I have a non interneted windows 10 workstation it cannot have internet access based on the sensitivity of the information. I try and do an update to 21H2 by downloading the ISO and mounting it and running it. This all works until the end of the install after 100% it fails, I’ve attempted this three time with the same results, any advise on this.
thx

Hi @jadado,

Have you every updated this Windows 10 computer? Or better still, when was the last time you updated the PC with the ISO method?

Yesterday 07/01.23 I ran up a pc I’ve kept as a standby having just replaced the main pc after the previous one failed with a motherboard problem.
This standby pc was working OK and must have been running 21h2 OK as it hasn’t been run for at least a year. While adding a few extras I accidentally accepted 22h2 update and the machine will now only boot as far as the HP splash screen… then to a black screen with a blinking cursor.
So the question is, is it possible to download the media creation tool to a usb stick and get 21h2… All my attempts have failed as MS only now seem to offer 22h2.
BTW… the cd/dvd rom drive is not showing in the bios boot order list.
