I started my laptop today and now it's been running for three hours and the top circle is spinning from the 36% it does not come off or on so it can start. "Windows is being prepared 36% complete, please do not turn off the computer"
Is he over?
What can I do?
Check if the internet connection is up.
Ssd or hdd?
as long as it does not fail, that can take up to 5 hours.
That is there
SSD & Uiuiui
Ssd should take no more than 45 minutes. Or billidmodell? Then also 90 minutes
3 hours is unusual.
I hope you created backups from the system partition.
Ansonten: Switch off, restart.
If that does not help, play back the system partition backup.
Is not a cheap model can also be due to my bad Internet connection & he is already 3 years old
Mine is 13 years old. And faster than Schmidt's cat!
Now he whines around he can't load a bug but uninstall is not because of an error & backup does not work because it just does not recognize my external hard drive & it says the only way would be to reset it but I can't make it hang all of my stuff on it photos, music, working documents…
I'll go straight through
Today I played the beta of Anno 1800 at high liquid with the 13-year-old system.
