Windows 10: Windows 10 update v1903

Unable to update my Aspire one 1-431 laptop. The update continually fails s it requires about 8GB to install and my laptop is unable to meet this requirement. I have stripped out all additional apps other that the windows installed ones, deleted any items in the recycle bin done disk clean and fragmentation and optimisation. Suggestions?

I will answer my own question.

0xC1900101 error on the event viewer suggests that driver problems caused the windows upgrade to v1903 to fail. Natural next step would be to upgrade to the latest drivers for the motherboard.

On gigabyte website for the motherboard B450-AORUS-PRO-WIFI, the latest drivers for bluetooth and WiFi is written for Windows 10 v1809. The most logical explanation at this point is that the drivers for bluetooth and WiFi is causing the installation problem because they are not written to support v1903. I cannot verify if this is the exact cause until Gigabyte releases the drivers for Windows 10 v1903.

I write this answer as reference. It may be helpful to other people who are having similar problems with Gigabyte B450-AORUS-PRO-WIFI motherboard.

Edit: I have finally solved the problem.
The culprit was unexpected. After I uninstall Avast Anti-virus software, I am able to upgrade to v1903. I have also installed all the latest drivers of Gigabyte B450-AORUS-PRO-WIFI motherboard available on their websites.

 

Windows 10 Tweaks

Pressing “Windows+Pause Break” (it’s up there next to scroll lock) opens the “System” Window.

Windows 10: In the new version of Windows, Explorer has a section called Quick Access. This includes your frequent folders and recent files. Explorer defaults to opening this page when you open a new window. If you’d rather open the usual This PC, with links to your drives and library folders, follow these steps:

• Open a new Explorer window.
• Click View in the ribbon.
• Click Options.
• Under General, next to “Open File Explorer to:” choose “This PC.”
• Click OK
