I am trying to install the new Windows 11 update from Windows Update, but I keep getting error 0xc1900101.
The installation starts, and after a couple restarts, it says:
" Attempting to recover installation "
" Undoing changes made to your computer "
And then I am greeted with error 0xc1900101 on Windows Update.

it depends on what system you are running but yes I also had to unplug my second m.2 in order for it to install and I got the same error 6 times before I figured it out .This is the kind of error that Microsoft should have seen coming but didnt prep for it .
Everyone has different reasons for the error. my WIN11 does not see the hard drive. this algorithm helped me https://www.asus.com/support/FAQ/1044458/ win11 does not contain drivers for 11 series. win10 works without problems

is this a proven solution for the 0xc1900101 error? if so, why is everybody ignoring it?
It is very good news that your system has been allowed to run windows 11.
But I continue with my nagging of Microsoft because if your computer ran perfectly well with windows 10 I see no reasonable excuse for it not to run on windows 11.
What in the world will windows 11 do when it runs across all of the common users that don’t have these kinds of skills or access to these kinds of resources.
