Failed Installation of Windows 11 Insider Preview 10.0.26120.3281 (ge_release_upr)

I have tried to install Windows 11 Insider Preview 10.0.26120.3281 (ge_release_upr) multiple times since January.  It downloads okay, but stalls somewhere between 35 and 85%.  Help!

    I started the ISO 26100.2161 (24H2) install, but saw no Repair option - only complete delete and reinstall with no save of personal data and folders.  I quit.  Net result:  No progress.

    Strange that the OP has deleted a suggestion on how he can resolve the problem by looking at previous solutions, but at least he now provided some information about the problem that enables someone to give him the information he has had deleted.

      I'm not sure if you are referring to me or not, but I have not deleted any possible solutions.  My prior separate request remains unanswered.

    Similar to the issue that I am having and I then have this error message. I am also left with an entry in the boot menu shown below and a lathe directory on the SSD.

     

     

     

    Cleaning up after the failed install does not resolve the issue with installing this update, nor does installing an in-place upgrade with this build included from UUDump, I get exactly the same messages wherever I get the files from or however I choose to install this update.

     

    The computer is a Dell 7430 running Win11 26100.3194 with 16Gb memory and a 12th Gen Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-1270P 2.20 GHz processor. There are no issues shown in device manager or anywhere else.

      This is a different problem than mine.  I receive Error Code 0x80070032 at 25-95% installation.

        I did say 'similar', not the same and perhaps if you had provided the error code then someone might have responded about your actual issue. ๐Ÿ˜‰

        There are lots of solutions for 0x80070032 on the net, and even YouTube videos on how to cure that error for various flavours of Windows.

      This problem is different from mine and irrelevant.
