Yes, you can keep it disabled or set its "Startup type" to "Manual". The AppReadiness service only needed when a new user sign-in to Windows for first time or when adding new apps from Store.

For me it worked after creating a new windows user (solution 6), however not exactly as described here. After logging onto the newly created user's account, windows said it was setting up the new user. This took a longer than it should have (windows also displayed a 'this is taking longer than expected' message), so I got up and did something else.

When I returned, the new user was setup, however I still had the same issue. Now I logged out of the newly created user, and logged back on my usual account, and it seemed to be fixed.

After restarted the computer again, I now noticed that windows gave me the usual 'lets finish your setup' prompt I get every few months. I suspect that something went wrong in displaying this message?

Anyways, it's fixed now, hope this might help someone else out there.

My boot drive was a nvme m.2 that was on a PCI card. The drive volume order was altered and it was no longer my C: drive. Windows could not find what it needed and none of the options would work for me.

In advanced repair options I selected command prompt. This brought me to an x: drive. I went to my c: drive and I saw it was not my usual c: drive.

To fix I used the command diskpart.
once in diskpart I used 'list volume' to identify where my usual c: drive was and what was currently assigned to my c: drive.

I selected the volume assigned to c with "select volume 'x'" the x being the drive listed from step one. Then I reassigned it to its proper place with "assign letter U" (u is where it should be on my system"

Then I did a "select volume 'x'" where x is the volume that should be my c: drive.
Then "assign letter C" and finally "exit"

I typed c: and it took me to the correct drive. I exited out of the command shell and I rebooted.

It took about 10 minutes to startup but it finally did bring me to a login window and i didnt have weeks of rebuilding.

The screen is unresponsive to any keyboard input
