Hi, A friend has cloned his Windows drive from 128GB to 1TB, no problem. He changed the disks, i.e. removed old disk and replaced it with new disk. System boots fine, however Windows is now 'G', and in Disk Management the old disk is still showing as 'C' even though it is not attached! He...

I, like others, never knew about the new software until October last year when I visited their site. Anyway, uninstalled the old software, installed PowerChute Serial Shutdown and it has run smoothly ever since.

Easy to personalise.

Unless Thunderbird version shows 'esr', then other versions should be considered beta.

This is from another site. If you have Windows Sandbox installed, but do not have VM active in your BIOS, then the updates might fail. Advice is to remove Sandbox and try again.

Unless the ISO has the most recent updates included, it will not repair to the latest version. Without an updated ISO, the only way to do the repair install is through Windows Update, using the process I described here: KB5050009 problem installing.

Your are very welcome.

I have been having the exact problem, with the "Something went wrong......." at 36/37% since I upgraded to 24H2 when it was released. That is at every patch Tuesday, without fail. The only way I have found to make the update, is through Settings - Windows Update - Advanced Options - Recovery -...

I am going to mark this as solved (for now), as it seems that the only definitive way to achieve my original post is what I have stumbled on in the post above. It is possible that it may be reopened if anything changes.

I may, by accident, have found the solution. Normally, when I shut down my computer, especially overnight, I also turn off my monitor. A couple of days ago I had a power cut and my electricity was off for a few hours. When it came back I turned on my PC and my monitor was already on (having...

Still the same. I tried the recent prevuew update, KB5046740, and the same problem recurred. So, despite doing repair installs nothing has changed or improved! Weird behaviour on my Desktop PC (compatible), yet the updates install fine on 2 laptops (that are not Win11 compatible).

If anyone is interested, here is a link to what I believe are all the log files from the failed updates: Download Data package from November 15th.

Hi, I don't have trouble getting the updates, it is just that they won't install, always stoping at 37%, and then rolling back. I always have the get latest updates set to off.

OK, maybe a badly worded initial post. Any thoughts on why this is happening please?
