Hey, I just wanted to ask you about my issue it's driving me up the wall don't understand why a full reset using a download version of the Win 11 Update from Microsoft. I just ran it now got to around 75 to 80% I missed out on the excat % but I got a message that the new update failed. P.s. I had an issue my laptop started up just like always all and it needed a few windows 11 updates got all but 1 with a very similar error code as your friends above. I tried all normal methods of repairing and all troubleshooting ways plus into bluescreen option advanced tried a cmd repair and found out that I have the 87 error code here is a copy of both the different cmd input result commands I got, even ran both the fix windows update tools 1st: the 12 options that runs pretty much on auto just needed to type in the right numbers then 2nd: cmd as Administrator running the scf /scannow failed. Example 1: Windows Resource Protection found corrupt files but was unable to fix some of them. For online repairs, details are included in the CBS log file located at windir\Logs\CBS\CBS.log. For example C:\Windows\Logs\CBS\CBS.log. For offline repairs, details are included in the log file provided by the /OFFLOGFILE flag. Example 2: Error: 87 The cleanup-image option is unknown. For more information, refer to the help by running DISM.exe /?. The DISM log file can be found at C:\WINDOWS\Logs\DISM\dism.log This is where I'm stuck like I said I followed your advice not to use my computer files to reset windows 11 without losing my files and apps so I'm not sure what do you recommend do I need to do a full system reset all my files and apps bring Win 11 back from scratch? P.s This happened like I said above all but 1 update got the error code this was after my laptop just shut down think it wasn't a good shut down then did the restore from my last working update after putting in my bit locker number and after this is when it went crazy I can't open the Microsoft store, can't put the cursor in the search bar both the pinned just pops up then disappears then when I open my windows the above search as well will not let me type and last I can still watch Netflix and most other apps just can't use windows in it's correct format. Any help would be appreciated kind regards, Ben V

[@OnEst_Opinion]

Did the first few steps in this with the reset tool and the cmd steps, not 100% sure which one did the trick but IT WORKED!! And I wasn’t even having the error you were in this video. Mine would download and “install” the update but upon reboot it would fire right up into Windows like no update was even attempted. THANK YOU!! This has been the bane of my existence for weeks now. Every video I’ve watched on KZbin trying to fix this has assumed everyone’s and idiot and does the most basic troubleshooting methods, all which everyone has attempted prob before being on KZbin, and none have obviously worked. So amazing, I cannot thank you enough!! Liked, commented, and you got yourself a subscriber as well 😉 way to go man. Great job.

A good video Brian it has given me a few ideas if confronted with this problem. In the past I have found that pausing updates followed by a reboot has also fixed the problem.

Thanks again Brian, also thanks for the shoutout :) did all the usual stuff. Never occurred to me that I'd need to turn that off to install it, in all the years I've been doing it this is the 1st time I've needed to do that, considering what the update is it kinda made sense though haha.

Thank you Britec09 My last 2 updates wouldn't install. The two files are pending restart. What happens is it reboots then hangs with a circle spinning around for hours. Wind up having to do a restore which puts me back in the same situation. I did notice one thing. In my disk management. I do not show system reserve drive , but just system - does not say reserved . It is 28% fragmented and it won't let me defrag using the windows tool. Don't know if this could be the issue before I try these fixes in this video.

I am trying all the steps even with the first one select 2 not completing, I just went on to the next ones.

the solution was for me is to run creation tool from MS within windows 10 and I just upgrade windows while keeping the settings and apps ... and everything was working fine again.

[@HenryFalkner]

The only time I got this error was after uploading a Canon printer driver for the wrong model range. Deleting it in 'Settings/Bluetooth & other devices/Printers & Scanners' fixed it. I regularly do a 'Disk Cleanup' on 'Windows (C:) Properties'. If my operating system is no longer supported, updates are no longer available, and I use 'Windows Media Creator' to install a curent version of Windows. Replacing Windows 8 on Sandra's laptop with Windows 10 kept it going until the (irreplaceable) battery gave up.

A negative feeling to Windows Updates 10/11. I'm still using Windows 10 on one of my laptops. About March 2023, I've noticed that my Wifi 6E AX210 running at 2400 Mbps started misbehaving by dropping speed to 1200 Mbps and not stable with slow response in connecting Wifi and I thought my Wifi card may be needed for cleaning/replacement. When I have a July Updates, I've noticed that my Wifi speed can run as normal spec. at 2400 Mbps. I almost buy a new Wifi card due to March 2023 Updates. And I'm now calling the name of Windows as "Microsoft WIN iDiot Of WindowS" by their performances.

@@Britec09 Well, here’s some good news. When I rebuilt the desktop, switching to a single SSD drive from a previous Raid 1 setup, I did make an image copy of the rebuilt SSD onto one of the older hard drives. Replaced it in the desktop and it booted up okay. So, obviously, the SSD boot sector is cratered. Once I get the Windows and Norton back in sync, I will connect the SSD via USB and see if there’s anything I can do to ‘restore’ the drive. As long as I can access my data files, I’ll be happy. Maybe a new Beelink 4700U is in my future. Quick update: the system expand appears to have worked. The SSD shows the 3 partitions, with all of the data intact on both the C: and D: drives, it just won’t boot.
