Stuck at step 2 updated configuration
I have vista home prem 64 bit, it was automatic updates and did last night, I don't know what he was trying to load. He is stuck at step 2 of 3 Configuration of updates, it says 100% full and do not turn off your computer. It has been like this since at least 6-7 hours last night.
What to do?
Hi Randy,
It's been a while, we can think that the update is stuck and will not continue any further. You can press Ctrl, Alt & Del and open Task Manager. You should see the update on the Application tab, and you can select it and press end task.
Click on the start ORB > Control Panel > programs and features, on the left, select view installed updates and see if the update that was being Setup finished installing. If it does not have and does not appear on the list, you can restart your computer and try to install the update mode without failure.
To do this, restart your pc and even if your pc is booting press the key F8 on your keyboard to enter the Advanced Boot Options menu. On the Advanced Boot Options menu, select Safe Mode and press ENTER.
Your computer will boot mode safe by using only the basic drivers and services, hopefully allowing Windows Update to complete the installation of the update, you are having problems with.
Please let us know if you are making progress in this way.

My computer is stuck in the loop "Update Configuration". Boots only in safe mode.

iPhone 4S stuck in mode of update in the update iOS 9.3.4
Hi all
My iPhone 4S is stuck in mode of update by updating to iOS 9.3.3 9.3.4 iOS. Tried to hard reset the phone with alarm and keys "home" button, but without success. Attempts to restore the phone via the latest version of iTunes also failed with the error code update 29 each time indicating hardware problems. Do not understand how this can be hardware problem, if the phone worked fine before the update to iOS. Currently, the phone fails to start. Has anyone also faced problems similar with their devices during the upgrade to iOS 9.3.4 and is all their way out of this problem?
Hello

I have a 503WM Compaq Presario with Windows Vista Home Premium, which has problems after a Windows updated today. First of all, I have installed .NET Framework (3.5?). Windows Update started and downloaded a few other updates, and then asked to restart my computer - on restart received the updates configuration message, but when you have to configure the updates: phase 2 of 3-100% full. Do not turn off your computer, nothing happens--or my hard drive internal or external are doing something and Ctrl-Alt-Del does nothing. What should I do next?
Before that, I installed Hallmark Card Studio 2010 Deluxe and received an error message 2738. Followed the instructions on Microsoft to add two files that had to do with the VB script. Hallmark installation instructions downloaded then installed .NET Framework 3.5. The update of Windows has started and installed (I think) 4 critical updates.

Does not start: stuck at step of logo
My sansa clip + bought in February 2014 at amazon (fr) unbootable. I have to reset after each attempt to start 10 seconds by pressing the power button. After the reset, the logo disappears, but the player is no longer able to boot. If I connect it to my computer, the player is stuck at the same stage. The battery must be complete (I have Pascal view this information, of course) because I let my sansa clip + a long time to load.
The player is stuck at step of logo and never actually start. I can't access the file from a computer; so I can't upgrade the firmware to fix the bug...
Does anyone have an idea how to solve this problem? Is there a warranty for 8 months older products?
Hi PPrw, since it is still under warranty, I could check first and see if a replacement would be possible here.

Blue screen continues after the recent Windows updates - Update configuration 3 of 3 0%
original title: blue screen continues after the latest updates of Windows
Last Thursday while I was at work, an automatic update downloaded on my computer. When I got home, the blue screen has increased and said "update configuration". 3/3. 0%. Do not turn off your computer. Well, keep the computer restarts and the same screen appears. Over and over again. At least 40 times. Finally, I turned the computer off and when I turned it on... I hit 'f-11' and performed a scan on everything and everything was ok. Then I did a system restore point to before last week and he ran. When the computer is started again, the same "update configuration" screen always shows! How to do the work to turn back normally?

How to fix Windows update configured to never install drivers
None of my USB sticks work, says no driver installed. Troubleshooting report says "windows update configured in a way to never install drivers". How can I fix?
Hi Phil,
Thank you for your update on the issue.
- Have you tried to connect your USB stick with all the USB ports on your system?
- You are able to install all Windows updates.
As you have tried to choose the option always to install the best driver from Windows Update software already, I suggest once, click the radio button for Yes, this automatically (recommended), save changes and check if the problem persists.
Also, I suggest you try to remove and reinstall all USB controllers and check with the question.
- Open Manager devices by clicking the Start button, click Control Panel, click system and security, and then, under System, clicking Device Manager. If you are prompted for an administrator password or a confirmation, type the password or provide confirmation.
- In the list of the categories of equipment, locate and expand Bus USB controllers.
- Right-click every device under the Bus USB controllers node and then click Uninstall to remove them one at a time.
- Restart the computer and let the USB controllers get reinstalled.
- Plug in the removable USB device and test to make sure that the problem is solved.

Configuration updates stuck on step 3 0f 3-34% full.
Try to make a fairly significant update for Vista - I think I had about 24 updates total. For the last two hours, although it is stuck at 34%. I'm not sure what to do, either wait it out or try to reboot/restore to an earlier point. I also searched and did not find any similar problem (this is not the same as restarting without end about 0%). I'm starting to think that it will never go beyond this point. Any input or help would be greatly appreciated.
