Usually, at the time when this message appears, your PC is downloading or installing files and programs in the background. In some cases, it can take a very long time (2-3 hours). If the message doesn&rsquo;t disappear even after 2-3 hours, then go to the next method.<\/p><h2 id=\"method-2:-shut-down-your-computer\"><strong>Method 2: Shut down your computer<\/strong><\/h2><p align=\"justify\">You can press the Power button for 20-30 seconds to shut down your computer. Then restart your PC to see if the method works. In case your PC has a removable battery, take it out and insert the battery again. If this doesn&rsquo;t work, then move to the next method.<\/p><h2 id=\"method-3:-restore-your-pc\"><strong>Method 3: Restore your PC<\/strong><\/h2><p align=\"justify\">In this method, you can reset your PC to an earlier restore point. This way, your PC can return to a time when it was working. However, with this method, you also stand to lose access to data added after that specific time period.
