When the update was downloaded and prepared , it called me to restart the computer to install 1809 update . However, until 52%, it said that "Windows could not configure one or more system components. to install windows restart the computer." After it restore the system, i check out the update record and find that the error code is 0xc1900101-0x30018. What should i do?

P.S. I have fix windows update errors by using the dism and system update readiness before.

Ischte - I could kiss you. Your suggestion worked for me!

Rather than booting into Linux, I was able to rename the inetsrv folder to inetsrv.old in Windows by:

  1. Taking ownership of the folder
  2. Stopping the Application Host Helper Service

I then took ownership of the WinSxS folder in order to move the *windows-iis*.* folders to a backup folder on another drive.

With these out of the way, I then used the Windows 10 Update Assistant(rather than the ISO I had created), and updated successfully.

When the updater reached 52% - where it would normally create the error message - it instead went back to 46% for a moment, then jumped back to 54% and continued progressing from there. I'm guessing this is where it needed to rebuild the files I had removed.

Once the update was complete, I deleted the C:\Windows\System32\inetsrv.old folder.

All is well, and I am successfully updated to 1809. Thanks again for your help!

My solution:

I also had the problem with updating Windows 10 1803 (last version) to 1809 and the standstill at 52%, then rebooting and restoring the old version. I noticed in the logfile which I analyzed the part with "iissetup.exe" in connection with the abort. shift+f10 for a console and possible repair with regedit during setup didn't work for me.

Therefore I proceeded like this:

In the software deinstallation (control panel) and with msicleaner (msicuu) i removed all old .net and visual studio parts. And then i reinstalled them with offline installer versions. there were still remains of old installations, but in the end they didn't solve the problem.

Even with feature removal (control panel) and uncheck the box "internet information services" i couldn't get any further, because there were errors during deinstallation.

***

The crunch point was the following:

I booted with ubuntu linux and renamed the folder "c:\windows\system32\inetsrv" (which also contains the "iissetup.exe") e.g. to "inetsrv.old". Additionally, under "c:\windows\winsxs" I moved all folders with the name mask "*windows-iis*.*" to another location.

Then i booted windows 10 again and restarted the update via the windows 10 update assistant.

Now it ran error free through the installation and the files/folders under "inetsrv" and "winsxs" were rebuilt with the current version.

***

Now my system is update correctly to the latest Windows 18 1809 build patch level. No further problems.

Hope this help, Ischte

    It seems that the error is related to our hardware and the drivers...Such as some of Intel sound card ,AMD graphic card or other old hardware.Maybe version 1809 didn't support that. The manufacturers may not provide support on some old hardware. Hope Windows can solve that in the future.

    Hi Lok. I'm Greg, an installation specialist and 9 year Windows MVP, here to help you.

    I would wait at least a month before attempting Version 1809 again and this time install Media Creation Tool from this link, choosing the button to Install Tool Now and then open the installed app and choose Upgrade This PC Now: http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows-10/m...

    This is the most stable way to change to the latest version.

    If there are any hurdles during install then these steps can overcome them: http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/wiki...

    If these do not help then report back any verbatim error message or behavior.

    If you want to temporarily block the update then try running the Hide Updates tool downloaded and installed from here: http://download.microsoft.com/download/f/2/2/f2...

    If it wont' find and hide the Update then you can set a Metered Connection to turn off Windows Updates for awhile until the version matures and you can try again using the method I suggest which always works best: https://www.howtogeek.com/224471/how-to-prevent...

    Almost everyone with major version upgrade problems who Clean installs the same version does not have those problems. This Clean Install should get you past all difficulties as it has hundreds of thousands of others who have followed the steps in this link and never come back to report another problem: http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/wiki...

    I hope this helps. Feel free to ask back any questions and let us know how it goes. I will keep working with you until it's resolved.

    1809 has been pulled and attempt it again when it rereleases. Using an older ISO would have a risk of losing files.

    If the attempt fails then too, ask a new question or reply to this thread.
