Hi everyone, I accidentally enrolled my PC into the Windows Insider Preview Program and since then I am stuck in a continuous update loop. A new Insider update appears in Windows Update, it downloads to 100 percent successfully, installs successfully, then Windows asks me to restart to complete the update. After restarting Windows shows Updating for around 30 minutes but it never completes, then the system boots normally and when I check Windows Update again the same update starts downloading again from the beginning. This cycle repeats every time so the update never finishes, I cannot properly leave the Windows Insider Preview Program and Windows Update is effectively stuck. I would like to stop this update loop, safely unenroll from the Windows Insider Preview Program and return to the stable public release of Windows without losing any data. Has anyone experienced this before or knows how to fix it. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks, Muhammad Hasnain

Hello everyone, I am experiencing an issue while trying to install a Windows 11 Insider Preview update on my device. The Windows 11 Insider Preview Feature Update version 26220.7523 gets stuck during download and the Update Stack Package version 922.415.111.0 fails to install. The error message shown says: We couldn't install updates because there's a problem with the date and time information on your device. Make sure your date, time, and time zone settings are correct and we'll try again later. I have already verified that the date and time are correct, the correct time zone is selected, and automatic date and time synchronization is enabled. Despite this, the update continues to fail with the same error. This update is important for system stability and Insider testing, so I kindly request a Microsoft moderator or an experienced community member to review this issue and provide guidance as soon as possible. Thank you for your time and support. I deeply request to contact as soon as you see my post
Windows 11 not updating to Windows 11 Insider Preview Feature Update (26220.7051)
Respected Madams/Sirs, I am facing a very unexpected problem while updating to Windows 11 Insider Preview Feature Update (26220.7051), which encounters an error and says, "couldn't extend system reserved partition". My disk has a lot of free space available, but the EFI, of course, was full with 6mb left, so I had to extend its capacity. To fix this, I tried numerous methods, but they eventually proved fruitless. Tried extending the EFI size (currently 100 MB) using GParted, but couldn't, so created a new EFI with a 500 MB size. Executed the necessary steps and commands to make sure the computer used the new EFI as its primary EFI. The computer boots using the new EFI, but the update error hasn't gone. Tried clearing unnecessary files from the original EFI. Nothing worked. Tried cleaning my hard disk, which of course might not be the key for this since the error is related to EFI, not the hard disk itself. Still, nothing worked. To put it short, I may have tried every method possible, but nothing has worked. I urgently require assistance. My current Windows version is Windows 11 Home, version 24H2, OS build is 26120.6982, on a Dell Inspiron Laptop Please help. Thanks!
Windows 11 25H2 – Update KB506881 causes unexpected reboots (no BSOD, silent restart)
Hey everyone, just wanted to report a serious issue I encountered with Windows 11 25H2 related to the update KB506881. After installing KB506881 my PC randomly rebooted without warning — no BSOD, no crash report, no error on screen. Only the event log showed “unexpected shutdown / Kernel-Power (Event ID 41)”. Removing the update completely solved the issue. Since uninstalling it, my system has been 100% stable with zero unexpected restarts. Reproducibility: Install KB506881 → system performs unexpected shutdowns / reboots Uninstall KB506881 → issue disappears immediately System details: Windows 11 25H2 (Build: 26200) AMD Ryzen 7800X3D (but issue seems unrelated to hardware) No BSOD / no memory dump / no bugcheck created Reliability Monitor only shows “Unexpected Shutdown” What I already did: Removed KB506881 manually → issue gone Blocked the update using PowerShell + scheduled task (hourly) to prevent Windows from reinstalling it Logs: Event Viewer → Windows Logs → System Shows: Kernel-Power 41 (unexpected shutdown) immediately after KB506881 installation. Has anyone else experienced unexpected reboots after KB506881? If yes, please comment so Microsoft can see how widespread this is. I also reported it via Microsoft Feedback Hub. Thanks!
