The installation process of Windows 10 is quite complicated in the background, as easy as it is in the foreground. There have been some scenarios where the installation is stuck at the Hi screen. The user is not able to enter the information in the given fields and the screen therefore does not continue. Some of the reasons for this abnormal behavior are a corrupted configuration image, an invalid boot configuration, and so on.
