Windows 11 Insider Preview 10.0.26052.1100 (ge_release) Install error - 0xc1900101

I have a Ryzen 9 5900 HX (it is a Cezanne board for AIO and Laptops - mine is a Miniforums AIO) with 32 GB RAM.
Updating from 23xxx to 26052 it's been one of the worst experiences of update I ever had with Microsoft.
If it may be of some use, the neverendingly update of my Ryzen that at 80% decided to stop progressing, requested a fresh install (from a USB dongle) of the 23xxx DEV Build.
Then I installed the AMD chipset (for the TPM and other AMD proprietary files), the Adrenalin 24.1.1 and nothing else (be excepted for the MS Store library list).
Then I launched the 26052/8 update being sure that Windows Security updates and .NET framework updates had been installed and Windows rebooted.
A couple of hours (a madness with a Ryzen 9 with only a list of apps from the Store) and I won: I had the 26052 installed.
Then I discovered that an enormous bug with VPNs started a new nightmare: if you are curious and you'll succeed to install 26052 or 26058 read my last reply to this thread (Re: VPN fix for Insider's build - Page 2 - Microsoft Community Hub). Hope that a cumulative update or a new build in the 26000 series will soon resolve this problem.
Back to update, on Ryzen a Fresh Reinstall and the Chipset and drivers update from AMD Drivers and Support | AMD solved the problem.
Same happened on my Skylake ASUS notebook (i7 - 16 GB Ram). After 2 days hanging at 80% install and 20% reboot, I did the same.
Fresh install, hyper update of drivers (overall TPM) and then a reboot and let Windows Update does its job. 26052 Took 8 hours. 26058 did it dramatically faster.
Have a good luck.
And, of course, since we're now in 24H2 (read Windows 12 embryo) if you're in DEV, you may decide to switch to Canary. All DEV tools are in Canary, too.
