It is July 3rd now and the issue still remains, download stops at 8% for "windows 11 upgrade" via windows update, "some files missing" message still displays. Tried all the solutions suggested. Don't want to put a new c drive in and do aclean install and lose all my apps.

get error - CHostIsUEFICompliantChecker failed. [Failed to check whether host has UEFI disk layout.] HRESULT = 0x80070003[gle=0x00000001]
But C: drive IS GPT and UEFI and system information says BIOS Mode UEFI. - Ian MannJul 04, 2022Copper ContributorNo extenal drives - have a web cam, disconnected that and it made no difference.

Surely you have external drives connected, or other devices permanently to your computer -> it looks like disconnecting this, restarting and trying to update has a chance of success.
- Ian MannJul 04, 2022Copper ContributorThanks - The PC is on 24/7 except for some restarts occassionally.
- DeletedJul 04, 2022sometimes restarting your computer every 2 hours can help.
- Ian MannJul 04, 2022Copper ContributorI just think that my version of Windows 11 is not ready yet.
- Ian MannJul 04, 2022Copper ContributorAll drivers are up to date. Updates from store for most apps/software.

Do you download updates for apps directly from the Microsoft Store?
Have you downloaded the latest drivers from your PC manufacturer's website? - Ian MannJul 03, 2022Copper Contributor
