Hello All

Hope You All Are Doing Great..


So I Was Having Problems With The Windows Update, Searched On Internet But Didn’t Find Any Usable Results; So I Decided To Do An In-Place Upgrade> Downloaded MCT>Got A Fresh Copy Of Windows Iso…

But



When I Started The Setup, It Showed That The “Keep Personal Files, Apps And Settings” Is Greyed Out, And The “Keep Personal Files Option” Is Greyed Out Too..


So I Was Left With Just Nothing Option But Had A Whooping 50 Gb Off Photos,Videos And Docs On My Pc And No One Would Like To Ever Wipe Of Them..


And The Reason Was That “Your Files, Apps, And Settings Can’t Be Kept Because Your Current Version Of Windows Might Be Installed In An Unsupported Directory Or You’re Trying To Install An Older Version Of Windows.”

Again Searched Internet And Found About The Registry And Directories But My PC Was Good In The Registry…

So I Found That This Is A Bug With Windows 10 Version 19042 At This Site: [Fix] Can't Repair Install Windows 10 20H2 - Your Windows Guide



So Should I Make The Changes Because The Site States That “Important: The Fix Is Only Applicable To Windows 10 Version 20H2 Build 19042. Doing This On Other Releases May Lead To PC In An Unbootable State.”


Any Suggestion Or Fix Will Be Really Helpful
