Hi, my Windows 11 environment runs on a VM, just want to make sure this is understood.

KB4471332 fails with 0x800f0922, EFI partition is over 500MB

I'm having trouble installing Windows 1809 update KB4471332, it's failing with the error 0x800f0922.

Having done some googling and searching here, many of the suggested solutions involve ensuring the EFI partition is 500MB or more. I encountered a similar issue a while ago and in doing so rebuilt the EFI partition (I had a drive clone gone bad, only the data partition was copied!) and resized it to make sure it was over 500MB. Since then I've had no issues. This is a 'repair install' also, having run the 1809 ISO a few weeks ago. (Having had no issues installing updates since. This is the first problem I'm having with this install)

Partition layout

I've also tried resetting Windows Update via the troubleshooter and clearing the softwaredistribution folder then attempting the update once more. I've even downloaded the standalone updater from the update catalogue. Each time it installs, reboots, gets to around 96% 'configuring update' after the reboot then says it was unable to complete the update and is reverting changes. Upon checking event viewer the error 0x800f0922 is logged.

Any help would be much appreciated!

 

Resize Windows 10 System Partition

Hi Adrain,

Thank you for posting your query in Microsoft Community.

I understand your concern, and we in Community will try to help you in the best possible way we can.

I suggest you to follow the steps below and check if that helps.

• Run Disk Management. Open Run Command (Windows button +R) a dialog box will open and type "diskmgmt.msc".
• In the Disk Management screen, just right-click on the partition that you want to shrink, and select “Extend Volume” from the menu
• Locate your system partition — that’s probably the C: partition. Right-click on it and select “Shrink Volume.” If you have multiple partitions on your hard drive, you could also choose to resize a different partition to free up space.

Hope the information helps. Please let us know if the issue persist and we will be happy to assist you further.
