    Resizing up to a 1000 MB did not resolve the error in one of my workstations.

    That is the instructions I followed.

    reagentc /enable just says it can't find the partition and reagentc /setpartition doesn't seem to accept the new partition no matter how I format the location

    Thank you @NumskyHusky. I have used the link you provided and have managed to get Windows Update to finally say that I am up to date.
