Unable to update (KB5034441) using below links

Man i saw people saying it worked and after i tried i got the error again so i was about to give up and decided to hit the "retry" button one last time cause i honestly don't know desperation? maybe and bum...it worked it got installed man i was never so happy seeing an update go threw like this one whoever you are please go treat yourself with something nice you are a life savior!

I saw that this worked for a lot of people... however this is my issue:

DISKPART> list part

Partition ### Type Size Offset

Partition 1 Recovery 499 MB 1024 KB

Partition 2 System 100 MB 500 MB

Partition 3 Reserved 16 MB 600 MB

Partition 4 Primary 111 GB 616 MB

DISKPART> sel part 4

Partition 4 is now the selected partition.

DISKPART> shrink desired=250 minimum=250

Virtual Disk Service error:

The specified shrink size is too big and will cause the volume to be

smaller than the minimum volume size.

I went ahead with the steps after this, selecting the recovery and deleting partition override, etc.... though of course the update still doesn't work because I wasn't able to shrink the primary partition size.

What should I do? :(

FYI -

Here are the exact steps I used on many Windows 10 Pro x64 systems to correct this KB5034441 error.

Restart Windows 10. Install KB5034441 through Windows Update without error.

Lyramuse: While in DISKPART, with your PRIMARY partition selected, you can run the command SHRINK QUERYMAX which will tell you how much space it thinks is available to shrink primary partition. If it says there are 0 MB available for shrinking, MS guidance says this can occur because “Additionally, you cannot shrink a volume with unmovable files located in the middle of the partition. If there are page files or other unmovable/locked system files at the end of the volume, it might also cause the problem there is not enough space on the disk to complete shrinking volume.”

I ran into this exact situation with a Win10 Pro desktop installation. I gave up and waited about a month. Then I tried again, and this time the process worked. Following Microsoft's instructions hereI was able to shrink the primary partition and then delete and re-create the WinRE partion. Upon re-creation, the new WinRE partition grabbed the extra space created by shrinking the primary partition, and the security update finally installed correctly, Perhaps in the intervening month the offending file(s) got moved away from the end of the volume. Just a guess, but if it is correct, maybe the best thing you can do is wait a few weeks (while using the PC in the meantime) and then try again?

Virtual Disk Service error:

smaller than the minimum volume size.

There is no point for you in shrinking partition 4 anyway.

If you have deleted the Recovery Partition already, enable the recovery environent right now. Run

reagentc /enable

Run Windows Update. Installation of KB 5034441 will succeed. You may make an attempt at restoring WinRE to a newly created Recovery Partition in the same spot later, but it's unlikely to work.
