Hello,

0xC1900101 is generic error code and points to driver incompatibility while you opt to upgrade. You need to read the dialog, which likely came before this error message. There should be additional information with the detail. The dialog will tell you what devices are having a problem. That is the one you need to get a new driver for. 

Once you fixed the driver(s) mentioned with detail, the error will no longer persist.

Hope this helps!

    This is the 3rd time this year Microsoft updates have stopped me using my PC.

    I have had a laptop tanked by updates this year, and now presumably, they are trying to

    tank my PC. 

    I used to love Microsoft, but this is unacceptable. 

    What if I buy a new computer, not so great for the environment, who guarantees updates will not

    have problems and destroy that computer. 

    I'm pretty computer literate, and am appalled that the testing before releasing an updates is so poor.

    Look at all the people reporting problems on this update alone.

    My computer was working great yesterday, now it's a drag just to get it turned back on.

    I am writing this just in case Microsoft does not understand how much damage they are are doing to their reputation.

    Would love to just get on with my work.

    I had a blue screen after the second reboot with the enterprise edition and going back to the old version. At my older Fujitsu-Laptop I disconnected the second screen and all USB-devices. During the first shutdown I let the laptop turn off and then it worked all fine.

    Believe me, I feel your pain my friend. Last Friday morning I turned on my computer right before I got in the the shower so i could print out a report for work when I was done; I came back 35 minutes later and the update screen was on! I was late for work and had to get it printed at a coffee shop. 

    You are right, this would be unacceptable in any other business. What's scary is that we have no control anymore, many of the options are grayed our or we are denied access, and once people learn how to work around these issues the company issues another update! I managed to set one of my laptops so that it didn't update for almost a year (June 2017); on Monday I turned it on and I got an update restart message after about an hour! 

    There are several class action lawsuits against Microsoft already; their employees have admitted they release updates way before they are ready; we are forced beta testers. You would think that they would have learned not to rush these updates, or at least have the decency to fix them immediately, instead they admit theyre broken and put a bunch of DIY steps on their website....and when all else fails; "A clean install may be necessary". 

    If there was a decent, bare bones alternative OS, that you could easily build on to using a wide range of options, all without having a degree in computer science it would take off.

    Good Luck with shutting off updates.

    Here is a summary of what I was told

    From Sumit, an Independent advisor and a Microsoft MVP 

     I would like to let you know that controlling Windows updates is somewhat difficult in Windows 10, but you can see the options here:

    If you have Windows 10 Pro , Methods 4 and 5 are the best way to resolve this as Windows would always ask you to before downloading updates.

    Another way would be to use a 3rd party app like Stop Updates10. which allows you to disable Windows 10 Updates with a single click.
