Checks system requirements. Everything is a go.

Did the download. 

Got message: "We couldn't update the system reserved partition."

How do I continue?

    Followed the link you provided. Have four partitions:

    1. Healthy (Recovery Partition)
    2. Healthy (EFI System Partition)
    3. Healthy (Boot, Page File, Crash Dump, Primary Partition)
    4. Healthy (Recovery Partition)

    When I select Disk Management Volumes tab the table is empty. No GPT or MBR.

    How should I proceed?

    Hi Greg

    Are those the partitions on your hard drive?

    If so, you have a UEFI system with a hard drive with a GPT partition style, so the GPT steps are the ones to follow on that page . . .

    Thought everything was going fine. Went through download and then started installation which has been stuck on 99% for 16 hours now. Doesn't seem normal to me. What are my alternatives?

    Hi Greg

    That update should take a maximum of maybe 3 hours and generally 2 hours . . .

    If that is still stuck at 99%, for that length of time, then you have no other choice, press and hold the Power Button on the casing of your PC for 5 - 10 seconds to perform a hard shut down

    Wait a few seconds and then start your PC again, that update will either complete, or it will roll back . . .
