Windows Update keeps attempting to install an update but it keeps failing, 

 

The update that is trying to download is: Upgrade to Windows 10 Pro, version 1511, 10586.

 

When the running the troubleshooter a message saying windows 10 couldn't be installed. Under that message it states "We couldn't update the system reserved partition" 

 

I have 301 GB free on my SSD, which contains my OS, so there is more than enough space to download the update.  

 

Any solutions would be greatly appreciated, thanks!

Have you tried turning it off and on again? No seriously, that might be a potential fix, i had issues one time, and after a quick reset, it worked!

There's no option for windows 10, but i guess you'd have to follow the 8.1 since its the latest one on the list. 

 

Is there any way to do this without messing around in such important files?
