Good evening everyone. I finally got out of a startup boot loop after my latest Windows update. I still see that spinning animation...........

Good Day eh...

... I thought I'd already came by and said hi, but I see now that I forgot part of the equation...

There is likely ( almost certainly actually ) an underlying cause that created the problem you saw. Clear the system temp files ( using Disk Cleanup or similar utilty ), check the drive for errors ( chkdsk /f in a command prompt started as an administrator ) and that will likely clear out the problem and you can re-apply the update.

If the problem repeats... check for possible malware ( I recommend using Malwarebytes ) and there are a few command line utils that can be used to check for system file corruptions ( depends on which Windows version you are running ) that can be run as well. Let me know if you need more details about any of this and I'll PM you more info if it's needed.

Thanks for the offer Rdsok.

I had already thrown the kitchen sink at it a couple of days before and then a notification of a new update came across my desk and as is my nature, I began the install. I thought the install completed but now I think for whatever reason it didn't.

This is my second run in with boot loop with Window 10 after an update. So far it is running fine but if I experience any more problems I will use my arsenal on it. I have about six utilities DVD disks.

With the exception of the malware detection/cleanup... I usually don't need anything more than what comes with Windows 10 to fix 99% of the issues I fix...

Disk Cleanup - comes with Win10 but I may also use CCleaner and/or GlaryUtil's DiskCleanup

All of the following is run in a CMD prompt as administrator

To fix minor logical disk/file corruptions you run
chkdsk /f - answer Y ( yes ) when prompted and then restart the computer.

To fix corrupted/missing Windows system files locally without having an outside internet connection...
sfc.exe /scannow

To fix corrupted/missing Windows system files and restore them to a healthy state... requires an internet connection
dism /online /cleanup-image /restorehealth

While I do have many other tools, I seldom need many other utils for most situations.
