Windows update stuck and never proceed. How to fix this?
I don't know what to do with my laptop I'm assuming it's very unsafe to power off so should I just lose several hours of sleep monitoring?

Generally, it's not recommended to force power off during a Windows update, as this can cause system corruption or even make your system unbootable.
