------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Applications needed for this video and websites:
1. windowspro.eu/fix-windows-8-1... (It's actually not an application it's an .exe file)
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
1. Go to the above link and download the update KB3112336. If you do not know what bit you are using you can check simply by going to the start menu then settings then "PC and devices" and at the end click "PC info". In the "System type" if you see 64-bit download 64-bit if you see 32-bit download the 32-bit but if you see an x86 do not worry it's the same as 32-bit.
2. Once you downloaded the .exe file DO NOT OPEN it yet because it will say to you "Checking for updates" and it will get stuck forever like Windows Update but if you open the .exe file accidentally you can kill the process by going to the task manager. Now go to the Control Panel and click the first one that says "System and Security" and then click on "Windows Update" after you clicked it on the left side you will see "Change settings" click that and here on the "Important updates" section change the option from "(recommened)" to "(not recommended)". Do not worry you can change it after you finish with the updates.
3. Now go back to the .exe file and you can open it safely without getting stuck forever. Once opened it will pop-up a message saying to install it click "Yes". At the end it will require you to Reboot your computer.
4. After the installation is done go back to Control Panel and change the setting from "(not recommended)" to "(recommended)" and click "Check for updates" and you are done!

    HI Alex!!!! Soooo... here I am again! After 8 months of coming upon your super duper excellent work/page. I now used this video for updating windows 8 from MICROSOFT SURFACE 3 tablet. Took 3 hours and 20 minutes to update 127 of them! I have tips! So what i had to do this time was... download the software you provides in description Turn off WIFI then turn off COMPUTER Then disable updates Then go to downloads and click on the software you provided. Let it do its thing... Restart PC and enable updates as well as wait 20 minutes to detect... then 3 hours to update. 😎 GUYS!!! DON'T GIVE UP!!! THANKS AGAIN, ALEX!

    Hello Ely, welcome back once again!! Wow, looks like my method has done wonders to your devices and i'm really glad i could help with that :D. Weird technique that you did there but looks like it works just fine, it's just taking many hours which i don't think you had a problem with. I'm going to pin this comment for the people to see but unfortunately your 8 months old comment will get unpinned which doesn't really matter since you have a newer and update comment here. Wish i could pin 2 comments but impossible. What you said! Don't give up! It's my pleasure helping you, very glad :) Also, if you want, tell your friends/family to watch this video if they have the Windows 8 Stuck On Checking For Updates loop. If they don't, then it's all good!

After 6 months this video hit 10k views it took a long time but it's not a problem, we hit it anyways. 3 months ago i posted a comment saying "Thank you for 1k views" and after 3 months we hit 10k, who knows after 3 months again we may hit 20k views! We never know! Whoever watched this video i hope i fixed the issue. And again thanks everyone!

    Confirmed . The link works for US and Canada , Thanks a million Alex , My pc was stuck in the checking for updates mode after a fresh instal of 8.1. It went on forever. I found your youtube video wondering if it would fix my windows update problem even though i live in Canada. I wasn't sure if it would matter that the link was from the EU . So I created a restore point just incase it didn't jive with a U.S or Canadian system. I did exactly what you said and the download worked perfectly. I just had to remember to turn back on the auto updates after the restart. Everything works no problems. Oh by the way your english is fine i understood every word.

If i remember correctly i had Windows 8.1 before Windows 10 was released but i do not remember having this issue, i remember checking for updates (on 8.1) and found all the updates without being stuck forever, idk what Microsoft did to 8.1. Anyways i am also pretty knowledgeable with computers but i can not say I'm an expert with computers, i have lots of stuff to learn in order to be an expert but I'm only 16 years old and i don't know everything about computers. Of course i can do simple and advanced tasks on my PC or if someone asks me to do it and etc

If the windows update is stuck at 0%, restart your PC and download every other update except the one that's stuck. I hope you understood what i said.

Found a tip to check if it's really working by going to C:\Windows\SoftwareDistribution and checking if things get added as time passes by and it actually does (check time stamps)! Hope this helps for those who thinks downloads are stuck bec there's no indication in the progress bar. I'll just wait for this to finish and get back with an update :)

Glad you didn't get stuck on downloading because that another problem lol. Also another solution that is that you could try downloading 10 updates per time and that will make the progress bar move but as you said everything's working fine. Trust me the updates will take at least an hour to finish it's not like 10 min and done, it will take at least an hour, ofc it depends on how good your PC is and your internet speed

    Sure, but, unfortunately, this method it is not working on Windows 8 - when I'm trying to run that program it says something like: This update will not apply to your computer...

    Thank you for your answer (and video). Anyway, the problem was solved! I have updated my Windows 8 to Windows 10 (no extra costs), and that's it). Works even better now!

    Sorry for the late reply, i actually forgot to reply to your comment. And my pleasure! My video then was pretty much useless because you could straight up upgrade to Windows 10 with an ISO file or upgrade it straight from Windows itself lol

    I guess it cannot to Windows 10 because that language that you have in Windows 8.1 does not exist in Windows 10? I don't know, if you tell me what exactly it says then i will help you

    Worked, but after the process you have to wait even 30 min to the computer to find the updates

    Yep i know and you may ask why does that happen, well it's simply because there are like 150 updates and that's why it takes a looooong time to find the updates but it's worth waiting for sure

    In German? That's very weird, where does it say it exactly, at what point?
