22H2 Update--Not enough diskspace?
I have indications in my Registry that this update is unavailable due to lack of disk space. The "RedReason" key indicates "SystemDriveFull". The "SystemDriveTooFull" key has a value of 1. ...
Please ignore my last comment above. I pointed to wrong partition name.
The issue "RedReason" = "SystemDriveFull" you may see in WUfB report (update compliance) means that a UEFI partition on device has less than 15 MB of free space. Typically, free space in the UEFI partition is occupied by BIOS update files.
Windows can’t remove outdated files on its own. Thus, to fix the issue, you have to mount the hidden UEFI partition and remove the bios update files manually.
In my case I removed whole HP folder from the mounted partition.
Don’t forget to unmount the partition back.
Afterwards re-start compatibility scan.

DinarGalimov_person Thanks for the reply. In the end, I simply swapped out my 1TB hard drive for one that I purchased quite some time ago that's 2 TB. That enabled me to go in and enlarge the UEFI partition to a sufficient size that enabled me to eliminate the problem.
