Announcing Windows 10 Insider Preview Build 19587
So this build has a new issue....
Notice: We had a problem with this update....run Fix issues
I run fix issues (select button).....it runs.
"We couldn't update the system reserved partition"
"This PC can't run windows 10"
Other than this being a business class laptop....it has been running the windows 10 insider program for years.

do you get that error when downloading or during install? never seen it happen to me
I had never seen it before either....it popped up during the beginning of the download.
I was one of the ones that had builds stuck at 62% at the beginning of the year. It was posted all over feedback hub.
I resolved the (stuck) issue after i found reagentc /info showed that winre.wim was disabled and in fact missing.
Since the machine is essentially static except for insider build installs / updates.....the source of the problem must have been an update in December.
I don't know if there is a new image that was larger or what....but my system/recovery partitions are over sized and there is unallocated space on Both Disks as well.
- Oh, well since you're using insider builds and I am too, as my default everyday OS, I'm gonna suggest what I myself would do. just grab a copy of the original Windows 10 1909 from here:
https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/software-download/windows10
clean install it on your C drive, backup your data and move them to other drives, you know the drill. during install, format all your C partition, recovery partition, system partition and things like that. if there is empty space, add it to your C drive during the Windows 10 install process.
once you install it, fully update it from Windows update and only then join insider fast ring from Windows 10 settings and install it over it. I've done it a couple of times in the past year. takes roughly 3 hours the whole process for me (including installing Office365).
when things like this happen, i mean the corruption in system files and missing items, I don't bother, just clean install it. although they never happened to me as far as i remember, the reason why I clean installed my OS a couple times in the past year was my own mistakes and experiments I myself did. there might probably be better ways out there but this one seems to be the simplest and quickest for me.
hope that helps 🙂
