Windows 10: Can't update Windows 10 1809 to 1909 Error 0xC1900101 - 0x30017

Hi,


I've been trying to update my Asus laptop from the 1809 build of Windows 10 to the 1909 build without success. I've tried doing it from Windows 10 and the Update Assistant, and when those both failed, I made a USB boot drive and tried to reinstall Windows with the "Keep Your Files" option. All attempts eventually hung up on the Asus Bios boot screen without the Windows loading dots appearing. Rebooting from this screen sometimes reentered into the Windows Updating blue progress screen, but eventually they would all hang on the BIOS boot logo. On my last attempt the reinstall of Windows via USB boot I got the error in the subject line, along with the text "The installation failed in the FIRST_BOOT phase with an error during BOOT operation." Any solutions to this? My laptop is woefully out of date and I can't seem to find any other solution that works.

Error 0xC1900101 - 0x30017

Hello,

I recently tried to upgrade my licensed Windows 7 Professional to Windows 10 using the MS upgrade tool. Upon installation, my PC screen went blank and flickered intermittently, showing no further signs of completion of upgrade process.

Later the windows automatically reversed the installation and restored my computer to Windows 7. Upon restore, the error displayed was 0xC1900101 - 0x30017. I could not find the right trouble for the error given. Can Microsoft community help and support
by sharing step by step guidance to resolve this issue and upgrade to Windows 10.

 

Windows 10 Updates 1803 and 1809 Fail to install - Error 0xC1900101 0x30017

I have tried everything recommended in similar threads to install updates 1803 and 1809 (my PC is still stuck at 1709):

PC is Dell XPS 8700 with i7-4790, 24GB of RAM, 64-bit processor, 64-bit Windows 10 OS, Latest BIOS A13

• Deleted all old installation directories
• There is (never was) any anti-malware software (other than Windows defender)
• Removed all USB devices other than Microsoft wired mouse and keyboard
• Ran Windows Update Troubleshooter
• Clean Boot (disabled all startup items in msconfig and Task Manager)
  
• Tried all three methods: Windows Update, manually from Microsoft website, and using USB Media Creation Tool

The error is exactly the same on every attempt: "We couldn't install Windows 10... Installation failed in FIRST_BOOT... 0xC1900101 0x30017.

I've been pausing updates for 6 months now to avoid the endless update failure cycle. What is the fix for this?
