configuring Windows Updates stuck at 35%
Hi guys, here I showed up on this video how to fix failure configuring windows updates stuck issue. There are several reasons behind the installation or finalization of windows updates can hang. Most often, these types of problems are due to a software conflict or much more rarely are they caused by a mistake on Microsoft's part regarding the update itself and any of Microsoft's OS could experience freezing, stops, hangs issues during windows updates including windows 10, windows 8.1, windows 7 and more.
The windows updates are probably stuck or frozen if you see one of the following messages persist for a long time.
Such as, #1. Preparing to configure windows, do not turn off your computer.
#2. Configuring windows updates, do not turn off your computer.
#3. Please do not power off or unplug your machine, installing update.
#4. Working on updates, don't turn off your computer.
#5. Keep your pc on until this is done, installing update.
And #6. Getting windows ready, don't turn off your computer.
Whatever, by following this instruction in this video, you can easily get the solution of this problem.

In Windows 7 Home Edition. After turning pc off and starting in Safe Mode, it goes right back to "Configuring Windows updates 35% complete". I've done this several times. Originally, I was attempting to download Windows 10. While downloading it froze up too.

@ChuckFinley2 4 года назад

Thanks. You saved an old computer. I left it in Safe mode for ~1 hour. It finally muscled it's way through and finished the updates. When I restarted it, it took a minute or 2 to load correctly. But it's up and running again.

@bizzhat 5 лет назад

THE ´REAL´ FIX: (how it worked for me - posting here to help ppl who came here for a fix to this shitty problem) 1. turn off computer by holding the ON/OFF button for 20 seconds 2. turn on the computer 3. the system should give you the option to start in ´safe mode´ - do that 4. wait all night for the damn update to finish (it WILL work eventually, do not be impatient or panic (like myself)) ------------ IF (if) this does not work, repeat step 1., at point 2. hit key F8 repeatedly and try starting system in other methods ----------- 5. most importantly; once on the windows desktop again, open (local disk) C: > Windows > and delete the folder Software Distribution (it will free up a ton of space, like u initially wanted, and also be automatically restored upon next startup. **if that does not work: go to Downloads (of the Software Distribution folder) and delete all folders -> u can also do this for other computers to free up the space. (dont forget to empty the recycle bin, run CCleaner or do it manually, restart, done!) -> found this info in a microsoft help thread.

So I shut down it start again in safe and waited for another 2 hrs. Still nothing. So I grabbed my laptop and threw it out the window.

@richpaul8132 6 лет назад

Hey, GD ChrmatiQ (and others with the same results); check out my second post that I wrote to the topic starter (7-27-18 @ about 7:30PM). You'll see that I also got the same stuck-loop problem in Safe Mode as you did but as I was writing my comment about it, I left the computer running. I guess it was about 10 minutes later, that I realized the computer managed to get through. My point is that perhaps you should let it run in that stuck-loop after rebooting to Safe Mode. My computers are custom built, high-performance systems. They're overclocked CPUs and run very fast. That may have a bearing on how long it'll take for a computer with less power. On the other hand, it may not have anything to do with it, I don't know. Just give it a try and let it run for as long as 30 minutes. See what happens. Rich

thank you for this helpful video. I also had the stuck at 35% window in safe mode, but at about thirty minutes it went away and I was able to follow your protocols, after which time I was able to successfully restart and use my computers. for what it's worth, I think your voice, accent and english are fantastic, although my musical tastes are different, I appreciate the sounds over silence while I waited for my computer to slog through the steps. thank you again!!

@antonyia64 5 лет назад

So many ignorant ungrateful comments on here. After watching and listening carefully (with one's eyes and ears) I followed everything you said. My pc started to configure the updates again after a restart and took a long time and u thought it was not working. Then it started a cleanup mode which took another while and again I thought it's not going to work. But after weeks of avoiding using the pc to do anything on as it's been a right pain to even startup it now works again. Thank you very much 👏

@wendybrown4735 5 лет назад

So I have a question. I booted in safe mode, however it then wouldn't let sign back in. So I did without using safe mode. Can you tell me why to use safe mode opposed to just using it with signed in? Second, when we change to manual will we still get Window updates? Third, there are a lot of updates to delete, on my system, this has gone on for some years now. Is there another location in which to delete those unsuccessful window updates.You did a wonderful job with explaining, regardless of the comments of the accent, its rather thick, however it you just listen and follow the steps being shown, it was easy.Thanks a lot

@thineshkumar7360 4 года назад

Thanks a lot man! I had it loading 35% even on safe mode. But after an hour my laptop managed to go through. Then I followed your steps and its back to normal.

@lisandroflores5154 11 месяцев назад

So what would you recommend? following these steps, and then just restart and wait? Because I see 35% again, after doing what the video says...

@mrlowcap 4 года назад

Looks like having done a disc clean up previously has something to do with this being stuck. I had no idea it even needed an update. Currently in Safe Mode and its trying to configure update at 35%. I've hooked it up to router with ethernet cable. Hope this works 🙏🏼 Update: it worked! But I'm backing everything up and investing in a new piece of hardware. This has served me well for 8 years.

Though I realize you selected "Safe Mode", not "Safe Mode with Networking" and that may make a difference. I'm going to try it that way, ("Safe Mode" only) and see if it works but I must confess that I'm extremely skeptical. It just doesn't seem to me that the Safe Mode with Networking would make any difference, but I'll try it and I will return with the results. Thanks again, Rich
