    Hi, good day!

    I recommend performing a repair installation via Settings or using the ISO should fix the CBS error 0x800f0983.

    Open Settings > System > Recovery.

    Few things to check on the PC

    • Unplug all external peripherals except for the Mouse, Keyboard, and LAN cable before starting
    • Disable or uninstall any third-party Antivirus program to prevent it from interfering with the upgrade

    Under Fix problems using Windows Update, click Reinstall Now

    Once completed, your system will restart.

    Alternatively, you can use the Windows 11 ISO by following the steps in the link below.
