Windows Insiders Install Error 0xc1900101
I keep getting error 0xc1900101 when installing Windows Insiders updates. The update causes black screen and pixelation. I’ve tried multiple fixes but nothing works. What should I do?

Is your system booting in secure boot? or legacy, try boot in secure boot efi mode and proceed with update

Temporarily disable XMP/EXPO memory overclocking in the BIOS, then try the installation again using the default memory frequency.
Usually the upgrade error 0xc1900101 is due to conflict from installed software or external devices while you upgrade.
I highly recommend to temporarily disconnect external devices while you perform the upgrade.
