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?
Locked Question. This question was migrated from the Microsoft Support Community. You can vote on whether it's helpful, but you can't add comments or replies or follow the question.
Globally, there are 1.5 billion Windows 10 or Windows 11 computers active every month. That is an incomprehensible number.
I see there are millions using some kind of linux system in luxury designer shells with a fruit stamped on, and we live a strange age where what we buy an indecent price isn't even ours while free stuff can be.
...But it's no excuse.
The same. Windows is a cancer to IT world. Microsoft just can't create usable and stable product.
I'm switching to Mac.
I've been through every test and check there is on what's supposedly causing the 24H2 update to fail. My install error tells me it falls over on the safe boot/drivers install stage. Trouble is I've run Microsoft's own memory integrity tool to find the offending driver and it tells me there isn't one! I'm heartily sick of trying to make this sodding update install and Microsoft's technical support is completely useless, populated as it is with generic responses to specific problems, stuff like..."make sure your PC is fully updated" and "do a clean boot before updating". NONE of it works and when you tell them that they go quiet. They clearly haven't got a clue what's going on here and I suspect a basic flaw in the update itself that they won't admit to.
One of these days I suppose I'll have to flatten my system and start again to get 24H2 to install, but I'm damned well not doing it until I need to and to hell with what Microsoft tells me about the supposed security implications of not having it. If it was that important they'd make sure the bloody thing worked for everyone and not just those with the latest kit!!

Always the log files from the ISO after looking at them for weeks googling extracts that's when I stumbled on the memory integrity check and someone said it's that to a 2024 question. Only at about 70%. 20% or so pesky drivers.
Have you tried the Farbar thing.
Can't download or install windows media player from store, starts download and they says there's been an error. I've tried 25+ times. I phoned the numbers they supply for help and they say to go on line. On line tells me to phone support. What a total joke Windows 11 is.
