Windows 10 not updating from 1909 to 22H2

Follow up on not being able to update to Windows 10 22H2 from 1909.
I have gone through all the suggestions. Update assistant ,Media creation tool,Update troubleshooter , resetting windows update components and still get the error: initiation failed during First-Boot phase at Migrate-Data.
USB bootable disk also did not succeed. I have disabled all periferals , ran fksdsk, restore health, checked that all drivers are up to date etc.. and still get the same error.
Error messages from windows logs : Error Essent 455 Loggin/Recovery. Error Security center 17 None. Error Application error 1000 Application crashing Events. Error Security-SPP 16385 None. These occur multiple times in the log file.
I also disabled Firewall and anti virus software, all to no avail.
Any idea what else I might try ?

Long Boot time and black screen while booting

I have a ACER Nitro 5 laptop (windows 10 home original), mainly for entry level gaming. I am using laptop/desktop from last 12 years and I have moderate knoweldge on S/w issues, how to keep the laptop fast (by defragmenting, registry cleaning etc.). Recently I am facing Boot issues thats getting frustrating. Initially it started with long booting time, it was taking 7-10 minutes to reach to user account (Pin), and during that time the CPU and GPU fan speed was getting super fast (like during heavy usage).
Now from last couple of days, once I switch the laptop on, no display is coming, its just a black screen. However, CPU light was on, Key-board backlit was on and fan was rotating, but no display. If I wait the also nothing happening. Every time I need to force shut down it (by long pressing) and then if I restart again, its getting started properly.

Not sure what's the issue. I have checked prgrams that starts while booting, no issue there. No external device was attaching with my laptop while booting. stopped windown fast boot service also. But no progress.

Please suggest. can it be my HDD (1 TB I have) getting damaged? suggest if any other reason might be there.

computer restarting randomly

hello, i've been having an issue with my computer restarting whenever it likes to. i'm not sure what's wrong. i've troubleshooted the ram by removing half and running, and then the other half but that didn't work. i do not have an over heating problem, nor dust build up on cpu.

Windows Live data removed by BoostSpeed scan

Hi, I ran my first scan yesterday which was fine but now the content in my Windows Live 2012 set-up has been removed - specifically I have lost the folders, and their contents, I set up in my inbox, and I now have only emails in my inbox from the 18.06.2021. Everything else has gone. How can I get it back to where I was yesterday?

Inacessible Boot Device bluescreen after using Driver Updater

Hi there,

Just installed my Driver Updater on my new PC and after updating the drivers and a required restart I get a Bluescreen with the message "Inacessible Boot Device" adn restarting does not help, nor does turning the desktop off and on again.

What to do now?

Christoph

PS: The "Device" above is probably incorrect as I'm writing this from my laptop.

Disk Defrag Ultimate vs BoostSpeed built in defrag tool

I have Boostspeed 12.

Is there any benefit in having Defrag Ultimate? Boostspeed 12 includes defrag. Can Defrag Ultimate do anything the defrag in Boostspeed can't do?

Is Defrag Ultimate only intended to be used with Boostspeed 11, and earlier versions of Boostspeed?

Thank you.

Cannot create New Folders

After the New Folder option that is usually available after right clicking is somehow gone or disabled, is it possible to regain the ability to create new folders with this PC that I'm using without having to rely on copying existing folders or giving myself blank ones from another PC?
