UPDATE: If you’re stuck in endless reboot after you have successfully logged on to Safe Mode you should enter the Safe Mode again and delete the contents of C:\Windows\SoftwareDistribution\Download folder and then reboot again. **Note: you might need to run the Safe Mode twice because sometimes it won’t work at the first try.

After the next reboot, you should be able to get into Windows normally.

After you have successfully logged on to Windows, reboot. Once you get to the login screen, log-in with your local account. You should get to the login screen and you will probably see this message: Now reboot the system into the Safe Mode**. In the command prompt screen type the following: del C:\Windows\WinSxS\pending.xmlĭel C:\Windows\WinSxS\cleanup.xml (this file might not exist in the system)ĭel C:\Windows\SoftwareDistribution\Download\ *.* Hold the power button until the system shuts downįrom the recovery menu select Troubleshoot | Advanced Options and then Command Prompt. – Safe Mode – didn’t work (at least at this point)įinally, I have managed to run a command prompt from the recovery screen. Uninstall latest quality update – You have pending update actions and we won’t be able to uninstall the latest quality update of Windows. I have also received the following message: I’m guessing that these updates couldn’t be properly uninstalled by the setup.

– Uninstall Updates – I have tried to uninstall cumulative and quality packs and both of these actions didn’t help. – System Restore – even though I had 2 restore points before problematic updates were installed, selecting each of those resulted in an error. – System Image Recovery – didn’t have any images – Last known good configuration – didn’t work (strangely) I have tried to recover the system in many ways but none of those were successful. The problem appeared after unsuccessful windows update installation. Windows 10 starts loading but it never gets to the login screen.

Lately, we have received several reports where some laptops got stuck in a Windows 10 endless boot screen.
