I have a laptop running Windows 10. I updated Windows 10 last night. I start up my laptop today and it’s stuck on this loop where it’s on this screen that says “Restoring your previous version of Windows” I have no idea how to fix this. Please help.

    Hi Paulis,

    Could you verify if you already tried following the troubleshooting steps on this article that I've provided above? That would help you resolving the Windows Update issues.

    The first recommendation after asking what version you use tells us to download something. People have stated multiple times that we can't even get to the desktop. Posting the same link after people say they can't even try the solution isn't helping. We need an actual solution to our computers being stuck in "Restoring previous versiom of Windows" and the startup boot.

    Anyone already solve this problem? I really apreciate if someone could tell me how to break the loop or cancel the procress. I did agree installing Fall creator update but my laptop keep getting BSOD and wifi connectivity issue. So I decide to get back to creator update version 1703 but it keep on the loop now. i can’t work like this.
