1. Check for updates to your BIOS or UEFI.
2. If you’re using an SSD, try disabling fast startup in Windows.
3. Try unplugging any external devices before you start the update process.
4. If all else fails, try reinstalling your operating system.
Fix Boot Failure in Safe Mode
If you are having issues updating your Microsoft Windows software and it is preventing your computer from booting, you can try to fix the issue in Safe Mode. To do this, restart your computer and press F8 while it is booting up. This will bring up the Advanced Boot Options menu. From here, select Safe Mode and hit Enter. Once your computer has booted into Safe Mode, try to run the updates again.

Fix Boot Failure due to Corrupt System Files
