Facing issue updating to the latest Windows Insider Preview Version

Copper Contributor

My system is currently running on "Windows 11 Home Insider Preview Single Language Evaluation Copy. Build 23531.ni_prerelease.230821-1359". My previous versions worked fine. But, after I updated my system to this version, all the drivers got uninstalled and I am unable to access my Bluetooth and USB connections. I tried updating the system to the latest insider preview build, the new version is being downloaded. But at the end of the installation, it is failing. I tried updating it for more than twenty times in the past few days.

 

Also, I tried resetting the system and also updating to the latest insider version. Nothing worked.

 

Below, I'm attaching the necessary screenshots:

Have you tried downloading the ISO and installing it manually. Windows Media Creation Tool does an excellent job and it may help you with all your Driver Issues by installing them for you. Once everything is up and running Check Updates again.

Thanks for the reply. I tried reinstalling the windows through the Windows Media Creation Tool, but it's not working for me. Also, I tried downloading the OS in ISO, other formats to reinstall it by resetting my system, but it failed since it is asking me to provide that OS installation file through some external disk or drive. The main issue here is that all the important drivers such as Bluetooth and mainly USB drivers got uninstalled when the last insider preview build was installed in my system. I even tried updating the OS with the help of Microsoft Catalog, but it didn't work either. So, I'm unable to update the current version to a newer version or reset the OS to some earlier point or version.

The next step I would take is try to do a recovery or reset. Here is a guide to help you along the way.

In-place upgrade with Dev ISO:

What is the model of computer? Laptop or Desktop?

Thanks,

You can get the latest updated version from here... https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows-insider/flight-hub/#active-development-23000-series-builds... Use Rufus https://rufus.ie/en/ and then make a bootable ISO on USB Drive to install.
