Windows 11 Update Failed, then Windows Update failed
I was just offered the opportunity to upgrade to Windows 11 in the Release Preview Channel. I gladly accepted the offer. The upgrade downloaded, then installed (seemingly 100%), and then rebooted. Wi...

Cannot install Windows 11 - Error 0xc1900101 - Microsoft Community
after you install it and it downloads and reboots, it comes up as windows 10, then you should go to settings and update and select check for update, then a windows 11 build will download from the updates and install as normal. Also check to make sure that your dev tools are turned on. To do this go to settings and then find the allow remote connection from computers on my network and the allow usb connections option. Toggle those on and you should get a message stating windows is downloading additional tools.

I have tried back-to-back installs of the Windows 11 upgrade (Upgrade indicates it is being installed and getting Windows ready, but no change is actually occurring) several times. I did't have developer mode turned on - just did that and toggled the USB switch as you suggested, and am trying to upgrade again now. Will let everyone know how it goes. BTW, every time it has to re-download the upgrade. Wouldn't it save time if the download was done just the first time (not every time)?
- I believe I understand you correctly but just so I understand you have gone to the insiders tab downloaded it, rebooted, then gone to the windows update , run the update check , and windows will download a windows 11 update ...
