[SOLVED] Cannot update from 1803 to 1903

suprteacher · Nov 8, 2019

Hi all-
I've been looking through all kinds of posts and cannot figure out how to update my Windows 10 from 1803 to 1903. I wouldn't have even noticed, but according to Windows Update, 1803 is not going to be supported. When Windows Update checks for updates, I get that everything is up to date. I've tried every solution I've found on the web. I cannot even reset without getting an error.
I tried updating using the Windows Creation disk iso, but again didn't work.
I cannot run dism scan health without getting error 4448: The WOF driver encountered a corruption in the compressed file's Resource Table.
Sfc /scannow stops in the Verification phase with error- Windows Resource Protection could not perform the requested operation.

Any help will be greatly appreciated.

Hello and welcome!

GSmartControl
Follow the instructions below to check your SMART status with GSmartControl:

Download the portable version of GSmartControl and save it on your Desktop;
Extract the zip file to your Desktop. Open the folder gsmartcontrol-1.1.3-win64 which should be located on your Desktop and double-click gsmartcontrol.exe to launch the program.
Identify your drive in the list (if recognized by the tool), and hover your mouse over it.
You should see something called: SMART status. It will either read: Enabled, in which case you should do the following:
Double-click on it to bring up its window (usually you'll find your drive by its size or its brand name);
Go to the Self-Tests tab, then select Extended Self-test in the Test type drop-down list and click on Execute (this test can take a few hours to complete);
Once the test is over, the results will be displayed at the bottom of the window. Please copy and paste these results in your next reply or take a screenshot;
Also, go in the Attributes tab and if you have any entries highlighted in red or pink, take a screenshot of the GSmartControl window and attach it in your next reply;
Please note: If the SMART Status reads: Unsupported, stop and let me know.

Thank you for the help. Here are the results and attributes.

I did notice that my SSD system drive says Automatic Offline Data Collection status: DISABLED, whereas my other hard drive has this enabled. Not sure if that's a big deal or not.

One other note, when I originally went to update it showed my C drive as compressed and wouldn't let me update until the drive was uncompressed. This is when I started having the troubles.

softwaremaniac · Nov 8, 2019

I would urge you to IMMEDIATELY backup the SSD and replace it as it started to fail and caused the issue.

suprteacher · Nov 8, 2019

I've been backing up using Macrium Reflect.

I have nothing else that is showing me that this drive is failing. The drive isn't that old.

softwaremaniac · Nov 8, 2019

One parameter is more than enough.

suprteacher · Nov 8, 2019

I appreciate your help. Is there anything else I can do at the moment to be able to update? If I do a wipe of the drive and a clean install of Windows, how would I reinstall the programs using my Macrium backup?

softwaremaniac · Nov 8, 2019

I can, but I would genuinely advise against it.

If the image is stored on a different drive, you can recover it via Macrium Boot CD.

Rescue a system with the Windows PE environment

If you are adamant to try and fix this, please do the following:

SFC Scan

Click on the Start button and in the search box, type Command Prompt
When you see Command Prompt on the list, right-click on it and select Run as administrator
When command prompt opens, copy and paste the following commands into it, press enter after each

sfc /scannow

Wait for this to finish before you continue

copy %windir%\logs\cbs\cbs.log "%userprofile%\Desktop\cbs.txt"
This will create a file, cbs.txt on your Desktop. Please attach this to your next post.

suprteacher · Nov 8, 2019

I would like to fix this. I realize the drive may be on its way to failing, but think there is also some file errors that hopefully I can fix.

The one worry I have about my current backup through Macrium is if there are file errors, those will be pushed to the new drive when recovering. I'd like to be able to fix these and when the drive does fail, I know my backup is going to be error free.

Again I do appreciate all the help you're giving me.

Once again, my sfc /scannow verification got to 98% before giving me the Windows Resource Protection could not perform the requested operation.
I have attached the cbs.txt file

I'm now waiting for the sfc /scannow to complete

suprteacher · Nov 8, 2019

Here's my new cbs.txt file. Again sfc /scannow verification 100%, but Windows Resource Protection found corrupt files but was unable to fix some of them

cbs1.txt

softwaremaniac · Nov 8, 2019

Unfortunately, the corrupt file is located on the bad section of the SSD and is inaccessible.

We can run this for verification purposes: How to Fix Hard Drive Problems with Chkdsk in Windows 7, 8, and 10

suprteacher · Nov 8, 2019

After running chkdsk here's what I received.

softwaremaniac · Nov 8, 2019

Yes, please replace the SSD. I'd say it's really on its way out. I'm sorry.

On the up side, if you got it recently, maybe it's still under warranty.
