I've been trying to update to the latest Win11pro 22h2 since last December. Not working well at all. It always gets to 98% and then "something happened" and it rolls it back to 21h2 as you see below. I've tried everything except to nuke the SDD and treat it like is was a new unit. Not really wanting to go that route.
I started just with the Windows update, no joy.
moved to the ISO, mounted and install, no joy.
turned off my Antivirus and tried above two methods again, no joy.
uninstalled my Antivirus and tired above two methods again, no joy.
I've been reading these forums and trying their ideas, no joy.
need a little help here I guess to move forward. I've pasted my machine info below and there are links to SETUPACT.log, SETUPAPI.LOG, and a screen shot of the error after a reboot from trying to install from ISO and it did its automatic roll back.

SetupDiag is an official Microsoft tool. Rest assured, it's safe.
If you can upload Logs.zip that would be great. If not, upload panther\setupact.log. I believe more than one driver package is corrupt, but Setup stops at the first failure and the minidump will implicate only a single driver. So setupact.log is essential to resolve the issue.

Well I ran your "log" compiler and I saw the Command prompt gathering/scrolling through. It stopped and closed but I do not find this "Logs.zip" file anywhere on the PC. Hopefully I didn't just give you keys to my corvette. ;)
If I find it, I will post it.
