Have tried so many resets I am surprised the hard drive is no knackered. Clean boots, disabling drivers, changing system configuration to hide all microsoft services and disabling non microsoft all fail with the same error.
I have tried all the things you are told to do by microsoft in their pages and still get the same error. Lenovo wipe their feet and say its beyond their support when asked. Nothing I have been told by any representative here has worked. The only thing I have yet to try is a clean install of windows 10!
The computer is as follows:
Lenovo Ideacentre 310s-08asr amd a9-9245 radeon r5 compute cores 2c+3G
8Gb Memory
860Gb free on hard drive
Razer Chroma keyboard
Windows Defender used no 3rd party
Have been told it is the mcafee boot protection but mcafee has been removed after every windows reinstallation, the mcafee removal tool three times.
The previous update via media creation too i tried update and that failed but gave no error code.
This time i tried the iso file and update and yet again it failed but this time i get error 0xc1900101-0x20017
When i use windows update i just get error 0xc1900101 and nothing else.
In the past i have disabled all non microsoft services and i have also disabled display adapters; Printers, sound, video and game controllers and did a restart and that failed also.
I have tried everything the advisers have said and that failed everytime.

2020-11-23T16:57:14+00:00 Dear Graham,I recommend making a repair on corrupted files by executing the commands below:
Press the Windows + X keys, select Command Prompt (Admin), copy and paste the commands below and press enter after each command.
sfc /scannow
Dism/Online/Cleanup-Image/CheckHealth
Dism/Online/Cleanup-Image/ScanHealth
Dism/Online/Cleanup-Image/RestoreHealth
Restart your computer and see if the problem still exists.
I hope I helped, see you soon!

Have had this on previous attempts and I have also had that no problems could found. Have looked the NET HELPMSG 2182 and found it unhelpful.

2020-11-23T16:37:04+00:00 Hello Graham,welcome to the Microsoft community, my name is Luiz Cruz, an independent consultant and I would be happy to help you.
I understand that you are having problems updating Windows 10, initially I suggest running Windows "Troubleshooting".
In the Windows search bar type: Windows update and enter, in Update and Security, scroll down to "Troubleshooting", run and see if the problem is fixed.
If it doesn't work I suggest the steps below:
- Press the Windows + R flag key, type Notepad and click OK;
- Copy and paste the commands below into this new notebook:
SC config trustedinstaller start=auto
net stop wuauserv
net stop bits
cd %windir%
Ren SoftwareDistribution SoftwareDistribution.old
dism /online /cleanup-image /restorehealth
- Click the File tab> Save As> Select the desktop;
- Set the name to Wufix.bat and in the field below under Type select all files;
- Click save;
- Right-click on the Wufix file and click Run as administrator;
- Wait until the end of the procedure on the black screen;
- Restart the PC and see if the error persists.
Tip: in some cases a second reboot may be required to complete the KB installation.
I hope I helped, see you soon!
