Windows Restore stuck

It is a Windows 7 Pro computer that works very poorly as of late. Usually after a few minutes of running programs that they just lock up. So I tried a system restore. That did not work from a normal startup. Now I tried a safe start-up and it was 6 hours and the monitor just says: "Please wait while your Windows files and settings are being restored.

System Restore deletes temporary files... "

Hello

To resolve this problem, please follow the steps below:

  1. If the system restore does not work, restart your computer and press F8 during restart.
  2. Select repair your computer from the menu.
  3. Follow the prompts and select System Restore.

If the problem persists, this could be a hardware failure as possible and you will need to start your computer via Windows DVD or USB.

Let us know if you need assistance.

    Option 2 - use the Roll-Up of the Windows Update

    Recently, Microsoft has packed all the updates of Windows 7 over the past five years in a single, easy-to-install package. Instead of spending hours trying to install updates 200 +, just install the roll-up and make. Personally, I would say this to option 1. I wrote an article of wiki for more details. Here is the link:

  • Update of Windows 8 stuck at 12%

    Update Windows 8 stuck at 12%. Frustrating because I had to deal with the error 13% already. Any ideas? Thank you!

    Hi all

    Update for Windows 8 (KB2771431) was released in December 2012, which the fixed an issue that was causing this update stops responding at 12% and caused also updated KB2756872 to stop responding to 13% of configuration updates.

    If you hide one of these up-to-date or disabled the automatic updates to avoid this problem, you can now activate or restore your updates and search for new updates.  Details on how to restore updates can be found here.

    To search for new updates:

    1. Type Windows Update in the start screen, press or click settings, and then tap or click install optional updates.
    2. Press or click the link in the upper left corner that says check the updates.

  • Windows Update stuck at 'Check updates'

    Original title: Windows Update stuck

    I had to recover my laptop windows 7 back to out-of-box state system. Once presented to my office, I immediately went to Windows Update to install all of the updates that I needed. After installing SP1, and restart the computer, windows update to update the update agent, so he could get some more updates. He said he would close and re - open Windows Update, which she did, but now it is stuck on "check updates".

    The update that broke the update of Windows was "Windows Update Agent 7.6.7600.320"

    I have since made a recovery of the system to the State out-of-box three times and each time "Windows Update Agent 7.6.7600.320" installs Windows Update is stuck saying "check updates".

    I did tons of attempts to solve this problem, but it won't find more updates and I can't install more updates.

    I have also experienced problems with Windows Update still looking for updates when Windows Update 7.6.7600.320 has been installed automatically after the system update to SP1 (it was after doing a clean install of Windows 7).

    The following worked for me:

    1. manually installing KB3083710

    2. manually installing KB3102810

    3. restart the computer

    4. run the Windows Update Diagnostic tool to reset Windows Update (support.microsoft.com/en-us/kb/971058)

    Hello

    Thanks for posting your query to the Microsoft forum. I will definitely help you with this.

    This could happen because of some third-party software conflicts.

    Step 1: Unplug all your removable media

    Please unplug all your removable media from the computer except the keyboard and mouse, such as removable disks, USB flash drives and memory cards.

    Step 2: Hard to start the computer from the power button.

    If you can restart your computer successfully and that the computer is always 10 Windows. Follow step 3.

  • Computer laptop Pavilion G6 with 8.1 window is stuck on the installation of updates

    Hi my old laptop Pavillion G6 of 12 months (which was the worst computer I've ever owned!) is stuck on an update. The screen shows the message "Keep your PC up to... this installation to update 1 of 2" for 12 hours (overnight).

    A little over 2 weeks ago he had a problem with the WiFi connection - which also seems to be associated with the Windows updates - I got this one and it has been fine since then. Started an automatic update last night and now he's stuck. Any ideas?

    Hi Jamame,

    Thanks for your post, I will do my best to help you!

    I see that your computer did an update for more than 12 hours and has not completed or seems to have improved.

    First of all you could cancel the update, restart the computer.  Then you would go The HP Support Assistant to search for updates or problems. Here is a document to help performance. Improve the performance of the system without adding memory (Windows 7). I would also like to launch the File Checker.  Using the File Checker system to restore the system files. Now repeat your update with her power.

    If you want more help, please can you give us the exact model of the G6 you and the operating system you are using. How can I find my model number or product number?

    Hi royfos,

    Do you have a code error message when you try to run the system restore?

    Check if you can get into safe mode. If you manage to get into safe mode, then you can run the restore of the system from there. Otherwise, another option is to perform the Startup Repair.

    Method 1: Troubleshooting Safe Mode

    Step 1: Start the computer in safe mode

    Safe mode is an option of troubleshooting for Windows that starts your computer with only basic services and features.

    To get into safe mode, check out this help article: , start your computer in safe mode

     

    Step 2: Run system restore

     

    For complete help, see this article:System Restore: frequently asked questions

    Note: If you use system restore when the computer is in safe mode, you can not undo the restore operation. However, you can run System Restore again and choose a different restore point if any.

    Method 2: Startup Repair

     

    Startup Repair is a Windows Vista recovery tool analysis of missing or damaged system files that may prevent Windows from starting correctly. Run it and see if that fixes the boot problem.
