Before performing the in place upgrade please perform the following steps:

1) Uninstall any of these non-Microsoft software using the applicable uninstall tool:
a) antivirus
b) firewall
c) drive encryption

2) Disconnect non-essential hardware:
(only have attached one monitor, mouse, and keyboard)
(disconnect all non-windows drives)

3) Place the computer into clean boot:

4) Perform the in place upgrade repair without connecting to the internet (use the Windows 10 iso on a bootable Media Creation Tool (MCT))

Hi @MAHINC Christophe

Try the following in cmd prompt (Run As Adminstrator):

1) DISM /Online /Cleanup-Image /RestoreHealth

2) sfc /scannow

After the commands have been completed, try updating Windows 10.
