    I am trying updatng to 1903 Update, and i am keep getting this error 0xc1900101 - 0x30018 first_boot sysprep. I tried updating from windows update. And from ISO (offline) , and nothing helps. Even tried clean boot and unistalling antivirus.

  2. Error "0xC1900101 - 0x30018 - Error in the installation in the phase FIRST_BOOT with an error during the operation SYSPREP

    During multiple attempts at installing windows 10 upgrade from win 8.1, the process freezes at 32% total installation and 6% on the "drivers and features" section. I've waited over an hour with no change in either percentage number.
    Error Message: Error "0xC1900101 - 0x30018 - Error in the installation in the phase FIRST_BOOT with an error during the operation SYSPREP

    After reboot from the freeze, it just puts my OS back to Win 8.1. I've spent hours on phone with Microsoft with no solution. Do you have any suggestions?

    Thanks, Burt

    Windows 10 Anniversary Upgrade error 0xc1900101 - 0x30018 referring to SYSPREP

    OK, please, following you have an updated one step ahead question regarding my first question post on the title.

    The question now is, how possibly get some info or tracing/debug on, which possible reason is leading to this error referring to SYSPREP.

    In the net I found several posts for this, and the following link do have quite exact instructions what to look at and try, and I have also been following most of them, except maybe one-two, which I now will still follow on a next Upgrade trial in few hours.

    -> Windows 10 Upgrade First_Boot Failure with Error 0xC1900101 - 0x30018 - Tech Journey

    Here you have a summary of the background info for this case:

    • Windows 10 Anniversary Upgrade is stuck at ab. 32% done, in a minute after the second (despite named as FIRST_BOOT) restart at 30%, during the actual final update process phase, with blank grey display and power-on
    • after an emergency power-off in a quarter or so, the Upgrade trial will got reversed and following error splash window will pop-up:

    • the laptop is some 7yrs old with dual-core AMD 1.9GHz 32-bit, memory 3GB, and has been working great with Windows 10 Pro (updated from 8.1) since 9 months
    • I know there is outdatings with e.g. display driver, now run with the basic MS one, and Wi-Fi driver etc., but several of the risky devices and also software have been disabled during the Upgrade trials

    I hope someone could help me some step ahead on this.
