I tried installing Windows 11 downloading the ISO image and creating a usb unit but it fails at the end with the error: Error Code: 0xC1900101 0x40021 The installation failed in the SECOND_BOOT phase with an error during SYSPREP_RESPECIALIZE operation I don't know what else can I do.

I've tried installing using the other methods.
Check for updates Menu in Settings- It displays "Great news—your PC meets the minimum system requirements for Windows 11."
Windows Installation Assistant - It does the entire process of downloading and installing Windows 11 and ultimately reboots into WIndows 10. Also, the pc is fully compatible in the pc Health Check WIndows 11 requirements.

Please uninstall 'Recentral' from AverMedia and try rerunning Setup. This app seems to be responsible for the crash.
