Windows 10: In place repair causes Windows activation problem

Hi guys. I tried in-place repair as per answers from Microsoft answers of previous question. While doing the repair power goes off. After turned on, windows activation page shows the error code 0x80004005.All the root cause for this problem is AVG antivirus. I hereby attached all my recent thread which belongs to AVG problems

Troubleshoot Windows updates after an in place upgrade repair

Multiple troubleshooting steps had failed to fix net framework, scannow, and restorehealth problems.
And multiple in place upgrades failed.

Modifications were made on each in place upgrade.
The last one fixed the net framework, scannow, and restorehealth problems.

The computer is functioning normally now except for these 5 Windows updates.

Had the in place upgrade failed I was planning to custom install.
This requires reinstallation of drivers and applications.

With the last in place working I was considering another in place upgrade repair.

What repair methods are you suggesting that were not already performed after the last in place upgrade repair?

 

Windows Update to 1H21 causes loss of right-click function  

First step isn't right click. The download is a zip file. The program is portable.



If you can't even run that, and given other issues, and the length of this thread, and if an in-place upgrade repair install won't help, suggest you're looking at a clean install.

 

Repair install/in-place upgrade not proceeding normally  

Benjamin,

0 Can we take that as a new starting point then?

1 Your ISO is Version 21H1 and you downloaded it using TechBench WZT [Option 5 of Download Windows 10 ISO File - TenForumsTutorials]?

2 If you double-click on it, it 'mounts' as a virtual DVD drive?




3 Have you tested the ISO file structure's integrity?
- Copy the …\sources\install.wim or …\sources\install.esd file somewhere else [anywhere else that's big enough & for which you have access].





- If there is a copy error [… cannot find file …] then the file has been corrupted during download.
- You can delete the copy afterwards. It was only a by-product of the test.

4 If you are logged in to an Admin account and you double-click on its setup.exe, you get the responses stated in Repair Install Windows 10 with an In-place Upgrade - TenForumsTutorials [Steps 1,2,3,4,7+]?
- There is nothing documented to suggest that using the Built-in admin for a Repair install will cause problems but it should not be used for the job because failures would be impossible to diagnose.
- In any response about problems, please be specific about steps done successfully & steps producing errors or we'll be here all day.

I think we should stop bothering every other user of this rather major thread with every detail of attempted progress. If you agree then, in your next post, include
@Brink - Please move posts #1273 onwards into a new thread called something like Repair install not proceeding normally
