I have a Dell XPS 7100 with AMD hex core 1075T and 8GB ram. 500GB SSD & 1TB secondary drive.
I've been running W10 1803 quite happily but the nags from Microsoft are becoming irritating as 1803 nears end of support. I've tried installing 1903 at least a dozen times. I've followed every troubleshooting procedure I can find; I've pulled every peripheral including video card and sound card leaving just the mobo and SSD. Still get the same error "Windows could not configure one or more system components. To install Windows, restart the computer then restart the installation". I've updated all my drivers and BIOS.
I have run an install in place. I have not run a clean install because losing my (old) applications would be a disaster. Some of them (like Picasa) even if I could reinstall would lose much valuable information.
I know this PC is not "certified" for W10 so I'd be quite happy to stay with 1803. Is there a way to tell Microsoft to stop bugging me about the update? A total wipeout because of a future security breach would be no worse than having to do a clean install.
If that's not possible I'd sure like to know what's the problem. I created a Windows Update log and it's in my dropbox here:

I would sure appreciate any help.
Thanks, Joe
Locked Question. This question was migrated from the Microsoft Support Community. You can vote on whether it's helpful, but you can't add comments or replies or follow the question.
Getting your system to upgrade was really good work. Not many folks would stay with such a problem and find a resolution.
I suppose you are now the resident expert on this situation. Hopefully, you will be able to mark the thread solved if you do get 1903 to work so other folks will find it.
One other thing to consider, the folder I mentioned contains files/folders. On the two systems I checked, there are no files or folders in that folder. Possibly a configuration file is corrupted.
So, you might think about moving everything out of that folder to see what happens. Maybe that would allow you to uncheck the box..
C:\Windows\System32\inetsrv
I don't have any of those boxes checked but I was looking at the box you mention in Windows Features and it locked up my Desktop. Edge froze and I could not close the control panel..
The box you mention states it "Configure rules to block Certain client requests."
I remember seeing some commands regarding IIS and I think I remember one about filtering, so I will look into that. The fact everything locked up, may be a bug in Win 10..
Unfortunately Windows won't do it. 0x800F0922
You have now unchecked that entry, right?
