Установка windows зависла на getting ready

Любые зависания компьютера в части работы его операционной системы, вне зависимости от их продолжительности, всегда вызывают обоснованную негативную реакцию пользователей и множество вопросов, касающихся вариантов устранения данной проблемы. В настоящей статье речь пойдёт о довольно проблематичной ситуации, в которой пользователь при установке/обновлении операционной системы «Windows» сталкивается с зависанием работы ОС на шаге с надписью «Getting Windows ready».

Причины и решения

Итак, как многим наверняка известно, надпись «Getting Windows ready» говорит о завершающей стадии подготовки функционирования установленной/обновлённой операционной системе. Соответственно, следует понимать, что процесс этот может действительно отнять много времени, в особенности если сама установка заняла не один десяток минут. «Getting Windows ready» при активном индикаторе рабочего процесса может занять и час, и два, и три, поэтому первый вариант – это банально подождать.

Аппаратно или программно

Статистика поисковых запросов наглядно демонстрирует, что в подавляющем большинстве случаев с рассматриваемой проблемой сталкиваются пользователи из других стран, а с чем это может быть связано, так до сих пор конкретно и неизвестно. Основными причинами зависания работы подготовительного процесса могут быть следующие моменты:

• неисправность загрузчика;
• неисправность используемого образа операционной системы;
• проблемы в кабельном соединении, в том числе и нестабильное электропитание;
• активные сетевые процессы;
• неисправность компонентов компьютера.

Исходя из приведённых причин, можно выделить следующий алгоритм действий, который при определённых обстоятельствах позволит решить проблему с зависанием.

Вариант 1

• завершите работу компьютера, но учитывайте, что аварийное выключение может привести к дополнительным ошибкам в работе операционной системе;
• отключите все внешние устройства ввода/выводы информации, сторонние накопители, колонки/наушники и т. д.;
• отключите кабель питания системного блока или извлеките аккумуляторную батарею ноутбука;
• оставьте обесточенный компьютер на некоторое время, буквально 1-2 минуты;
• снова подключите кабель питания/вставьте аккумуляторную батарею и верните при необходимости внешнюю периферию, кроме кабеля интернет-соединения.

Многим известен данный метод обесточивания в решении схожих проблем, что и в рассматриваемой теме.

Вариант 2

При возникновении зависаний на надписи «Getting Windows ready» в процессе установки операционной системы следует принимать во внимание и возможные ошибки в используемом образе ОС, а также в самом физическом носителе. Следовательно, в качестве второго варианта решения проблемы необходимо проверить качество программного обеспечения. Это можно сделать при попытке установить операционную систему на другое устройство, а также сменить загрузочный образ ОС со «сборочного материла» на чистый образ или наоборот. По сути, основываясь на том, что рассматриваемая проблема не имеет какой-либо конкретной причины и может в принципе отсутствовать или решиться сама собой, не существует стопроцентно рабочего алгоритма действий, который бы привёл к моментальному завершению установки/обновлению операционной системы.

Заключение

Последнее, что стоит отметить, — это наличие нескольких советов от пользователей на англоязычных тематических форумах, которые заключались в предложении отключить внешние USB-устройства, в частности мышь, и запустить установку/обновление ОС.

• Способ 3: Перезапись флешки
• Дополнительные действия
• Вопросы и ответы

Способ 1: Ожидание

В зависимости от используемой сборки, процесс подготовки Windows при установке занимает от 20 минут до часа, но в некоторых случаях он может затянуться. Иногда кажется, что экран с сообщением «Getting ready» или «Подготовка к настройке Windows» завис, в то время как система продолжает выполнять действия по настройке. О проблемах с установкой можно будет говорить, если ничего не изменится через два часа или более. Поэтому наберитесь терпения и просто немного подождите.

Способ 2: Отключение устройств

Теоретически проблемы с завершением установки могут быть вызваны ошибками идентификации подключенных к компьютеру устройств. Если сообщение «Getting ready» не исчезнет через продолжительное время (более часа), выключите компьютер кнопкой питания, отключите все второстепенные устройства и включите компьютер. Процедура настройки продолжится и, возможно, завершится успешно.

Способ 3: Перезапись флешки

Нельзя исключать, что причиной неполадки являются ошибки записи установочного образа Windows 10 на флешку. Также ошибки может содержать сам дистрибутив. Пересоздайте установочную флешку, также рекомендуется сравнить контрольные суммы ISO-образа с указанными хешами на сайте (если таковые имеются), с которого был скачан установочный образ. Избегайте по возможности использования пользовательских кастомизированных сборок Windows, так как они могут содержать ошибки.

Дополнительные действия

В случае зависания на экране «Подготовка к настройке Windows» («Getting ready») не будет лишним проверить работу сети и диска. Во-первых, убедитесь в исправности и стабильности интернет-соединения. Возможно, компьютер отключился от сети и не может скачать нужное обновление. Если ПК подключен к роутеру по беспроводной сети, попробуйте подключиться с помощью кабеля Ethernet. Во-вторых, проверьте жесткий диск на предмет ошибок файловой системы и поврежденных секторов.

1. Загрузите компьютер в среду восстановление любым подходящим способом, лучше всего с помощью установочного образа.
   Подробнее: Как попасть в среду восстановления в Windows 10
2. На экране выбора действия выберите «Поиск и исправление неисправностей» → «Дополнительные параметры» → «Командная строка».



3. В открывшейся консоли последовательно выполните команды diskpart и list volume, чтобы определить буквы разделов в загрузочной среде. Ориентируйтесь на строку «Размер», чтобы найти там системный диск.
4. Завершите работу «Diskpart» командой exit.



5. Проверьте системный раздел, выполнив команду chkdsk D: /f /r, где D – буква раздела с операционной системой.

Если ошибки будут найдены, утилита их исправит. После этого можно пробовать загружаться в обычном режиме. Для проверки диска на наличие поврежденных секторов лучше использовать специальное программное обеспечение, например программу Victoria. Так как компьютер не загружается, жесткий диск с него придется снять и проводить проверку уже с другого рабочего компьютера. Если такая возможность отсутствует, можно будет воспользоваться одним из спасательных LiveCD, на борту которого имеется программа Victoria.

Sometimes, you may get stuck on the “getting Windows ready don’t turn off your computer” screen for a long time. This post from MiniTool Partition Wizard tells you why the getting Windows ready stuck issue occurs and offers 6 solutions.

Computer Stuck on Getting Windows Ready

I decided to reset my PC but I canceled the reset while it was at 87% complete. I then tried to reset it again but it kept staying at 1% complete. Then, I restarted my PC. After that, it was stuck on «Getting Windows ready Don’t turn off your computer». Is there something wrong with my PC and if there is, how do I fix it?https://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/forum/all/my-screen-is-stuck-on-getting-windows-ready-dont/49f3254c-64b5-4aff-8c59-24888cd1c974

Many people report that they have gotten stuck on getting Windows ready for a long time (usually for hours). This issue usually occurs when they restart their PCs to update Windows, or try to boot into Windows after they cancel the factory reset.

Why is your computer stuck on getting Windows ready? The possible reasons are as follows:

• A slow Internet speed or an interruption in your network.
• A slow PC that can’t quickly boot up.
• An operating system that hasn’t been updated in a long time and needs to download and install a lot of data.
• Corrupt Windows system files.
• The failing system hard drive.

To fix the “Windows stuck on getting ready” issue, you can try the following ways.

Way 1. Just Wait

When you are prompted with the message “Getting Windows ready don’t turn off your computer”, your system may be processing some tasks in the background, such as downloading and installing files, starting a Windows 10 update process, modifying settings of the applications and modules, etc.

The system may take some time to complete these tasks depending on the number of programs installed on your PC. In addition, if you haven’t updated your PC for a long time, many update files are needed to be downloaded and installed. If the PC is very old, the update installing process will be very slow.

Therefore, it is recommended to wait patiently for about 2 – 3 hours. After the period of time, if getting Windows ready is still stuck there, stop waiting and move on to other troubleshooting ways.

Way 2. Check the Internet Connection

A good network is needed to download Windows update files. If your Internet connection is unstable, the download process will be slow and then the getting Windows ready stuck issue will occur.

Hence, you need to check your Internet connection. You can restart the router or connect the computer directly to the router with an Ethernet cable. Then, check if the issue is solved. To know more ways to troubleshoot the network, you can read this post: 11 Tips to Troubleshoot Internet Connection Problems Win 10.

Way 3. Shut Down Your Computer and Power Reset It

If the above methods fail, I recommend you try this way. But note that when your Windows is getting updated, an abrupt shutdown might lead to the corruption of critical system files. If you are aware of that and still want to have a try, you can follow the guide below:

1. Turn off your computer.
2. Disconnect all peripheral devices like USB flash drives, external hard drives, headphones, mice, keyboards, printers, webcams, SD cards, etc.
3. Remove the power cable. Some laptops have a removable battery, so you have to remove the battery.
4. Press and hold the Power button for 15 to 20 seconds to drain residual power.
5. Insert the battery and plug in the power cable.
6. Power on your computer again to see if the issue is solved.

Way 4. Repair Windows in WinRE

Sometimes, the cause of the “Windows stuck on getting ready” issue is the corrupt system files, especially if you have done some improper operations. For example, you canceled the factory reset when the process completed over 50%, or you shut down the PC suddenly when updating Windows.

In a word, the Windows system files are corrupt and you need to repair Windows. Then, you can try the following 3 ways.

• Run Startup Repair or SFC Commands. This will try to repair Windows. But if there are Windows updates, you need to install them later again.
• Perform a System Restore. This feature will revert your computer’s state to a previous point in time. The premise is that the system protection feature is not shut down and system restore points are created.
• Factory Reset the PC. This will reset the PC to the factory state.

To perform the above 3 ways, you can refer to the following guide.

Step 1: Enter WinRE. You can try powering on your computer and then shutting down it. Repeat this twice and you may enter the WinRE. Go to Troubleshoot > Advanced options.

Step 2: First, you can click Startup Repair and see if this method works. If not, you can then click Command Prompt and execute the command “sfc /scannow”. If this method also doesn’t work, you can then click System Restore and then follow the on-screen instructions to revert the Windows to a proper state.

Way 5. Upgrade or Reinstall Windows

Many people will prefer to use this method to remove the getting Windows ready stuck issue because they can’t enter WinRE. In addition, if your Windows system files are corrupt, this way will fix them immediately and upgrade the Windows to the latest version. Here is the guide:

Step 1: On a normal running PC, go to the Windows 10 or Windows 11 download page (this depends on what system your PC is using), and then download the Windows media creation tool.

Step 2: Insert a USB drive of at least 8GB into the PC. Then, run the Windows media creation tool. Follow the on-screen instructions to create installation media (USB flash drive, DVD, or ISO file) for another PC. Note that when it asks you to choose which media to use, choose USB flash drive.

Step 3: After the installation media is created, insert it into your computer stuck on getting Windows ready. Power on the computer. Then, press the BIOS key (F2, Del, Esc, etc.) when the PC logo appears. In the firmware, change the boot device to the USB drive. In this way, you can boot the PC from the USB installation media.

Step 4: When the PC boots up, you will see the Windows Setup interface. Follow the on-screen instructions to install Windows. Note that when it asks you which type of installation you want, choose Upgrade first. This will keep your files, settings, and apps. If this option fails, then choose Custom to reinstall Windows.

Way 6. Replace the Hard Drive

One user who had encountered the getting Windows ready stuck issue and solved it left a comment that the issue was caused by the system hard drive failure.

I think that strange behavior with Windows updates was due to the SSD dying, I just didn’t know that at the time.https://forums.tomshardware.com/threads/stuck-at-getting-windows-ready-after-performing-windows-update.2038680/#post-13960580

Therefore, if you have tried all the above methods but the issue persists, you need to check the hard drive for errors. The PC manufacturers may offer corresponding tools to check the hard drive. If no tool is offered, you can try MiniTool Partition Wizard.

This software can check hard drive health, clone hard drive, recover data from hard drive, convert MBR to GPT, etc. You can refer to the following guide to check if your hard drive is failing.

MiniTool Partition Wizard DemoClick to Download100%Clean & Safe

Step 5: On the Surface Test window, click Start Now. Then, MiniTool Partition Wizard will start reading data from the hard drive sector by sector. If there are bad sectors/blocks, they will be marked with red color. If there are too many red blocks, the disk is failing and you need to replace it.
