Hello

I never had any problems with my PC .

Windows 11, version 24H2 update is ready to install, I approve the restart, it starts working, stops at 68% for 5 minutes, then restarts and turns off PC. When I booth back, it simply wants to download it and install it again.

Troubleshooter shows Error but offers no solution.

I have downloaded the ISO and followed all instructions, but 26% in, the installer just stops all goes back to windows and says Windows 11 instalation failed.

Any ideas?

    Did you try their solution?

    >>

    1. Search for cmd. Press-and-hold or right-click on Command Prompt in the results, and select Run as administrator.
    2. At the command prompt, type mountvol y: /s and then hit Enter. This will add the Y: drive letter to access the System Partition.
    3. Switch to the Y drive by typing Y: and press Enter. Then, navigate to the Fonts folder by typing cd EFI\Microsoft\Boot\Fonts. Once there, type del *.* to delete font files. The system may ask you if you are sure to continue, press Y and then Enter to continue.

    I never had this issue. So I pass on it. I did get thrown into those weird drives a few times with a defective driver but it wasn't that partition was full. It's an intermediate position in the process. I had to type type type the drive letter to get going or something. Forgot exactly. But concerning when it suddenly drops into those drive letters.... for me when I wasn't expecting it.

    Then after 24h2 was installed it had updated to the defective driver. It was a "Muhammed" on a post that had identified the defective driver that messed up the process. If you followed the advice to update all drivers before doing the update you fell into the trap. The ISO method of taking update the drivers now or words to that effect gets the duff one in. So I went down that route and got bumped out a few times. That wasn't my main issue. That was the memory integrity driver, the Adobe DVD driver that was always lurking on the system that failed the final installation and could also crash you out into weird drives at 70%. Got multi boot points. Those youngsters can't write code anymore:).

    In all this nonsense you read those standard posts that aren't your solution rename this to that etc. The dust down installation. I just did the 23h2 inplace recovery which is available on the menu of 23h2 to dust it down before embarking on another "test" 24h2 update. Only googling fragments of the log file stumbled on the memory integrity test of the drivers as the solution.

    Well we hope 25h2 will be a lot smoother.
