Hi,

After installing Windows Server 2019, it gets stuck at Enabling Feature (s) as below.
86416-hyper-v-2021-04-10-01-04-01.png

After waiting for long time, I turned off the machine. When I turned it back on, the screen is normal.

How do I restart or reset the process that was aborted?

Previously I had the same issue. When I restarted installation process from beginning using the same bootable flash drive on the same machine, it was done normally.

What I need to check so that I don’t face same issue again?

With Regards
NndnG

    What features? What (if any) roles or features have been installed? Has the image been patched fully? Is this a core install?

    You skipped all the questions I asked. What operating system are you installing? What process are you trying to run? What are the end goals here?

    Hi NndnG,

    Which feature you were enabling? Have you tried enable it via PowerShell?
    Try to repair system files by the following commands
    Sfc /scannow
    Dism /Online /Cleanup-Image /RestoreHealth

    Then, enable your feature again.
    Besides, you could check CBS.log for feature installation process.
