My mistake on the NAS, I was thinking of the additional support for file systems.
Macrium Software | Reflect v8
New in Version 8 0 - Knowledgebase 8.0 - Macrium Reflect Knowledgebase
After the restore, reagentc /info and Disk Manager show my Recovery partition to be at the end of my system disk. I'm declaring victory. Many thanks to @fdegrove who gave the original solution that turned out to be the only workable one, and to @NavyLCDR, @f14tomcat, @Wannagofast and others who made many helpful additional contributions.
I'm leaving my Recovery partition at 529 MB for now. If I get another WU error 0x800f0922, I'll try enlarging the Recovery partition manually. However, from what I've learned here, I think that the error 0x800f0922 is a thing of the past for this system, thanks to you people.
Hi,
Glad to see it all went well.
Hopefully that error will be a thing of the past. Normally WU will handle the size of that partition since it now can do that.
Cheers,
Hello @Motorfingers,
Just for information. It is always good practice toVerify
theImage
. This way, if something is wrong, it will show up at the time, allowing you to immediately remedy the situation, rather than having the need to use it and then find out there is a problem. It is also piece of mind.
I hope this helps.
The restore took 3 hours and 12 minutes, which seems to be reasonable, with Verify. No problems seen. It booted just fine, and SFC and DISM gave the system a clean bill of health. Disk Manager shows the Recovery partition where it should be, so I don't need to revise any pointers. I had my Recovery thumb drive ready to Repair Boot but, of course, that wasn't needed. ragentc /info says that Windows RE is enabled and gives the proper location for it, in the Recovery partition.
WU failed for the new KB5005101, hanging on reboot with the same black screen, the recirculating ball bearing and message "Updating your system 100%" near the bottom. Powered down, reboot failed, repeated and boot succeeded. The Update History did not show the failed update or an error message. I downloaded the update for KB5005101 and installed it locally with no problem. Clicked "Check for Updates" to clear the message to download and install KB5005101. WU Repair Wizard says that it finds nothing wrong. Everything cool. I plan to continue as-is and see if continuing updates and WaasMedic fix the rough edges. Windows 11 is coming, and if it uses the same system partitions as what I have now, perhaps it will have differences that will bury my residual problem with WU live.
