Update stuck Undoing on my computer

Whenever I try to update my operating system, the progress bar gets stuck on "Undoing changes made to your computer" and doesn't move forward. I've tried waiting for a while, but the update just stays stuck at this point and doesn't continue. This has happened multiple times, and I've tried restarting my computer, checking for any pending updates, and running the Windows Update troubleshooter, but nothing seems to work. How to resolve this problem?

  • I recommend to repair Windows Update database, see if it helps.

    Open administrative Command Prompt and type following commands one-by-one followed by Enter key.

    net stop wuauserv
    net stop cryptSvc
    net stop bits
    net stop msiserver
    Ren C:\Windows\SoftwareDistribution SoftwareDistribution.old
    Ren C:\Windows\System32\catroot2 Catroot2.old
    net start wuauserv
    net start cryptSvc
    net start bits
    net start msiserver

    Close Command Prompt and see if Windows Updates works then.

    Let us know if this helps!
