    It is easy to fix. Increase the size of the Recovery Partition to 1000 MB

    Don't think thats gonna work with My Gaming Laptop, only have 524MB to use, tried resizing to 1000 didn't work, unless i'm doing something wrong, so can't expand it on the Laptop machine

    Did the Manual fix on The Info page for this update, and that succeeded and Update Installed, now later just finish on 3rd Household Windows 10 PC hopefully without any RL interruptions or distractions to get it fixed on that one. but glad fixed on Laptop now--may do the fix for 3rd PC very early in the morning when no one up bothering me
