    I agree that it was the $WinREAgent file & it causes the problem in a CPU updated from Win10 to 11. I have no issue with my PC born Win11.

    @MaggieHeller and @Danny Leedy,

    Fold, you do not need to download anything.

    Just follow the simple instruction as per the thread referenced in the following link.

    For an easy way to resolve this problem go see this article. It worked for me...

    WIN 11 KB5034765 install problem

    In a nutshell, just simply rename the hidden folder C:$WinREAgent to something else, like C:$WinREAgent.renamedToCorrectUpdateProblem ...or to what ever you like.

    Just unhide and rename that folder. Keep it around just in case future MS updates need it again...but I would dough that will happen.

    Think this folder was made by updates to your WIN10 OS installation. When upgrading to WIN11, the folder stays hidden and present on your C drive and cause the update error in WIN11!!!

    It is bizarre that the MICROSOFT people do not make this check in their WIN11 update processes...go figure why not!!!

    PS...I AM NOT A MICROSOFT EMPLOYEE. I GO DOWN MS PROBLEM RABBIT HOLES JUST LIKE MOST PEOPLE

    Good luck!!!

    After it downloads, what do we do with it? How do we install it?
