Failure to install Windows 10 April Update(version 1803)

I am unable to install The Windows 10 Feature update to OS version 1803(from version 1709) on my PC.

It is giving 0xc1900101 error. I have all the latest drivers on my PC. The current OS build of my PC is 16299.371.

After each failure, the update gets downloaded again and it has failed 5 times.

I would be grateful if someone could please help.

It's shocking how so many people are experiencing these recent Windows update issues. I am one of them and feel utterly abandoned by Microsoft when trying to seek help. It's also a poor response to expect people to run through detailed steps, including in some cases editing the system Registry in a vane attempt to resolve these issues. Microsoft please step up and resolve these issues once and for all, you have a responsibility to do so!

Completely agree!

You are awesome. Worked for me too. Thanks for that. Much appreicated

I followed the above instructions, I did one more thing as well.  I went to settings  - system - power and sleep.  I set both screen and sleep to NEVER so the computer would not stop.

I have to say that I am beyond pissed with this. There is no doubt that this was not ready for prime time. You should NEVER have to go through the steps as listed to update an OS. So far I have bricked 2 computers because what happens when this update fails it goes through the Window's Automatic Repair which eventually tells you that it can't repair the system and to shut it off or advance troubleshooting. Follow those steps and you can't self reinstall the OS. Unreal. So to date I have over 500 dollars into this as I lost the OS, Office and data. The OS and Office were single use. 6 hours into the third reinstall I hit the same snag and finally check here to see it isn't the system. It is Microsoft. So now I have to use my own DVD or make a USB compatable to down load this turd and hope it installs?

This strategy based on Vijay Verma's post and also setting my computer so it wouldn't snooze in the middle of the download or installation worked.
