Lucky you!

Some of us would kill to get rid of that mess they call Dark Explorer!

Honestly, it's not very impressive.

Totally agree with this. I hope there's an option to bring back the unthemed windows explorer.

Time for a clean install.

Clean Install Windows 10 | Windows 10 Tutorials

How do I clean install without the same issue come up again? How do I ensure that the install is set to UEFI?

Windows upgrade failure may display one problem and then when that problem is fixed it may display another problem.
This Microsoft software may be able to find multiple problems and list them.

You can perform clean install as Brink recommends and may be able to find out more about the failure.

This is weird. One on page of the settings it says I've been updated to 1809. But then on another page it says I'm still on 1803. Here are my images stating this:





Ok heres my setupdiag results.

Here you go:

What happened when you boot using Legacy or UEFI hybrid with CSM?
Disk management displayed information for a MBR/BIOS boot, not GPT/UEFI boot.

Open administrative command prompt and type or copy and paste:

Code:

diskpart
list disk
list volume
select disk 0
detail disk
list partition
select partition 1
detail partition
select partition 2
detail partition
select partition 3
detail partition
select partition 4
detail partition
exit

I ran the commands. Theyre all healthy partitions. But theres no partition 4 available. It says, "The specified partition is not valid." What do you suggest??
