Question Win 11 problem downloading repeatedly

[revphelps]

I have a Surface Pro 7 that could be updated to Win 11. I let it update. It downloaded to 100%. But instead of auto installing, it began downloading it again to 100%. How do I get it to install? Or should I forget Win11?

How do I get it to install?

download the MS Media Creation Tool and install it manually.

Or should I forget Win11?

that would be my suggestion.
i've already tried it and within a week or so i switched back to 10 and have been much happier with it.

Thanks. Win 11 finally installed after several auto downloads.

you might want to check that you have enough free drive space
and google
"how to clear windows update cache"

(corrupted update cache might not finish the download due to a error)
( a completed download might fail if there is not enough free disk space)
