“Configuring Windows Features 100% - Please do not turn off your computer” error is displayed intermittently upon system shutdown or reboot

| Answer ID: 911
During shut down or reboot, the system got stuck at the message “Configuring Windows Features 100% - Please do not turn off your computer”.

When you see this message, Windows is performing an automatic uninstallation of unused language packs to free up more space on your system.

The duration depends on how many languages are being removed, as it will accumulate if the system is never shut down or rebooted for a period of time.

To avoid seeing this message again, you can perform the following workaround procedures to manually remove the language packs that you do not need:

  1. On your Desktop, press the Windows key and type “lpksetup”.
  2. Click on “Uninstall display languages”.
  3. Select the languages you wanted to remove and click “Next”.
  4. A progress bar will appear to give feedback on the language pack uninstall process.

These steps might take some time, approximately more than an hour. It is advisable to run this when the system is not actively in use.
