Default Install stalls at 99%

I started to install Win 10 at 1730 yesterday. It's now 1330 and the
upgrade assistant shows 99%.

Should I kill Windows10UpgraderApp.exe and try to start over?

Yes and get some geek-squad members to come and fix it for you.

It is not unheard of for the upgrade or install to look like it's doing
nothing for hours. I don't consider it stalled until it pauses for 4 to
6 hours. Even then I have seen some older PC's take longer while most
finish in a couple of hours or less.

Get the Media Creation Tool, download for a dvd OR flash stick or both
and install that way.

To others:
I just did my wifes PC from the get windows 10 site where you download
the Media Creation Tool, but I thought...hell...I'll just click 'upgrade
now'. Boy was that a mistake. Hours just like the OP...and at 99% I
did a power fail.

Went back and got the media creation tool and made the win10 dvd and put
it in the drive and it started the install and it ran in a few hours
total. I've got it fully cleaned up and tweaked after about 5 hours
(elapse time not labor).

PS I booted the DVD and it said that you can only clean load from the
booted DVD, and I had to put the dvd in the drive on a running system so
it would autorun and load. That way I was able to keep all my
software. I only had to do this since I had an OEM system and I had no
key to put into a clean load. Just FYI.

I used the media creation tool to burn a dvd as well and successfully
upgraded four computers with it. IMO it's definitely the best way to
upgrade/fresh install win10 on any pc.

Can I use a media creation tool DVD that I made on one computer on a
second computer?
