I WILL BE ATTEMPTING THIS TONGIHT AS WELL. MY QUESTION IS..... WHY AM I HAVING TO DO ALL THIS WITH A BRAND NEW ALIENWARE M16 OUT OF THE BOX (RECIEVED THE COMPUTER ON 12/10/2024) . SHOULD I SEND THE COMPUTER BACK, CALL SUPPORT, OR JUST DO THIS PROCEDURE YOU HAVE OUTLINED?
The update (2024-12 Cumulative Update for Windows 11 Version 23H2 for x64-based Systems (KB5048685)) won’t install and I do not know why.
Whenever I try to update it, it gets to 25% and then fails and I don’t know how to fix it
Windows for home | Windows 11 | Windows update

I have gone through the entire thread. I'd like to know if you're able to start Windows normally.
If you can't load Windows, the best option would be to clean install Windows using USB.
On the other hand, if you can start Windows normally, an in-place upgrade should fix the issues.
Let me know.
