  2. Upgrade to 10 failed - unable to update reserved partition


    I'd like to see your Disk Management.

    Step 1: Download this zip file (contains dmDskmgr-vd.mmc)

    dmDskmgr-vd.zip
    Step 2: Double click dmDskmgr-vd.zip to open the compressed folder
    Double click dmDskmgr-vd.mmc to launch the custom Disk Management console
    You'll get an output similar to this:

    Press Alt+PrtScn to grab a snapshot of just the Disk Management window
    Open Paint and Ctrl+V to paste it, then save the image
    Attach the image to a new post.
    Option 2: Use Disk Management in the x-Menu (right click the Windows menu (aka Start), select Disk Management)
    Select View > Bottom > Disk list
    Maximize the window and grab the screen shot.

    Computer is failing to upgrade

    Hi Michelle,

    Most of the time, failed Windows updates occur due to damaged Windows updates component or third-party programs that prevents your computer to install the updates. For better assistance, we'll be needing additional information:

    • Is there an error code displayed when the updates failed to install?
    • If possible, can you send us a screenshot?

    As an initial troubleshooting step, we suggest that you run the troubleshooter for Windows updates and try installing it again. For your reference, check this article on where to download and run the
    Windows Update Troubleshooter.

    We're looking forward to your reply.
