Need help upgrading to Windows 11 pro 24H2 form 23H2 0xc1900101 error

I have been trying to upgrade my PC Windows 11 Pro from 23H2 (build 22631.5262) to 24H2 for several months. The upgrade downloads but always fails with the 0xc1900101 error.

My pc meets all of the hardware requirements as per the Microsoft PC Health Check App. My system uses a Gigabyte Technology Co., Ltd. H470M DS3H -CF mother board, 2.90 gigahertz Intel Core i5-10400- 64 bit, 1.09 TB HDD, drive 0 15.85 Gigabytes Usable Memory, c: (NTFS on drive 0) , 1.09 TB 855.87 GB free. UEFI: American Megatrends Inc. F4 08/28/2020. All of the security update have been installed. All of the drivers have been updated. Memory integrity is on and there are no drivers listed in the vulnerable driver blocklist.

I disconnect the pc from the Internet/Router before running the update. Disconnected the old scanner and deleted the drivers and programs. Removed the Logitec 300 camera and deleted all of the drivers. Run the update troubleshooter. Run FSC and DISM. Reset Windows update components, all several times.

I have looked at C:$WINDOWS.~BT\Sources\Panther and opened setupact.log or setuperr.log to see where the update fails, but do not understand what I am looking for the failure.

Any help will be greatly appreciated.

    Thanks, Ramesh

    I did use the Windows backup/restore option to make a system image before we started.

    Will try the Logitech idea. If that doesn't work, I'll live with 23H2 until it is not supported.

    Before a clean install:

    These are steps that were not yet done that may be useful for troubleshooting the upgrade failure:

    (These scripts can collect data that were not in Farbar and other used scripts)

    (event viewer, dumps, hardware specifications, power and error reports, dxdiag, etc.)

    1. Run the V2 log collector and post a share link into this thread:

    BSOD - Posting Instructions | Windows 11 Forum (elevenforum.com)

    1. Run: upgrade_failure_info > post a share link

    1. Run the Bitdefender uninstall tool :

    How to Uninstall Your Bitdefender Security Solution on Windows

    How to Uninstall Your Bitdefender Security Solution on Windows

    1. Read this link on Windows Driver Verifier (WDV):

    Enable and Disable Driver Verifier in Windows 10

    https://www.tenforums.com/tutorials/5470-enable-disable-driver-verifier-windows-10-a.html

    1. Create a new restore point

    https://www.elevenforum.com/t/create-system-restore-point-in-windows-11.3602/

    1. Learn the methods to recover from BSOD caused by WDV by booting into safe mode and running one or more of these commands:

    verifier /reset

    verifier /bootmode resetonbootfail

    https://www.elevenforum.com/t/boot-to-advanced-startup-winre-in-windows-11.425/

    1. Plan to run the tool with various customized test settings.

    a) Test all non-Microsoft drivers

    b) Test no Microsoft drivers

    c) For the first run of WDV select the 3 customized tests displayed in the Ten Forums tutorial

    1. Whenever the WDV tool is started if there is no immediate BSOD then open administrative command prompt and copy and paste:

    verifier /querysettings

    Post a share link.

    Customized tests will then be posted for the next run of WDV.

    WDV can run continuously during the testing.

    For any BSOD post a new V2 share link into the newest post.

    1. Check Hyper-V settings:
    2. Check Sandbox settings:

    Hi Lewis,

    Sorry to hear that. It might be a clean install time then. The only drivers we didn't touch are the Google Drive (which adds a file system driver), Logitech G-Hub, and the chipset drivers, including ETDSMBus.inf. For further troubleshooting, it is recommended to create an OS image backup. Some options include Hasleo, AOMEI Backupper, EaseUS, or Macrium Reflect (not free of charge.)

    Edit:

    Uninstall Logitech G-Hub as well.

    • logi_joy_bus.sys
    • logi_joy_xlc.sys
    • logi_joy_xlcore.sys
