In-Place Upgrade fails with message "not enough disk space"
Hi there!
First of all thanks for the great toturial and the forum.
I tried to do the in-place upgrade from Windows 10 (build 1607) in order to "repair" my system (there are some quirks I want to get rid off) using a freshly created USB (as per description), but it fails with the message "make sure that there is enough disk space available in your PC" (rough translation from german; see attached screenshot) without any further information.
It then automatically cycles back to the question on how to install (i.e. with keeping data and apps or without) and then back into the above mentioned error message.
This is what I already tried or made sure of prerequisites needed:
- I have made sure that there is definitely enough disk space available.
- My C: partition (where windows resides on) is 106 GB large and has currently over 58 GB of free space available.
- The system partition that is supposed to be 350 MB is still 350 MB (I read something about this potentially being reduced to 100 MB by other tools ...).
- I have deinstalled the Kaspersky anti virus tool (reinstalled it now after several tries with no success).
- I have disabled (i.e. fully decrypted) the disk encryption bitlocker on all disks.
My partitions (as seen from "Mini Tool Partition Wizard" and "Disk Manager"):
Do you have any ideas on what else could be wrong?
What intrigues me most is the fact that there is no further information in the error message on what or where is missing regarding disk space...
Thanks in advance for your help!!!
