Thank you so much Microsoft as you have started the New Year off with bang with this update failure below on the first patch Tuesday of the year:
Installation Failure: Windows failed to install the following update with error 0x8024200B: 2024-01 Security Update for Windows 10 Version 22H2 for x64-based Systems (KB5034441).
Tried multiple times to install this brick but no luck on my OMEN desktop and my wife's Envy laptop. So now what Microsoft?

Hi microsoft, just wanted to let you know that it's been a month of this update error and still no fix. Because of this I will be buying a mac on my next computer purchase. Good thing too I was just about to upgrade to windows 11... dogged a bullet there. Thanks microsoft!
This update issue started with me with january-9-2024-kb5034122-os-builds-19044-3930, Failed to install - 0x80070017.
Similar issue previous update, are they still working on that one too?
I makes back up now and then of my photos, documents, and other...
I haven't many programs - only F-Secure Total, scanner software(MPNavigator) Gimp and Microsoft Office, so these, I can gent on the net.
I don’t know about others, but I have made sure my programs and documents are backed up on an external hard drive. I have a feeling Microsoft is going to get this messed up!
Basically what you are doing here is "invisibly" expanding the WinRE partition, as far as I can tell. The later installations of Windows 10/11, I believe, create a larger partition than was originally create/anticipated to be needed.
I don't have Windows 11, nor any system that can run this OS, but if I recall correctly Windows 11, either initially or after 22H2, created/expanded the WinRE partition.
Either way, this expansion should be something handled, as much as possible, in the background by a Windows Update, or as part of a Windows Update should an update require most WinRE space than is currently present on the system; so long as the expansion doesn't reduce the size of the boot partition to the extent that it will either overwrite existing data or create too little unused space on the partition for the system to boot and create the swap space/extend the swap space required.
