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!

Install Linux and you will be happy. No bugs, etc. Good idea. Gracias.
Had the same problem. Was solved as I chose not to restart after the update, but to shutdown the computer (update and shutdown on the start menu). After switching the computer on again the update was installed.
Can you believe it?

I don't think that there exists such thing as a software with no bugs.
This is why the Linux community appears suspicious to me ;-)
This one is kinda weird.
When installing 1803, my old Dell Laptop (with a second display) went through one iteration on the primary screen (which is the external monitor), reboots, went through another iteration on the internal screen, then managed to turn itself OFF. When I turned it back on, it rolled-back the install and I'm prompted to do it again.
