    Can't update or factory reset computer


    Recently my computer has failed to update every time it tries to, and it attempts to update every single time I turn it on, each time saying "we couldn't complete the updates, undoing changes".I tried a factory reset and that failed similarly, also with no error code.The internet generally seems to solution to this issue is to run an sfc scan sfc /scannow which will reveal/fix any problems. The scan reported no issues, and I still couldn't update or reset. The other option is to enter this in the command line: DISM.exe /Online /Cleanup-image /RestorehealthI don't fully know what that did bu

    Factory Reset

    Hi Cameron,

    Since you did a factory reset on your computer, possibly the outdated network adapter driver causes the connection issue. Just for clarification, did you install the updated network drivers? If not, we suggest that you update the Network adapter driver.



    • Go to Device Manager, then click Network adapters and select the network adapter name.
    • Press and hold (or right-click) the network adapter, and then select
      Update Driver Software
      > Search automatically for updated driver software. Follow the steps, then select
      Close.
    • After installing the updated driver, restart the computer.

    If Windows can’t find a new driver for your network adapter, visit the PC manufacturer’s website and download the latest network adapter driver from there.



    If the issue persists, we recommend that you follow the troubleshooting steps provided on this link:
    Fix network connection issues in Windows 10.

    Feel free to send us your feedback at your convenience.
