Hi, the exact error code would help a lot here. In the meantime, I would run the Windows Update troubleshooter, then open an elevated command prompt and run DISM /Online /Cleanup-Image /RestoreHealth followed by sfc /scannow. If it still fails after restart, clear the Windows Update cache by stopping the update services and renaming SoftwareDistribution. Also unplug nonessential devices during the update attempt.

Hi,
thank you for your reply. The exact error code is 0xc1900101.
I did try the steps in your message but I am still having the same problem after restart.
Do you tink a clean install will help?
