Disabling your antivirus for a short period of time while you install Windows update can also help solve the issue. In this case, try to install each one of them individually to pinpoint the one that is causing the issue. After you successfully reach your desktop screen, try re-installing the updates again. This fixes the issue sometimes because Windows is trying to rollback the updates that were corrupted or not installed properly and in doing so can take time depending on the speed of the hard drive on which Windows is installed.
Try these before moving onto the more detailed solutions to this problem.
