I try to perform an in-place upgrade of Windows and I receive the following error
0x080070003 - 0x3000D The installation failed in the FIRST_BOOT phase with an error during MIGRATE_DATA operation
I have tried plenty of different suggestions to no avail. Everytime the update stops and undoes the changes.
What I did so far:
- Stopped antivirus
- Disabled graphics card
- Deleted SoftwareDistribution folder for Windows Updates
- I did leave more than 30GB space
- Used a USB instead of mounting the image
- Cleared registry from user entries other than one user
This whole story started because the system won't update to 20H2 version (update constantly fails), and in the steps suggested I have noticed that the sfc /scannow does not finish. Stops at 72% with the error
Windows Resource Protection could not perform the requested operation.
but I am hopeful that if I do an in-place upgrade, I can overcome this issue.
Any help to either direction would be a lifesaver.
