When I wake my PC from standby it just hangs on a nice picture and never seems to get to the enter password.
Not sure if its quite the same issue you have but I sometimes need to unplug and plug back in my keyboard/mouse to be able to get past that screen. It's not new to the anniversary update though. Only abnormality I can think is that I am running them off the USB hub in my monitor due to lack of ports.
Just managed to get back online after a day of trying everything I thought of .
I couldn't access the internet even though Windows 10 Anniversary update couldn't find any problems.
Used my Windows lumia phone eventually to find the advice to turn off VPN and that worked for me.

I didn't know what VPN was but it means Virtual Private Network and apparently it was turned on on my machine. Killed my connection but I have no idea how it works and just took the advice to see if turning it off worked and it did. I'm not doing anything further, too traumatised. It's all too technical for me.
Just check Google because there seem to be a ton of problems with it and the Anniversary edition.

Sorry, but Windows can't setup a VPN by itself. It may have been something you were tinkering with before.
Millions of people will be receiving the Anniversary update. Google will give results for the relatively few that went wrong. I'm sorry it happened to you.

It did happen to me after stupidly joining the Developers to get the upgrade early as the first one was working perfectly. It did work at first but then crawled going online and I mean c r a w l e d then blocked when still being told that there was no problem with the internet connection.
I rolled back but still had the problem and wanted to change from being on the "Public" network it had listed me as being on to the "Private" home internet as formerly and that might be the problem. Only one computer going online anyway and never travelling with it. Virginmedia said no problem with connection (100 MG) I even thought someone in my block of flats had hijacked it.
uninstalled AVG - worked then crawled again. Unticked VPN = worked
Installed AVG again = worked.
You sort it out I don't know. PS: This crawling was in the papers as a problem when Windows 10 first came out. Even the Daily Express (uk) had an article about it.
What are you saying, that it's not true that 'relatively few' updates are going wrong? That would imply that the majority are going wrong. That doesn't seem to be the consensus here.

Agreed - looking on other forums, I saw a much greater rate of issues being seen when 10240 and 10586 came out.
The most common theme is (as regulars know), most issues stem from the auto upgrade process not being as reliable as it should. Upgrading via the media creation tool is generally more reliable.
One thing a lot of people are unaware of it the very useful repair upgrade ability in Windows 10.
You can basically run setup.exe from a mounted iso and it repairs the OS keeping all files and programs. It basically works like any media creation tool upgrade except it upgrades itself to the SAME version.
I always try this before resorting to a clean install, and it sorts most issues.
The other common stuff, chkdsk, sfc /scannow, memory check, virtual memory etc did not work for me.
Hi I having this issue on new asus laptop only bought other week came with Windows 10 says restart several times it don't gets to 29% working on updates then goes to asus logo stays on it i have to switch off then it does restore previous Windows any other ideas
Haven't tried with wifi off I did the Iso file but it comes up upgrading Windows on laptop that didn't have disc with it when I bought it so scrapped that idea any other suggestions
Dell laptop went fine. Not installing on my Lenovo one though. Nearly completes the process but then rolls back with error code 0x80240017. Done a lot of a googling and tons of different ideas but no definitive answer. Tried several things to no avail so far.

Any ideas anyone?
Clean install (keep nothing) or upgrade (keep apps and settings)?
Yep, will probably have to. A couple of other things I will try first. The error code itself is a common one and doesn't give me much chance of identifying the specific cause.
Oh how I wish we could turn off these updates. I use my laptops solely for the Internet and don't want them fouled up with updates that might do just that. On Wins XP and Win 7 I always had updates turned off and then was able to scan for them and see whether I wished to download them or not.

I also updated my Nvidia drivers yesterday so wondering if its that?
Looks like I will have to rollback to the old versions.>:(

If you can work out and publish how you managed that, many people will be for ever grateful!

Who's publishing those stats?

Thanks for that, could not fine an exact solution so went back to the old version of 10 and that seems to have cured it.
In case it's a driver, and now you are back to a working set, consider backing them all up (MS and non-MS)

Did you try with WiFi andEthernet definitely OFF (Disabled in Device Manager is a sure way. Can be re-enabled later). Also switch anti virus off.
See if WhoCrashed gives any clues

Do you mean you are running Setup.exe (from the Mounted ISO) on a machine that you don't want upgraded?
Any ideas anyone?
