Good evening,

I decided yesterday around 5 PM to install Windows 10 on my desktop which is from 2016. I was on Windows 7 but I decided to switch to Windows 10 so I could use my Adobe suite software with their latest updates.

Since yesterday at 5 PM, the update has been stuck on the following messages:
-
Installing updates 30%
Do not turn off your PC. This process will take a while.

Your PC will restart several times.
-

My PC has never restarted nor shown any signs of life.



I don't know whether to wait or manually restart it, but I've seen on some forums that most people who chose to restart regret it strongly.
I have documents that I don’t want to lose on this computer, and I also don’t want to damage any components.

Hello. It's a serious mistake to install a new operating system without backing up all your documents.
Does the locked PC have access to the internet?
From another computer connected to the internet, create a live CD (or USB stick)

Backup ALL documents onto a USB drive and reinstall W10 from a USB stick.

So once all the documents are retrieved, do I turn off the computer manually?

And is it possible that by restarting it manually, no problems will arise afterwards?

How are you going to recover your documents when W10 is blocked?
You will have to force it to shut down.
