I was almost ready to lose mint because of overheating issues.įound a suggestion that mint 18 helps there, so persisting.
After a 5-10 minutes of "Searching for updates" it finally started working.Īside from updates problem, what else about behavior of Windows now seems different or broken?įirst off thanks for replies, after reviewing my old posts ,I thought I recognized gold_finger, helped me when I originally set up this dual boot in 2014. Open Windows explorer and navigate to C: -> Windows -> Downloaded Program Files, then select them all and delete them (need to be Admin to do that). If that's your problem, you may want to try what worked for me. (Haven't used Windows much in years, but decided to mess around with it a bit out of curiosity.) Spent hours searching for and implementing various "solutions" until I finally found one that worked to unstick the updater. I myself just finished dealing with that problem this past weekend on a used computer I purchased that had Win 7 on it. Web is full of people running into problems with Win 7 updates over the past year, particularly with it seemingly stuck looking for updates for hours with no result or progress.
Probably just coincidental that you're having problems with it around same time as change in boot files. Windows 7 update problems are probably not related to having the boot files in both partitions.
#Hhow to remove win 10 loader from sda1 and sda2 in grub how to
If that really bothers you, I don't know off-hand how to delete the boot files from sda2, but you can probably get answer on the Windows 7 forum. If I understand correctly, you now have two entries to boot Windows instead of just one. Not really sure that running that command from either live Mint dvd/usb or from your installed Mint will make any difference. Code: Select all sudo update-grub /dev/sda(Was just missing the "-" between "update" and "grub".)
