Windows 10 Stuck on “Restoring your previous version of Windows” loop

This is now beyond a joke.  My Toshiba laptop has been stuck in restoring to previous version for 2 months now.  I have tried ALL the suggestions on this thread and none of them work.  The only thing I have been able to do is press F2 and get to Utility screen.  Pressing F8 doesn't work.  I have gone out and bought a 16GB USB stick (so I have enough memory) and have downloaded the creation tool but cannot do anything with it as my Toshiba is consisently stuck in RETORING TO PREVIOUS VERSION LOOP.

I cannot believe that Microsoft STILL have no better solutions other than continually repeating the same processes which they have been told repeatedly on here that THEY DO NOT WORK IF WE CANNOT GET PAST THE RESTORING LOOP SCREEN! 

Come on Microsoft, get your head out of your ass and FIX this problem as YOU created it!

Mine was having the same issue. I had to power the laptop off, wait 30 seconds, then power it on 3 times. On the 3rd try, it booted into the login screen. The first 2 times it did the "restoring previous version loop"... one thing I did do on the 3rd try (from complete shutdown), was pressed F8 like a mad man, but it actually shot it right to the login screen...

It worked with my Acer laptop too - shutting down by pressing the power button for several seconds, wait 2-3 minutes, then turning on and pressing F8 till it shows the login screen. You log in, all data is there (Google Chrome restored also all open tabs before accepting the update) and it's shown a message that the update failed to install, but everything else is OK and the PC works as usual. 

Thanks for sharing the first WORKING troubleshooting for this issue. <3 

Microsoft, you should check this solution too and if you can not fix the update issue, please advice the customers to try it in order not to loose any personal unsaved data and not to have to reinstall Windows.

Can confirm, shutting down and turning it on and pressing F8 like a mad man worked the first time for me for some reason. Windows 10 makes no sense.

So I have to remove and reinstall all of my apps? that is ridiculous, is there another fix for this? my computer constantly is trying to update windows 10 and then fails and then restores the previous version ... it's a constant loop.

Hi,

If the laptop is still stuck in restarting loop, we have to attempt to access Windows Recovery Environment (WinRe) and check if the laptop can boot to Safe Mode. If the laptop can access WinRe and still unable to boot in Safe Mode, attempt to access WinReagain and run System Restore. Please click this link on how to access Windows Recovery Environment.

Keep us posted.
