Message loop "the configuration of the Windows updates failed. Restoration of the changes. Do not turn off your computer. »
I had to edit this post, because I was the lack of information on my problem...
Well that's even once...
I decided to give maintenance to my laptop then I formatted last night then in the morning, I started today with the updates of windows (was the first thing I did, so I haven't installed programs). It started to download as 110 updates, when you're done, asked me to restart, and I did. As at other times, it configures the first 30% before restarting, and when it restarts then got stuck in the message of "Configuration of the Windows updates... failure. It takes like 20-30 minutes to restart, and when he does, still happens once, I mean the restart and the same message. So I can not connect or anything.
Some features:
Laptop: Toshiba Qosmio x 875
Processor: Intel core i7-3630QM CPU 2 .40GHz
RAM: 12 GB
System: Windows 8 64-bit
GPU: Nvidia GTX 670M / 3GB
2 500 GB HARD drive, don't know the model or brand
I have not yet installed antivirus, in fact I uninstalled Norton to install Kaspersky later, but I'm stuck with the real problem.
I bought this laptop as 14 months ago, is the first time the problem appears.
I have not tried certain steps of the links because some of them need to connect.
Thank you, hope someone can help me.

Greetings,
I installed updates in my Windows 8.1 partition. Then he asked me to restart the computer, and the message "we could not finish updates, exchange loss, do not turn off your computer" appeared and was on-screen for hours. I thought to reinstall bootcamp but I have software in the Windows partition that cannot be recovered. I read that one of them starts Windows in 'Safe' Mode, but this is not possible. I use a MacBook Pro (retina, 13 inches, early 2015) OS X 10.10.5
How can I fix this without wiping the Windows partition and lose my software?
Thank you!
Have you created a Windows system restore point before the upgrade?

Error "FAILED TO CONFIGURE UPDATES of SYSYTEM REVENANT of CHANGES DO NOT turn OFF YOUR COMPUTER"
Respected by all,
Could someone help me please with the problem. I can't access the windows at all. It has blue screen that says "FAILURE TO CONFIGURE updates SYSYTEM RESTORE CHANGES updated DO NOT turn OFF YOUR COMPUTER" pls help
You may need to stay on this screen for not more than one hour, if there are serious problems with Windows Update.
If you can always access your PC after waiting, turn off your PC. Then turn it on, immediately pressing F8 constantly. Once you get a black screen with options, select Safe Mode with the arrow keys and press enter on your keyboard.
Once Windows finishes loading of files, you can start in safe mode, where you should be able to log on normally. You will notice that the screen resolution has changed, and when you log in, you will see a black desktop computer. This lets you know that you are using safe mode. Once you log on, restart normally.

I have a Dell Inspiron 1525 with Windows Vista, and I have tried the following to fix my endless reboot with the "Configuring updates: stage 3 of 3 0% complete.". Do not turn off your computer. »
- I inserted the cd 'Réinstallation DVD Windows Vista', but it won't pop up any kind of prompt for me to do something with it. I tried putting the cd in what was on the computer and tried leaving him in and restart it - but the cd has no EFFECT.
- I used the F8 key and I tried the following with no luck: safe mode, safe mode with network, safe mode w / command prompt, enable logging, last known good configuration (Advanced) boot and debug mode. Most of these options make the monitor off (to make you think he will do something), then it just restarts and did the thing reboot loop again and again.
- I also tried the repair your computer option to the F8 key. He asks me to log in as an administrator (but my password does not work). So, I use the menu drop down and choose the name of my computer and then use my password, and I can connect to "restoration of access options '. Once I'm in the "System Recovery Options". I tried the following with no luck: Startup Repair tool, restore the system, Windows complete PC Restore, Windows Memory Diagnostic tool and command prompt. THE only ONE that I HAVE NOT YET TRIED it IS THE "DELL FACTORY IMAGE RESTORE", it's because I want to try to fix it without losing everything on my hard drive. Here are the details of the I've tried in the "System Recovery Options".
- The command prompt says: 32 X:\Windows\system > (I have no idea how to use it, but it's what he says)
- The memory diagnostic tool reboots the computer, but nothing new happening (just reboot over and over again)
- In the PC restore full Windows: I tried to put the Windows Vista CD in, but it can not find a valid backup location
- When I click on the system restore: it is said: "no restore points were created on your computer's system disk. To create a restore open system protection point. When I click on the system protection, it is said: "your computer is running in a limited diagnostic State. If you use the system restore in this limited State, you can't undo the restore operation. Help topics are not available in this State. " So I press OK, and I'm back to square one.
- When I click on startup repair: it says "Startup Repair could not detect a problem.
- I know there are many many posts on this problem, and I think I've tried all the suggestions on how to solve the problem, but they do not work for me.
- PLEASE HELP ME! I need my computer for my college work. I can't borrow laptop my friend forever!
