When you first time run your Windows 10, the system go through a series of screens. It is called Out of Box Experience (OOBE). We have earlier shared you this article in which we have discussed about OOBE in detail. Now in this article, we will share you about an issue that may occur while configuring OOBE settings. Usually, the OOBE set up should finish without any error. However, you may receive Something went wrong OOBESETTINGS message in some cases. We’ll discuss why this problem occurs and what you can do to get rid of it, in this article.
So as you can see in the above screenshot, I received this message while configuring a machine recently. During the OOBE screens, I have configured all the settings correctly but when this was about to finish, the error came up. If you are all also in similar situation like me, here is what you can do from here.
Fix: Something went wrong OOBESETTINGS
First of all, I should mention that Microsoft is already aware of this issue. The company has already acknowledged about the error. The company confirms that this problem may occur in very rare situations. Not everyone will face this issue. But the users who actually face this problem can try one of these remedies.
You have to click on the Try again button at the bottom of the error screen. Usually, this corrects the error and finish the OOBE wizard. Hence, the issue must be resolved with this.
In case if you receive the error again, you have to force shut down your system. Don’t worry! As the Windows is already installed and you are about to configure OOBE settings. Even if you shut down your system at this stage, Windows will simply restart and ask you to configure OOBE settings again. So do the needful and you should be able to finish OOBE settings this time, without the error.
That’s it!
