Can't apply update to Windows 10 - error 0xC1900200

Question

I've been running Wndows 10 for a while. When it tries to update to Windows 10 Pro, version 1511, 10586, I get the following in the event log:

Installation Failure: Windows failed to install the following update with error 0xC1900200: Upgrade to Windows 10 Pro, version 1511, 10586.

My research shows this error says something is incompatible so I can't upgrade, however I'm already running Windows 10.

Do you have any ideas?

Solution

Found this was tied to this KB article. Turns out there was not enough space on the reserved partition. So, I expanded the partition with this tool to 350mb, restarted and applied the update. It worked after that.

Did you make any hardware or bios changes after the original install of w10?

No hardware or bios changes other than a USB device (Hauppauge 955Q)

share the folder C:\$Windows.~BT\Sources\panther on onedrive, so that can see what fails .

windows can't find the file NewSystem.dat: Cannot resurrect new system.: Win32Exception: \\?\C:\$Windows.~BT\Sources\NewSystem.dat: The system cannot find the file specified.

Looked around and didn't see any solid fixes. Any ideas?

[magicandre1981]

I've asked Microsoft for help and will reply if I get an answer.

[magicandre1981]

Microsoft needs again all data. make sure really ALL logs/data from C:\$WINDOWS.~BT\Sources\Panther are included in your zip

[asp316]

Thanks! I zipped all files and u/led them here so I'm sure they're all there: onedrive.live.com/…

[magicandre1981]

oik, I send the link to MS. If I get an answer, I'll reply here again.

That didn't work for me. My System Reserved partition was nearly full (100MB left from 500MB), so I formatted it, now it's empty and I get the error anyway.
