Most users are aware that Microsoft has ended support for Windows 7, which means using it will pose security and protection risks. Therefore, upgrading to Windows 10 has become an inevitable option. If you are unsure how to upgrade to Windows 10, we recommend checking out the following article.
Today’s topic is dedicated to individuals who are attempting to upgrade to Windows 10 but face issues with the upgrade process getting stuck at 46%. Some users have reported this issue, and we will try to resolve it in this article.
1. System Requirements
Before anything else, make sure your device can run Windows 10. Although the system requirements are not extensive, it is recommended to check them out on this page, where you will find all the necessary information.
2. Sufficient Disk Space
Ensure that you have enough space on your hard disk. Upgrading the system involves downloading new files, so you will need sufficient space for Windows 10. Simply open File Explorer, go to the hard drive, check the space on the system drive (C), and compare it with the requirements.
3. Internet Connection
Make sure you are connected to the internet, and that the network you are connected to is stable without any internet flow issues. Even if you have downloaded the Windows 10 package on a CD or USB, ensure this step as well.
4. Power Source
You definitely do not want the device to shutdown mid-upgrade, so if you are using a laptop, make sure the battery is fully charged and the device is connected to a power source during installation.
5. Disconnect External Devices
Remove all external devices connected to the computer, including hard drives, flash drives. It is also advisable to remove the external mouse and keyboard, and use only the computer’s own keyboard and mouse.
6. Use Troubleshooter
First, open the Start menu and type Troubleshooting in the search box. Click on the first option that appears in the menu, which will open the built-in Troubleshooter tool with Windows. This tool will help you resolve most system issues.
Afterward, scroll down and click on “Fix problems with Windows Update.” A new window will appear, click Next and follow the on-screen instructions until the update problems are resolved.
7. Reset Windows Update
First, open the Start menu and type cmd, right-click on it and choose Run as administrator. Now, type the following commands one by one and press Enter after each command:
net stop wuauserv
net stop cryptSvc
net stop bits
net stop msiserver
net stop AppIDSvc
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
net start AppIDSvc
After typing all the commands, restart the computer and try upgrading to Windows 10 again.
8. Use System File Checker
Among the common solutions you can turn to when encountering system problems is the SFC SCAN command. It scans the entire protected system files for errors or corruption and automatically replaces damaged files with backup copies.
Once again, go back to the Start menu and type CMD, right-click on it and run it as administrator, and now type sfc /scannow and press Enter. Wait for the process to reach 100%, restart the device, and check the upgrade again.
