I ended up uninstalling Windows and re-installing. That took care of the problem.

I reinstalled windows 11 where I kept my files and that is what worked for me.......make sure you a backup and disk image before you try. I use macrium and it's back up works like a charm @treebluedogs

Despite the install assistant asking for admin by itself when started, starting it as admin still made the difference and brought me past the dreaded 71%.
@treebluedogsIf you are using a file you can right click it and choose run as administrator.

I can also confirm that today I suffered the same issue, running the Windows 11 update 'as admin' worked to get me past the error.

Please check the hardware requirement and see if your device meets the minimum specifications. If not, you may upgrade your device.

Same - Stopped dead at 71% during the installation portion. Right Clicked to run as Admin on the .exe and it resolved this issue for me.
-Thanks for the help everyone!

Run as admin worked for me as well to pass the 71% Barrier. Thanks so much!!

@Err0r404This helped me too. I am only at 78% so far but at least I made it past the 71% threshold LOL. How running in admin mode made the difference I don't understand. Running an install app for upgrading to a newer version of the current OS should automatically set itself to admin mode and request login credentials if needed.
