Error code: 0xc1900101 - 0x60016
Current build: Dev build 21286
TL,DR: I was a Beta insider, then I switched to Dev, got update from window updater in setting, downloaded, installed 100%, restarted, shows error 0xc1900101.
What I tried:
First step:
- I was on stable, joined beta insider.
- Got update build 19042 from updater, installed it.
- Switched to Dev.
- Got update build 21327 from updater, downloaded, installed 100%, PC asks to restart, Restarted.
- PC was not updated, it showed error 0xc1900101,
- Tried downloading, installing and rebooting many times, STILL SHOWING ERROR.
- I was still on build 19042.
Second step:
- I went to https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/software-download/windowsinsiderpreviewiso to download the windows insider iso file. Signed in with my MS account.
- Latest version (build 21327) was not there, only build 21286 was showing (look at screenshot)
- I downloaded the ISO, mounted it, ran setup.exe, went through all its step, it installed successfully then rebooted.
- Build 21286 was successfully installed.
- Checked the windows updater in setting,
- A new build 21322 was showing, I downloaded, installed 100%, rebooted, showed the same error as earlier 0xc1900101.
- I was now on build 21286.
Third step:
- Now I decided to check for errors.
- Ran sfc /scannow to check errors in installed OS, It ran successfully, and showed everything fine.
- Ran windows update troubleshooter, it also ran successfully, and showed everything fine.
- Then I downloaded SetupDiag.exe from MS website. ran it. got the log file, shows error.
- I'm attaching the log file below.
- I tried downloading, installing and rebooting again for like 2-3 times, It failed everytime.
- I'm still on build 21286.
Any help would be highly appreciated.

I suggest preforming a Reset from Windows settings, and after that use Windows update to upgrade your build to the latest build 21327.

@HotCakeX I tried resetting.
- I used the web to reset the PC (in case local files were corrupted)
- All download, install process ran, and after reboot, it shows:
- Reset was un-successful

Hi @hussain5416
Have you tried to perform a in-place upgrade with a stable release? Then try to link with your WIP account and choose Dev Channel.
