Windows 8stuck in please wait after update

Hello.

our PC restarted after the installation of updates and is stuck in blue screen 'Please wait '. I looked at the post on the community, but all references to options like the etc SafeMode depend on you being able to open a session. Impossible to find and do not know if we have a code of disc or activation of recovery. Is it possible to get fashionable or the bios startup or they remoeved options useful?

Hi Ian,

This problem can occur if the update has not been installed correctly or some system files have been corrupted.

When you say "Please wait" can you give us the full error you see on the screen?

To solve this problem we need an installation media to boot to the Windows Recovery Partition, or if your laptop came built-in with Windows 8 it must have a built-in recovery partition.

Boot from the recovery partition of Windows using the recovery or recovery 8 Windows partition or the installation media.

Once you're on the Windows recovery options, please restore the system from there.

Reference:

"Configuration of the Windows updates failed. Restoration of the changes. Do not turn off your computer"error when you try to install Windows updates

* Creation *.

Make sure you get the computer back to the Normal start once you have completed the troubleshooting steps.

Make sure that you back up the data on the computer before you continue.

To learn more about the recovery options to include the following link:

I hope this helps. Please let us know the result.

    Thanks for the answers on the community forum.

    This seems to be defined as you said it happens after a reinstall of ITUNES.  Why don't you try not running through the steps in a clean boot process to determine exactly what conflicts with this configuration.

    Try step 1 clean boot and see if you get the error, otherwise go to step two, then step 3 and step up to the process that blocks the start is identified.

  • Windows 7 does not stop after updates

    My computer will not stop after you install updates. What is the best way to solve the problem?

    Thank you
    Cam1956

    Hi cam1956,

    The updates take time depending on the size of the file. If the update has hung so I suggest you hard reboot the computer and see if you can boot to the desktop. If you can boot to the desktop and then the updates are not installed will appear and which will be installed during the next update.

    Run the troubleshooter in Windows 7 for Windows Update turn when starting the computer on the desk, and perhaps that should take care of the updates. Install updates by selecting two to both as the updates and see update is actually causing the problem.

    Once you have identified the update that causes the problem, you can access the link below and install the updates manually.

    http://support.Microsoft.com/default.aspx/GP/downloadover/en-AU#TAB0

    If you know the updates that must be installed, you can manually enter the KB update in the search bar the link to download the update manually.

    If the computer does not start on the desktop, then I suggest you to start safe mode and see if you can boot to the desktop. If you are in the office, do a system restore which will take the computer to a time where it was working fine and then start to install the updates manually as suggested above.

    Go to the link below for the procedure to start in Safe Mode and system restore.

  • Windows 7 does not start after update

    My problem started with an automatic update in the last 48 hours. Worked well previously. After installing the update? I'm more able to start. BIOS works great and then Windows 7 hangs at the homepage. I tried to restore it on several points and now he is responsible for the paper painted and hangs there.

    Under Update installed, the newest I see one is June 11. I don't see the dates for updates of office 2007 etc..

    It starts in safe mode with network fine. I used the windows disk to start troubleshooting and restoration. Any ideas on the next steps? Not a problem before the updates. I'll turn off the automatic updates but you need to know how to precede to recover my computer

    Hi PMMDOC,
     
    I assume that your system works very well after running system restore from the system recovery options .
     
    After the system restore, you can install the updates manually one by one to check the update is causing the problem to occur.
     
    If the problem persists, you can do the Startup Repair by using the Windows 7 installation disc. It will automatically fix problems that prevent Windows to start.
     
    If you want as follows to disable automatic updates , you can follow the steps from the link below. (not recommended)
    http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows7/turn-automatic-updating-on-or-off
    Alternatively, you can install all updates in a clean boot State.

  • Says Windows 8 is not activated after update to my laptop.

    So earlier today my laptop was slow so I decided to update it. After this refresh, it now says that my product key is used on a different PC and gives me this error code in the details of the activation: 0xC004C008. He also says "" the activation server reported that the product key has exceeded there unlock limit. ""
    I don't see why it does this because I updated my laptop before and I had no such problems. Is it possible to fix this?

    1. press the Windows key + X , and then clickrun, and then type: slui.exe 4


    2. then press the ENTER"" key.

    3. Select your "country" in the list.

    4. choose the option "activate phone".

  • Windows XP hangs on startup after update 2.0.2.

    Hi, I am a new user of Vmware Fusion (or Mac for that matter) so if you think that my problem happened to be quite some pretty stupid mistakes on my part.

    Tuesday, I just noticed that the update to version 2.0.2 and downloaded at short notice. The program wasn't on my Windows XP has been suspended, and I made the mistake of not the have stopped even if it has been suspended. I install the new update without problem, but when I restart my computer and turn it on... Well that's the point that I realized that my windows account is always logged. I noticed that he was waiting to load something, the pointer is an hourglass. But it not let me restart my computer regularly. But once it starts, it freezes on the loading screen windows. Not sure what to do, I'm forced to reboot through the merger of WMware toolbar command. He now says he needs to check a large number of files truncates the files on it, but during the process. It happened pretty fast so I have not heard what it was, but after that, he reached an error and blue screen and tries to restart. At this stage let load normally just gives the same error message, and if I go to safe mode, it just freezes. I noticed that avast trying to do something before the error message. See the attached screenshots for what I mean.

    He also tells me that VMware Tools is not updated, but when I try to update, it doesn't really do anything. I don't think it would work until she starts toward the top right (that I can't do). and unfortunately, I was not smart enough to have a backup of my desktop files (which I need), nor has the Snapshot function before my problem.

    There is a simple problem that solves that I'm not aware of the problem?

    If not, will reinstall the fix (assuming it will work directly in my new v2.0.2)?

    If I reinstall it, is there a way to access the files on Windows XP through my Mac OSX? I can't of course through the Wmware Fusion.

    I'm sorry that if this is not the right place to ask about this, I was directed here through the support for the view part after watching a response.

    There are several thing you can try and basically the same things as if it were a physical machine as the boot with the XP install CD / ISO Image and either use the Recovery Console to repair the registry or do a repair install, but the first thing first of all try to mount the virtual hard drive and retrieve your user data , then, first of all make a backup of the entire Virtual Machine assuming that it is a normal base file Virtual Machine and the Boot Camp partition.

    Take a look at: VMware Fusion (menu bar) > help > VMware Fusion help > managing Virtual Machines > VMDKMounter to help mount a virtual drive as a Mac Volume

    Note: If VMDKMounter is mounted with success you will be unwise and a titled Untitled white drive icon should appear on your desktop.

    Also use VMDKMounter with the Virtual Machine, not suspended and merger shutdown closed...

    Thank you for posting.   This has happened after every update or y at - it a specific update that has failed and continues to try to run and causing your problem?  If this is the same update several times not I would recommend is not running.  If the failure occurs after each update and the updates are always different, then that is indicative of a more serious problem.  Let us know.

    Hi, I have a laptop HP Windows 8.1 and I noticed after I did the update to the BIOS of HP Support Assistant, it restarts randomly without any error message.  Is it possible to restore the BIOS if it is a BIOS problem?  The computer works fine but it restarts randomly each time than in quite awhile.

    You can restore the BIOS to the previous version by using the firmware management option in PC UEFI diagnostics.

    Plug the AC adapter and press the power button.

    Immediately, press the ESC key to call the start menu.

    Now, press the F2 key to enter the diagnosis.

    Choose firmware management.

    In the management of the firmware, you should see the option to restore the BIOS. Select it and let it do its job.

  • Windows Vista fails to boot after updates combined with Mcafee instalation.

    The laptop is a 2007 medion mim2330 running 32 bit vista Basic.  He was protected by Bullguard, but it had expired and has been exceeded. A message appeared on the screen WARNING french that he had been infected by a virus - it does not look official and I am not sure that he clicked on the option to download solution - however the phone still worked. I had a Mcafee 3 user license and wanted to install it so I uninstalled bullguard and installed Mcafee process windows crashed and failed to WINDOWS START SCREEN appeared and I was unable to boot windown in any mode. I gave the phone to a knowledgeable friend who said it was a virus, but did not know that one - he said, it has been deleted, all hardware tests had been run and it was perfect. It has resized the partition of disk doing a great score including a remains a very small. He reloaded windows with avast antivirus and gave the laptop back to work. I wanted to use the Mcafee I had paid for, so I uninstalled avast and installed Mcafee. Everything went well and the laptop worked - however the mcafee warning sign came up saying scan in real time has been disabled - he turned back, but a few minutes it turned off again. I have contacted Mcafee used virtual tech then chatted in their eng who suspected a virus, a virus scanner from mcafee, rather than the laptop - it was very good. While the computer restarts windows laptop crashed and the WINDOWS FAILED to START SCREEN has appeared. I gave it back to my friend who reloaded windows and avast and widely used for a week. When we got it back avast had been removed and there was Windows Defender - didn't light alarm does not. We loaded on Mcafee and had plenty of updates (and hours) then tried windows live messenger telling to SP1 and SP2 are necessary. They were charged after an eternity using automatic updates of windows. After everything has been loaded on a final restart gave place WINDOWS failed to START screen and does not start in any mode. I thought it might be linked to the abduction of an antivirus and the installation of another, so I put in the original Windows restore disc in and formatted the large partition, then reloaded windows and all its drivers then went on updates auto and auto updates for 24 hours until what he said to date. Installed mcafee - no problem, then tried windows live essentials that required sp1 and SP2 - used auto updates to download SP1. When this is completed there were two messages from Mcafee saying restart the pc and the other problem Center and soln windows saying an upate problem was found to go online to find the solution, I checked windows update history and SP1 and all other updates were installed successfully, so I rebooted the laptop - at which point it crashed and WINDOWS has no PU START APPEARED to-it wont start in any mode. Suggestions as to the cause and or how to make the process of restoration in less time - much appreciated. We have a same laptop bought at the same time, running the same original software and Mcafee - never a single problem. Thank you very much

    Usually, this means that Windows could not load the packages of metadata for some devices on your computer. If you do not already have it, you can run chkdsk/r (there is a space between thek and /) to verify the integrity of your hard drive. Follow the steps below:

    1. reboot your computer

    2. immediately press theF8 key until you reach the Advanced Boot Options menu

    3. Select Safe Mode with command prompt.

    4. at the command prompt, typechkdsk/r

  • Resolution of screen of Windows 7 laptop computer rose after updates. Cannot read the menus.

    My laptop has a new installation of Windows 7 SP1 Pro who had before correct screen resolution updates have been installed. Today, I managed to install all updates after fighting with a lot of problems with outdated update Agents. Now, the resolution of the screen has increased so that text and on the desktop, the menus are invisible. Among the updates could be for the video driver. Now, I can't use the settings menu or control panel to change the resolution, because the menus show only as tiny arrows. Even the Start Menu does not appear. The command prompt window is normal text, so I can use it for the closing session and stop.

    Is there a curse from command line to get the desktop settings? I tried the "Windows"I"suggestion for another post, but it does not bring up the settings menu. And "Control +" does nothing on the desktop.

    Thank you.

    MS has probably included a video driver in the list of the optional updates for your system of brand not specified and the model.

    You should look at those carefully and decline/hide video driver updates.

    Generally, it is not wise to accept updates of hardware driver (audio, video, network), available from MS, and many are the woes of people who (and then have your question).

    If you see offered, it is best to diminish and hide so that you do not see them yet.

    Here you can see where certain nVidia and Western Digital updates have been hidden:

    If after completing your 208 updates of the video is messed up again, you should be able to just push this update of the video driver from Device Manager instead of having to run the system restore:

    It might help to check the Device Manager when the system works well to see and note that the graphics card version, this is before making updates so that you know what he looks like when he's not working properly.  Then you will know what is the "right" driver version  After the updates (and before rebooting), you can check the driver again and roll back before restarting.

    If you can get only / still at the command prompt (or the run menu), you can open the device like this Manager:

  • Windows 7 OEM itself activated after update

    My HP laptop was purchased in September 2010 and I did a windows update yesterday and its lost its settings in windows 7.  Wants a code for activation but the sticker dissipated.  If I contact someone with prrof of purchase to find the code?  I have all the packages and original invoices.

    Try to do a restore of the system before you start, facing this problem.

    How do I Do a System restore in Windows 7 or Windows Vista ...

    Option 1:

    If the COA sticker is damaged, you must use the recovery partition to reinstall Windows 7, it will be exempt from the need to use the product key to activate your installation of Windows 7.

    Option 2:

    If your recovery partition is not available or damaged, you must contact the manufacturer of your computer, and request that a defined recovery disk you can use to reinstall Windows 7. They could practice a small shipping and handling. This will exempt the need to also use the product key.

    Option 3:

    If neither options 1 or 2 is possible, then you will need to invest in a new license of full version of detail.

    New computers coming often pre-installed with Windows 7 have what is called a recovery partition. This is used to reinstall an operating system in the case of a system failure. To access it, you need to start when you start your computer by pressing a function key. This can be either F1, F2, F9, F10, F11, F12 key DEL or tab. See the manual that came with your PC for instructions on how to reinstall Windows.

    This is how the recovery partition is accessible to most popular brands...
