    Open Disk Management, right-click the 647 MB partition and choose "Delete".

    Post screenshot once done.

    Please provide detailed instructions for this step:

    Delete the existing Recovery partition. Shrink the C drive as required and create a 750 MB Recovery partition.

    Update:

    Delete the existing Recovery partition. Shrink the C drive as required and create a 750 MB Recovery partition.

    Regarding the KB5034441 update:

    Resizing the Recovery partition to 750 MB or more will fix the issue. The error 0x80070643 occurs due to a lack of free disk space in the Recovery partition. Many cases have been reported today (especially for Windows 10).

    Unfortunately, the system event log doesn't have any diskpart-related events.

    After formatting the Recovery partition via Disk Management, please assign it a drive letter (S:)

    Using File Explorer, see if you can create this folder:

    S:\Recovery\WindowsRE

    And copy winre.wim to that folder.

    If that works, we may be able to complete the rest of the instructions using diskpart.
