Windows Insider update problems
- Nov 26, 2017
I somehow managed to solve my problem , In 17025 version updates will not work until you leave your PC idle , Don't just bother if it is paused at 100% or any other figure , just leave PC aside and do your other work and let PC to do it's work , then suddenly you will get restart popup , tadaaaaa !!
I have had a problem with an Insider install. The computer I am using for the Insider Builds is in a perpetual loop that begins with the onscreen message "Diagnosing your PC" and proceeds almost immediately to a "system exception thread not handled" error. Then a few seconds later, it repeats the same message and continues in a loop with no escape.

- Alison Ogier-PriceMar 19, 2018Copper ContributorSame problem - continual loop - alternates between blue screen message System_Service_Exception and Systems-Thread_Exception_Not-Handled and restarts. Any luck getting out of that?

Created a windows install iso booted into the either cd/dvd or usb drive and installed windows over top itself resolved this issue I had this one back in the days of windows XP.
I have had many issues with windows back in the old file format and resolved them fast with little issues. when I did however load windows over itself found it best to do fresh install resolving many other issues not factored in when trying to resolve driver issues.

Same problem -- brand new one!! :( I tried to boot from a =repair= CD produced on another machine that should have the same build (17120), but it wouldn't boot. I =could= boot from a =recovery= USB thumb drive, so I'm working through CHKDSK, etc. But if someone comes up with an efficient way to address this issue, I'd sure like to see it!!! (PS: I don't know if the earlier responses in this thread that referred to a commercial driver updating program are just spam or real experience, but I certainly couldn't run such a tool while in a reboot loop!!!)

not spam on my part I used driver max to assist in resolution of this issue. I did however purchase it and it showed many driver updates I did a pick a choose of the drivers needed and found it to be system drivers for the mother board that had to be updated to allow my system to update with no issue.
