Windows Updates has hosed my system... Help!

(1/3) > >>

techidave:
Yesterday my Win 7 Pro desktop was stuck in a "Installing 1 of 14 updates" for hours... like 8 hours.  I (grudgingly) powered it down thinking it was stuck.  And now when powering up it is stuck at "loading desktop".

Is there a fix without reloading windows?

mouser:
i don't know the solution, but most likely yes, so don't panic.  im sure you're not the only person to suffer this.

TaoPhoenix:
Can you get into Safe Mode and maybe try something like System Restore?

techidave:
system restore is turned off.  I have not tried safe mode yet.  I just wondered what my options were.

Josh:
Boot into safe mode with command prompt and run sfc /scannow
