Cumulative Update KB4041676 Windows 10 v1703 Build 15063.674

I just turned my puter on about an hour ago and after starting to read this thread, went over and checked for updates. It was sitting there waiting for a restart. Once I pushed restart it was less than 4 minutes before 15063.674 was finished. I did a (Winver) to verify the version and I.E. started up?? I.E. starting up by itself has happened in the past but not to often after I do a Winver. It usually happens only once and does not repeat.

No, some of us will just be upgrading. :)

Wouldn't all the installed updates be toast anyway once the upgrade is done ? You would have a clean install with zero updates at that point. It just seems too near to the big day to be worrying over this, at least for those that intend to either clean install or force the upgrade.

12 minutes from download start to returning to desktop after install, one down two to go.

Sounds like your in similar boat to me. On one machine all ok and installed but our second living room box I came back to an error saying fail to install and try again later. I set it to check for updates again and it found the cu again but stayed on downloading 0% for ages. So I thought a restart would do it some good. But instead of restarting its stuck on ‘getting windows ready’ for about half hour now and going nowhere fast ! Am torn on whether to force shut down the thing by holding down power but I know during something like this that could make things worse!

edit - it’s finally restarted, went straight into windows update where it said ‘we couldn’t install some updates as your machine was off’ so I clicked retry and it’s showing the update again with ‘downloading updates 100%’ but just stuck on that now! I really hope something is going on in the background and it’ll kick into like or start saying preparing to install but doesn’t look promising !

Did it work for you in the end Josey? Mine eventually sprang into life and installed. What a mission though!
