  1. Windows Update Error - Could Not Update System Reserved Partition


    I have been unable to update to the most recent version of windows 10 because whenever I click update an error pops up saying could not update system reserved partition. I think all I have to do is simply increase space in the partition but because the partition is a primary partition, windows disk manager doesn't let me do anything to it. Any sort of help would be greatly appreciated.

    :)

    Reserved Partition Error - Fix Doesn't Work


    When I registered my Windows 10 and went for updates, I got the stated error message (couldn't update the system reserve partition). On Microsoft's site, they list the steps you need to take to rectify the error. I was simply trying to follow the instructions.

    Apparently, I have insufficient space on the System Reserved partition.

  4. Windows Update Error - Could Not Update System Reserved Partition

    Error message "Can't update the system reserved partition."

    Windows requires about 500MB as system reserverd partition. You may extend system reserved partition to solve this problem.

    In disk management, you can only extend partition using the unallocated space next to its right side. so even if you shrink D: drive, the option to extend the efi partition is still grayed out. My suggestion is to use an third party software, AOMEI
    Partition Assistant, both the standard (free) or the Professional(paid) version can extend partition as long as there is unallocated space on that hard drive. to see more information read:
