Windows 10: After running update in Windows 10 couldn't log on to my PC.

The first time it happened I tried everything and in the end started in Safe Mode and did a full Windows restore, which fixed the problem. Reloaded all my apps then Windows flagged a new update was due. I ran this and it crashed my PC again and can't boot up again. Now I can't even start the PC in Safe Mode. How do I fix this so it doesn't repeat I think the original update that caused the problem was KB5019959Thanks

Updating Windows 10 Home v1903 to v2004: "This PC can't run Windows 10"

Running Win 10 Home 64 bit v 1903 on a Dell Vostro 1320 laptop, when I try to update to v2004, I get the message "This PC can't run Windows 10" with the specific error, "We couldn't update the system reserved partition" (no error number). From the article
“We couldn’t update system reserved partition” error installing Windows 10 https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/help/3086249/we-couldn-t-update-system-reserved-partition-error-installing-windows,
I believe the problem is that Win 10 requires 13 MB free space on an MBR system reserve drive to update, and mine has only 12.7 MB free. The article suggests deleting fonts from the drive to free up more space.

Following the directions in the article, I renamed the SRP y:. When I tried to "takeown" the Boot\fonts directory (steps 8 and 9 under "Windows 10 with MBR partition." I received the error, "File ownership cannot be applied on insecure file systems; there
is no support for ACLs," perhaps because the SRP is FAT32, not NTFS. I appear to be stymied.

Can anyone suggest a way around this roadblock?

Thank you,

Terry

 

Windows 10 Tweaks

Pressing “Windows+Pause Break” (it’s up there next to scroll lock) opens the “System” Window.

Windows 10: In the new version of Windows, Explorer has a section called Quick Access. This includes your frequent folders and recent files. Explorer defaults to opening this page when you open a new window. If you’d rather open the usual This PC, with links to your drives and library folders, follow these steps:

• Open a new Explorer window.
• Click View in the ribbon.
• Click Options.
• Under General, next to “Open File Explorer to:” choose “This PC.”
• Click OK

Update KB4550961 couldn´t be installed

Hi! I´ve tried hard to install KB 4550961 unsuccessfully. Even run this or that in order to correct whatever the problem might be.

However, after restart it appears “Updates couldn’t be installed” on the screen. Running Scannow and Restorehealth as Administrator didn´t
work either.

I´ve also gone step by step thru “Fix Windows Update errors” steps 1 to 5. I´m reluctant to follow Step 6 Reset or Reinstall Windows –
Refresh is not included - because I´m afraid I might loss some stuff important, though I created a restoration point and a USB recovery drive, just in case.
