Could you please run SetupDiag and then provide the files?

Using SetupDiag​

To quickly use SetupDiag on your current computer:

1. Verify that your system meets the requirements described below. If needed, install the .NET framework 4.6.
2. Download SetupDiag.
3. If your web browser asks what to do with the file, choose Save. By default, the file will be saved to your Downloads folder. You can also save it to a different location if desired by using Save As.
4. When SetupDiag has finished downloading, open the folder where you downloaded the file. By default, this folder is the Downloads folder, which is displayed in File Explorer under Quick access in the left navigation pane.
5. Double-click the SetupDiag file to run it. Click Yesif you are asked to approve running the program.
   • Double-clicking the file to run it will automatically close the command window when SetupDiag has completed its analysis. If you wish to keep this window open instead, and review the messages that you see, run the program by typing SetupDiag at the command prompt instead of double-clicking it. You will need to change directories to the location of SetupDiag to run it this way.
6. A command window will open while SetupDiag diagnoses your computer. Wait for this process to finish.
7. When SetupDiag finishes, two files will be created in the same folder where you double-clicked SetupDiag. One is a configuration file, the other is a log file.
8. Use Notepad to open the log file: SetupDiagResults.log.
9. Review the information that is displayed. If a rule was matched, this information can tell you why the computer failed to upgrade, and potentially how to fix the problem. See the Text log sample below.
