frustrating update of KB5034441

In the backup method, I got some illegal character errors for these lines:
$sourceItemPath = Join-Path -Path $sourcePath -ChildPath $item.Name

Copy-Item -LiteralPath $sourceItemPath -Destination $destItemPath -Recurse -Force

But, even after resizing the partition several times, up to 2 GB, I still get the same error on some machines. I have noticed that it is only happening on Server 2022, 21H2, 20348.2322 when the Windows RE partition was already over 500MB. On computers with the same build and a smaller recovery partition, the install went fine many weeks ago.

Thank you for the script though, it was good to see how to do these things, and query the free space within unmounted partitions.

Well put my good man.

IMHO I predict W11 to be a failure like ME/Vista/W8, as only XP/W7/W10 recoognized as mostly "no sweat" versions by me. So hopefully W12 is ready before W10 is EOL'd (meaning "cut from security support"). For the rest (like "unfit" HW) so to partially increase sustainability, I guess Torvalds products are great for such application, especially Mint21. Hence I actively support https://labdoo.ch/ . Finally all seems alike the movement of 500-600y ago (Protestant Reformation) these days.... just do not want to end like Jan Hus or Huldrych Zwingli ;-). If we manage to make the computer industry great again would likely be a task for the youngsters.... them living on inherited funds or having parents doing so makes them "feeling too comfortable" as well I say their raising was based on too many compromises so they feel better in using their cellphones, investing into bitcoins and have fun with AI ... rather than getting their hands dirty and minds straight.... the old grey fox is over and out (as a radio amateur I would state: QRT)

I tried everything Micro$oft said to do and I got errors everytime, I even tried to change the size of the drive MRE I believe it was and got an error saying I could not change an OEM drive size or something like that. I tried for 3 hrs trying to get this thing to work and all I managed to get done was give myself a migraine headache trying to fix this. That is why I am NO LONGER a tech even though I am certified still, I no longer like working on PC's because I get migraines from it now. After working on PC's for 45 yrs, my brain is fried from troubleshooting this **** so much.

Didn't work for me either, I have tried all their little tricks/line commands etc... and still not update. I think it is a ploy to get everyone to pay to update to WIN11 but my PC will not except WIN11 it says my CPU is not compatible, and I am not going to buy a new CPU when the one I have works fine. I too bought 10 Pro and now they want me to get 11. I think I am gonna dump Micro$oft because Bill Gates is EVIL and switch my OS over to Linux. It is a more secure and stable OS and less likely to get attacked by Malware and Viruses. I ran Ubuntu in the past but stopped using Linux because it is a heavy learning curve than Windows. You have to learn alot because it is so different!
