    Thank you for such a comprehensive guide. However, I am still unable to install Windows 10 1308 or 1903. I have tried all Methods except Method 9. I don't see why I would have to do a fresh install just for an upgrade.

    On Method 8 using the WSUS client, Step 8. Place a check at "Automatic reboot and recall" checkbox that option is grayed out and not available. How can I get that enabled?

    Also, any advice you may have for me with regards to upgrading Windows 10 pro would be appreciated. When the Windows updater runs it just loops (downloads, restarts, and begins downloading the same 1308 again utilizing RAM) Prior to all the mentioned Methods, I got all kinds of error codes from 0xc800704c7, 0xc1900130 and Windows is no longer crashing. The WSUS client says there are no missing updates found yet I am still running Windows Pro version 1709 and it downloaded and verified 33 updates.

    Any advice is appreciated. Thanks in advance!

      @Genevieve: Have you applied all the recommendations before applying the methods? Also you have tried the repair upgrade of Win10.?

    Nicr tut, I think most users could be helped. But…
    Today (jun 12 2019) at 13:05 mu pc with windows 10 Pro N asked me to restart to run the updare. It is 18:05 now, screen is still black, occasionally it shows the cursor with the spinning wheel amd that's it.
    I run a 'dual boot' (in bootrec). As long as I cannot get into my W10pN, there is nothing I can do.
    I do have the option at boot to switch to PE mode, but restore to a previous situation, e.g. Before installing something yesterday, but that does not work.
    What options do I have?

      @Harry Betlem: Have you tried to boot your PC from a Windows installation media and then to restore it?

    Eureka! The Reset PC feature in Windows solved the following error I kept getting when trying to update my computer to Windows 10 version 1709: "could not reconfigure one or more windows components" – Thank you.
