Creators Update hung when checking for updates during install...
After an age and multiple reboots, things were going well with the Creators Update on my home PC. Just turn off all those privacy sliders (there's even more to turn off after the update finishes) and, what's this, it's "Checking for updates..." (which really should be left to the user to do after the first login surely?) and, er, not doing anything for 2 hours!
A power cycle and the same thing happens on the next boot - privacy sliders re-appear (yep, had to turn them off again) and "Checking for updates..." hung again. The solution? I disconnected my PC from the internet and it then booted fine and gave my first Creators Update login prompt. Well done MS for screwing up the install!
Biting the hand that feeds IT
