 Hey Shane,

My Windows update has been failing for a long while. This latest update (Fall Creators Update) has multiple errors starting with "We couldn't update the system reserved partition" -and- "This PC can't run Windows 10".

There are a number of Google links for your error, but this looks the most authoritative - https://support.microsoft.com/en-gb/help/3086249/we-couldn-t-update-system-reserved-partition-error-installing-windows

Take care before entering the commands as the article advises, but if you aren't sure then I would suggest that you take the machine into a repair shop.

Hey Boggin,
I have tried that exact method you suggested. Still same issue. I don't understand why this thing refuses to update.

Boggin:
What other errors are you getting ?

Boggin:
On Page #2 of this article, there's a guy who managed to fix this problem by using a 3rd party program to increase the size of his reserved drive.
