Windows 10: We couldn’t update system reserved partition” error installing Windows

Hi, I tried following the windows support article (for MBR) to try and resolve the above issue so that updates to 1903 could be applied. At step 10 you are instructed to backup permission to the srp drive and ensure all files are shown as successful and none are failed. When I did this 1 file was shown as failed but there are no additional instructions as to what action to take if this occurs. Any advice?

Are you implying DISM is showing a message about bootmgr? What is the message exactly? You may need to use a different DISM syntax and point to a /source:

Otherwise it may be bogus. For a possibly related incident see
