    Update from 23H2 to 24H2 failed due to an external disk


    Windows indicates that the update from 23H2 to 24H2 failed due to an incompatible external disk Western Digital NVMe Disk.The update will therefore likely complete successfully if this external disk is disconnected from the PC.But after the update,, will this external disk work again for reading or copying data ?
