Windows Update Stuck at 0%/20%/99% — If Windows Update hangs at a percentage for a long time, first reboot and try again, then run the built‑in troubleshooter and clear the SoftwareDistribution cache. Ensure you have at least 20GB free space and pause any third‑party antivirus during the update. These steps usually resolve stuck updates without a full reset.
