[German<\/a>]Microsoft has released cumulative update KB4041676 for Windows 10 Creators Update (Version 1703) on October 10, 2017. Since then there are reports about install issues (install hangs, roll back, inaccessible boot device). Here is an overview. [Addendum:<\/strong> Microsoft has confirmed this issue.]<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

\"\"I've introduced update KB4041676<\/a> for Windows 10 Creators Update (Version 1703) within my blog post Windows 10 Updates (Oktober 10, 2017)<\/a>. The blog post contains details, what has been fixed.<\/p>\n

But some users are facing install issues<\/h2>\n

Hours after releasing update KB4041676 I received a user comment<\/a> within my German blog:<\/p>\n

Update KB4041676 for Windows 10 Version 1703 ended on my HP laptop after restarting with the error message that the update could not be installed. And the system has been rolled back. I had this a few months ago. Let's see if it is sufficient to restart the update after a few days of waiting time.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

I testet the update install on a virtual machine on a 32 bit Windows 10 V1703 without any issue.<\/p>\n

A hit at reddit.com<\/h2>\n

At reddit. com there is this thread<\/a>, but it's not very useful in terms of details. Users are reporting very long download and installations periods, but not detailing the Windows 10 version nor the KB number. That makes the statements rather useless. Some information that is relevant to me: A user complains that the store continues to make a mistake when he wants to install an app.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

However, a special constellation of the user may exist, which does not fix the update. I will keep an eye on that thread..<\/p>\n

Slow download and rollback<\/h2>\n

The English MS answers forum contains the thread My computer keeps restarting because windows update won't install KB4041676<\/a>. A user wrote about install issues with update KB4041676.<\/p>\n

I have windows 10<\/p>\n

My computer keeps restarting because windows update won't install KB4041676<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

But till now, I haven't seen further details to fix this issue. Within this English MS answers forum post<\/a> the update hangs at 23 %:<\/p>\n

I am trying to download the Cumulative Update for Windows 10 Version 1703 for x64-based Systems (KB4041676), its been at 23% all day.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

But the user mentioned Norton, so I suppose his third party antivirus solution block the download\/install.<\/p>\n

Within this short article<\/a> some cases are mentioned, where the update installation has been slow (4 hours), the download freezes and so on. The article mentions also users with install rollback. I found also this forum thread<\/a>, where users reporting slow downloads and hanging downloads (hangs at 0%, stops for long time at 3%, 18%, 25% and 66%).<\/p>\n

In this forum thread<\/a> some users reporting the installation fails and will be rolled back. That has also been the case with a manual download of the package and an attempt to install the package manually from disk.<\/p>\n

What can a user do?<\/h2>\n

If the download seems to hang, please be patient. It may take many hours until the update is downloaded and installed. If a download and install error is reported, try the following steps.<\/p>\n
