That happened to me as well when I checked for updates and got the whole shabang (.NET, Flash, MSRT, CU, etc). Everything installed, rebooted. Got back to desktop and was still on .86. Weird. I just ran WU again and let it install and all was good. Just a reminder, make sure you don't have any usb hdd's, flash drives, sd cards or any other non fixed disks attached to your system when you update. I had my external hdd plugged in and I noticed the update process was stuck on pending install for some time until I unplugged it.
Many users cant update because a "This pc cant be upgraded to windows 10" message appears on installer and there is no way to continue. It´s not all about usb drives. Guess internal disk can cause this too. They said they will release a fix soon.
I rechecked WU, and windows update started to download same update again, installed, but i got stuck on boot loop (black screen with dots spinning in circle), so i uninstalled this update, and i got back to .53 build. I think something is wrong with my Windows 1903 build. Everytime when trying to install CU for this build, i got boot loop.
I haven't checked yet with recent win10 biulds but, are you yet able to download and apply feature upgrades if booting for example from a 'win10_1903.vhd' via bcd vhd boot? With previous win10 builds VHD Win10 Upgrades where not supported which kinda sucked. From my reads a few years ago it didnt seam like it was gonna change any time soon. ~MC
happened with me for the first time, even after downloading & installing followed by a reboot, build still shows as .86 Run WU once again & that makes the fix for me.
I did it, run WU once again, u got updated, but got stuck on boot loop. Everytime i try to install latest CU, i got boot loop (black screen with dots spinning in circle)
okay, then that'd be something else, becuase, apart from me, user @bfoos also experienced & said the same How did you installed v19H1? Clean or in-place upgrade? Modded or vanilla ISO? Also, any external storage devices attached in your system i.e. Memory card reader, Memory card, thumb driver or external HDD?
I'm thinking of this problem might be drivers issue... cos i didn't have any problems with 1809 build. I'm going back to 1809 build, and will wait for GA of 1903 build.
