  1. Dear Chuck, Thanks for your continued suppor. Ultimately I did the following as a last resort: -Installed my pre-windows 10 configuration ( Win 8.1) image "thanks god I had it" -Downloaded the whole ISO file for Win 10 from Microsoft -Proceeded to an upgrade install keeping all my files and apps All I can say at this point is that everything is working OK now and I already made an image of the base Win 10 installation. My advice for other readers, keep your system in a separate physical disc or at lease on another partition and make frequent images (Macrium Reflect). This setup is screw u
  2. Thanks for your reply. I really don't consider it excessive to try all venues, specially if nobody has established a reasonable solution. I started with the Microsoft forum with dismal results. If my actions have offended anyone, I'm sorry. I still need help!
  3. Thanks for your help. I did find KB3081436 installed and as far as I recall this was installed automatically. Don't give up and let me know if you find something. Microsoft forums are dead and I've had only one reply which did not help.
  4. Thanks for the reply. I already did what you suggested and I only got into more trouble and I couldn't boot. Luckily, I had an image backup which saved the day.
  5. Probably, i'm sure it's running in the background with the dots from one side to another. I had not checked updates until yesterday as I assumed Win10 handled them automatically. I updated manually the latest August cummulative succesfully, but the auto update is screwed. Any ideas?
  6. Windows 10 cannot update I wanted to check on the status of my Win 10 updates so I looked in "settings" "update and security" and clicked on update. Nothing happened, all I get is the endless progression of dots which goes on forever. Stopping and restarting the Windows update services has no effect on this situation. Looks like this situation has been going on months now. Looks like it's stuck. Please advise.
  7. Dear users: I downloaded a STANDALONE INSTALLER of WINXP SP3 whic apparantly runs fine, but when installing files at about aproximately 60% it stops and I get the message: "ACCESS DENIED" the Service pack 3 installation is not complete. Select OK to undo the changes that have been made. I''m logged in as an administrator. I have seen this issue discussed elsewhere but the solution is very technical. I'd appreciate some help. Arturo
