    I'm fairly nervous to run the partion script, I believe these are good instructions to do so?

    But I'm worried if it fails what mess might I end up in.


    Thus I think maybe the wushowhide route is more appealing.

    Are there any concerns to not do that?

    In some ways I'd be happier to follow Bree's older steps KB5034441 Security Update for Windows 10 (21H2 and 22H2) - Jan. 9 with minitools... But still a bit apprehensive!

    You likely don't need KB5034441 unless you use BitLocker Drive Encryption. Check whether you're using it in CONTROL PANEL. You can just disable it.

    Then use SHOW/HIDE from Microsoft to hide KB5034441. It works well and will eliminate your fears and concerns.

    don't run the MS script - it's NOT worth it if you don't know what you're doing

    hide or block the KB5034441 update with wushowhide.diagcab indefinitely until MS decides one day to no longer offer it

    You don't have to hide or block something. Just close your eyes und you will be astonished. You will not see it, because it's not there.
    If you have some basic knowledge about partitions and the sfc-scan is not the only command you are able to execute, you can solve it in less than 5 minutes. And that is a fact.

    I messed around unsuccessfully with command prompt and minitool wizard, apparently I failed to follow the clear step by step directions to the letter. Then I hid the update. Then I changed it to unhide or show it. The failed update continued appearing for a couple days and then disappeared.

    My desktop PC is almost six years old and it's still running 10. I hope to buy a new desktop and then make the move to 11 at some point this year. Apart from the occasional Windows update hiccups, it's still running fine. Last week it went to a black screen for a long time after a Windows update and I had to force restart a bunch of times. I don't want to wait until it goes to black permanently to finally buy a new PC.

    I know that the internet is full of wrong instructions. To solve the problem a screenshot of "Diskmanagement" is needed.

    I've got quite well practised at sorting this one out. My process:

    • turn off recovery with reagentc /disable
    • Use Disk Management to shrink C: enough to allow the recovery partition to be enlarged to at least 800MB.
    • Use Minitools Partition Wizard to enlarge the recovery partition.
    • restart the PC. This is essential so that the OS knows the new start point of the recovery partition.
    • turn on recovery with reagentc /enable
    • In Windows Update retry installing KB5034441
    Has anybody tried

    reagentc /disable
    then mount winre.wim
    use dism to install the cab
    https://www.catalog.update.microsoft...px?q=Safe%20OS
    unmount commit
    reagentc /enable

    could optimize/export the wim to make it a bit smaller if desired

    the updated winre.wim might not be much bigger than the original. If it is too big, then use a 3rd party tool to expand the recov partition before reagentc /enable.

    It seems quite sensible to have a big recov partition anyway, about 1gb perhaps to avoid faffling in future.

    That sounds like a windows issue, not an issue with the machine.

    If your dell xps is 8th gen or newer, it is a decent machine and it should run win11 fine

    those dell things sometimes come with only one stick of ram and often a basic disk. So they can be improved for little cost.

    If it is an old 4th gen or similar, then it might be time to think about getting something more recent.
