Update Operation Fatal Error when installing Technical Preview Build 10041 Upgrade

I posted this in the Microsoft Community forums and was redirected here.
Below is the original post (URL: http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/insider/forum/insider_wintp-insider_install/update-operation-fatal-error-when-installing/6eaff1b9-0223-4357-afc8-884382590e82 )
Hello,
In trying to perform an upgrade install of the Windows 10 Technical Preview Build 10041 (as is the latest available for direct download as of my writing), I am running into a problem I cannot find mention of anywhere else on the web.
I fall into two categories with regards to this build: A) Product tester who actually needs to test application performance under Windows 10 on bare metal, B) Semi-crazy techie who loves using (usable) beta software as his primary environment ;)
so it is rather important to me that I get this working on my machine in some non-virtualized respect. I am reluctant to do a full/fresh install if installation problems are happening, because my Windows 8 product key has been f***ed up from the
start (likely some random database corruption) and I've had to utilize phone support to get around an "unknown error" the last two times I've had to use it. So, for fear of that key completely crapping out on me, I don't want to move to Win10 unless
I'm confident it will install and I can stick with it (for better or worse) through the end. Problems within the Preview after I install it I can deal with.
So, I first tried to install the Preview through the standard Windows Update method. The installer took about 7 hours (but from reading lots of internet discussions, stupidly long install times in that range seem to be a common problem with
this builds separate from it actually failing). During the reboot between the "Setting up Devices" (Or is it Setting up Drivers? I forget) and "Taking Care of a Few More Things" (Again, possibly paraphrased), for about a split second, underneath
the Windows logo and throbber, some error like this appeared:
Fatal Error Performing Update Operation # of ##: ERROR CODE
It only appeared for a fraction of a second, and I had no chance of reading the precise numbers or error.
However, the installer then seemed to continue, and went until the main circle was at 100%. As soon as 100% hit, however, the screen went black for something like 30min. Then, I briefly saw "Attempting to recover installation" before "Restoring
your previous version of Windows." And I was, quite impressively considering how far along that installer was, back in Windows 8.1 completely unharmed.
I tried again by burning an ISO and doing a disc upgrade install. I let that one run overnight and was asleep for the error, but I was back in Win8.1 in the morning, so I can only assume a similar thing happened there.
As for my system specs, I'm running on a MacBook Pro 9,1 under Boot Camp. I am upgrading from Windows 8.1.2 Pro with Media Center. I have found other online accounts of people quite successfully installing Windows 10 on Macs, so that isn't the issue.
Does anyone have any clue as to what this error might have been/be, and how I might fix it? Or at least have it on good authority that a fresh installation would be unaffected (meaning it's software-related)? If not, I can try installing to a VHD,
which would at least let me product test on bare metal, but wouldn't have the harddrive space to be my daily driver and would probably only get used occasionally.
Thanks in advance to anyone who can help!
So far, I have the yet-to-be-tried idea of a clean boot prior to installation.
If anyone here has any more specific ideas, lemme hear 'em.
Thanks!

To the individual who proposed this as an answer to my problem: It's not even applicable. I specifically stated that I was trying to avoid doing a clean installation (at least without knowing more about the problem at hand). An answer saying to do the thing
you're trying to avoid doing is not an answer. You can see my last reply for the current status of this issue. 6-8 hour blocks of time in which I can't use my computer (as is required to install build 10041) aren't super common for me, but I haven't abandoned
this thread. There have simply been no more updates. If your motivation as a mod was that you simply don't like there being unanswered threads on this forum, then perhaps you could attempt to contribute rather than arbitrarily marking the first reply as an
answer.
I will continue to update this thread as I try new things and get more information.
Thank you.

Fatal Error when installing LabView 8.5

I encounter a fatal error when I attempt to install LabView 8.5. The error that occurs has the following in its details:

No hardware is connected in my computer.
I copied the files from the DVD to my harddrive and am still failing to install it from there.
The disc should be fine as my supervisor had used the same disc to install on his computer. ( our licence allows this )
Any help would be appreciated.

Dell Bluetooth 365 not detected in Windows 10 Technical Preview (Builds 10041 and 10049)

When I installed Windows 10 build 10041 on my 2009 Dell Inspiron 1545 laptop my Bluetooth 365 stopped working. On investigation I saw that Bluetooth had disappeared from Device Manager completely, but no yellow '!' was apparent anywhere. When I checked the BIOS the Bluetooth card was present. I researched the issue for a couple of hours and realised that Dell did not have a Bluetooth 365 driver for anything later than Windows 7. (That Windows 7 driver had worked in Win 8/Win 8.1). I discovered that the card is made by Broadcomm and is also used by Lenovo in some of its laptops. I downloaded the following driver from Lenovo's support site and installed it. When prompted, click the 'update software' button, and a further installation will run. If you wish, have Device Manager open and you will see the drivers and devices install.
support.lenovo.com/.../ds031759
It worked perfectly and my Bluetooth card was detected and configured and now all my Bluetooth devices work with Windows 10.
The Dell 1545 with Bluetooth is a great workhorse PC and it would have been a shame if it could not have been used with Windows 10. I hope it is not a sign of forced obsolescence by Dell, and that they will release Win 10 drivers for this venerable old laptop. It is a shame to have to go to a competitor for a driver. Judging by my web research there are many of this model still in everyday use. I trust this will be of use to other users.

There is a universal Broadcom Bluetooth Update which would cover this also:

Why the Fatal Error when trying to preview or edit audio in Cp 8?

I installed Cp 8 last week. (Been using Cp 3 for years, finally made the leap). Made a presentation on Cp 8 just fine -- everything worked wonderfully. Preview ... audio edits ... everything was fine.
This week I'm working on another presentation and suddenly the program goes into a fatal error EVERY TIME I try to preview it.
So --- I continued creating my presentation without previewing anything, and then recorded audio for the project. But when I went to edit the audio, BAM - another fatal error.
This is not good. :-)
Anyone else have this problem? Any known solutions?

Sorry -- not much geek in my blood, so I forget to provide that info. :-)
OS: Win 7
The program is installed on my desktop, and there is no network. It's only my computer.
Yes, there is PLENTY of space.
I downloaded the program last week with the help of Adobe Tech support, because the program would not install. An error kept appearing saying it was missing a file. Spent 7 hours on Christmas Eve working with tech support in New Delhi, 1.5 hours of which was on the phone with the tech support having remote control of my computer. We finally figured out that AVG was preventing the install, so we deactivated AVG and then the program installed just fine.
As I said, I've been using Cp 3 for YEARS, so I'm familiar with what Cp is capable of doing. I created a project two days after Christmas and everything worked just find. Was able to preview anytime I wanted, and had no problem editing my audio.
Then without making any other changes to my computer's configuration, two days ago I was working on another presentation and went to preview the slide. The program reached 58% and then gave a fatal error, forcing shutdown. I thought I might be a hiccup, so I closed everything down and rebooted the computer, but still the same problem every time I tried to preview. I had half a dozen attempts, and each time a fatal error, always at the place where it says 58% complete (for the preview).
So --- I went ahead and completed the slide layouts without previewing anything, and figured I would add the audio, edit it, and publish the presentation. I recorded the audio (my voice) just fine, but when I tried to edit it (audio > edit > project), the system experienced a fatal error, again at the 58% mark of preparation.
My presentations are saved and backed up ... I've been thinking that I need to uninstall / reinstall the program, but after spending 7 hours doing that on Christmas Eve, I was hoping there might be an alternative solution.

Fatal error when installing Bootcamp

I am having trouble with installing bootcamp.
I have installed windows xp 32bit, and about midway the installation of the bootcamp drivers/applet, I get a windows fatal error:
STOP: c000021a {Fatal System Error}
The Windows SubSystem process terminated unexpectedly with a status of 0xc0000005 (0x7c9101b3 0x0052f29c).
The system has been shut down.
Beinning dump of physical memory
physical memory dump complete.
Contact your system administrator or technical support group for further assistance.
Anyone have any ideas why this is happening and how to fix it?
Thanks,
Gil
P.S.
Seems like the error comes right after it tried to install the sigmatel drivers...

I am having the same exact problem. The bootcamp install crashes at the same point as yours, and the "try it three times" does not work for me.
I had bootcamp installed on my 27" iMac i7; however, I could not install Microsoft Office 2007 or Wordperfect without removing bootcamp. Now I cannot get it to install again.
Manually updating the drivers using the disk works fine, except I still cannot get my printer to work because of this. It claims there is no USB hardware/drivers, even though all my other USB peripherals work just fine!
If anyone has a fix, please let me know.

Fatal error when installing on "existing" m/w home

Hi,
I am trying to install Jdeveloper 11.1.1.5.0 using an existing middleware home (WLS 10.3.5). But it results into a fatal error. Precisely, the question is why jdeveloper installer tries to install WLS again even if I clearly instruct to "use existing middleware home"?
As a workaround, I installed it with "create a new middleware home" instruction and it worked, but still the question remains that why it attempts to install WLS if it is already existing and instructed to use the existing one.

Not sure if I read it in the release notes (check yourself) but the WLS which comes with jdev is wired up for adf usage already. And the WLS should not use for any other task then development.
The installation of jdev always should go into a new home.

VS2013 not running in debug mode on Windows 10 Technical Preview Build 10041

am getting the following errors every time i try to run my projects in debug mode what can be the issue.
Managed Debugging Assistant 'FatalExecutionEngineError' has detected a problem in 'C:\Program Files (x86)\IIS Express\iisexpress.exe'.
Additional information: The runtime has encountered a fatal error. The address of the error was at 0x73c0d5a5, on thread 0x1a0c. The error code is 0xc0000005. This error may be a bug in the CLR or in the unsafe or non-verifiable portions of user
code. Common sources of this bug include user marshaling errors for COM-interop or PInvoke, which may corrupt the stack.
Then when I continue the following appears
An unhandled exception of type 'System.AccessViolationException' occurred in System.Data.dll
Additional information: Attempted to read or write protected memory. This is often an indication that other memory is corrupt.
Then it stops..
This happens when a database call is made and only does this when debug, when I run it using the browser link all is good. The applications work well.

According to my solution, what about your issue now?
If you have been solved the issue, would you mind sharing us the solution here? So it would be helpful for other members who get the same issue.
If not, please let us know the latest information about it.
@Malik, could you please tell me if you try to check your issue by the above suggestion as I said?
If no, please try the above suggestions to check this issue and then tell me the latest message about this issue.
>>The error mostly occurs when debugging ADO.NET or database function calls. If code is run without debugging then there is no issue at all.
You could also try to copy your project and then debug your project in debug mode on a another machine you install same Windows 10 OS check this issue again.

Fatal error when installing master collection "[FATAL] Setup - Error installing C:\Users\Desktop\MasterCollection_CS6_LS6\packages\core\PDApp.pimx package. Return Value of pim_installPackage = -1

Hi,
When I try to install a trial product like photoshop cs6 or master collection cs6 I keep getting the error " Installer failed to initialized". I used Adobe cleaner to remove all cs6 products and tried again, but no luck, the same error.
I opened the the log file and found that line :
[FATAL] Setup - Error installing C:\Users\moshe-a\Desktop\MasterCollection_CS6_LS6\packages\core\PDApp.pimx package.
Return Value of pim_installPackage = -1
Any idea how to fix the problem?
Thank you, Momu

start at the top and work your way down applying applicable fixes until your problem is resolved.

Security Update 2008-007 Error When Installing...

I am running a MacBook with OS 10.4.11 and since it's release, I have not been able to install security update 2008-007. It downloads no problem but at the end of the installation process a message reads "an error occured while installing." No details or further info are displayed. I have tried the different links in the forum, auto software update, apple.com, and all multiple times. I've tried the permissions repair, restarting, etc and now I am out of patience and options. Is this a user error, computer error, or program error? Is this update worth the trouble or just wait until the next one? Thank you in advance for any help.

Try installing while booted in Safe Mode. Maybe something else is running that is interfering.

[Forum FAQ]Start Menu Scroll Issue in Windows 10 Technical Preview Build 9926

Scenario:
When upgrading to Window 10 Technical Preview Build 9926 from Windows 10 Technical Preview Build 9879, you may notice that on the start menu, when you move mouse to the right side, it won’t scroll until you click it.
Solution:
This is because the value of the key DWORD
MouseWheelRouting which is under
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Control Panel\Desktop values changed to 0 after upgrade.
Note:
Before you make changes to a registry key or subkey, we recommend that you export, or make a backup copy, of the key or subkey.
Press Windows logo key +R to open Run, type
regedit, and then press Enter to open Registry Editor.
Navigate to the key HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Control Panel\Desktop.
On the right side, change the value of the DWORD MouseWheelRouting
to non-0 and non-1, for example 2, 3, which is set to 1 by default.
Exit Registry Editor.
Sign out and sign back.

same issue in build 10049.
It would help to be more specific in the symptom description. E.g. using Narrator may help. (Win-Enter). Does it say what you are "seeing" (or should be seeing)?
FWIW I think it is relatively easy to reproduce symptoms which are related to this thread's description using Narrator (Start Screen without Search bar, Search bar without Taskbar, or Search bar with Taskbar but without Start Menu
when the only time that the Search bar should appear is when the Start Menu is there, for example) so that could also help specify what your real symptom is. BTW there are horrendous delays when using Narrator.

Hey there!
I've spent the best part of the day unpicking this huge mess from the upgrade I completed last night - what a nightmare. I followed a tonne of advice - [actaully, this link was really helpful to me]: http://pcsupport.about.com/od/findbyerrormessage/a/msvcr80-dll-not-found-missing -error.htm however, I still could not fix the **** thing - and that was following basically a day of uninstalling, installing etc.
In the end - I completed a system restore taking my computer back about five days, and just ignoring the new upgrade with itunes until they can get this fixed.
I hope that this might work for you and anyone else reading this. It nearly drove me to drink [!]. I seemed to get past one error message and have it replaced by another - so the system restore was basically the last resort.
Good luck - !

About the error: "The account is not authorized to login from this station" when you access NAS devices from Windows 10 Technical Preview (build 9926)

Scenario:
With the release of Windows 10 Technical Preview (build 9926), some users may encounter an error message of “The account is not authorized to login from this station” when trying to access remote files saved in NAS storage. In
addition, the following error log may also be found via Event Viewer:
Rejected an insecure guest logon.
This event indicates that the server attempted to log the user on as an unauthenticated guest but was denied by the client. Guest logons do not support standard security features such as signing and encryption. As a result,
guest logons are vulnerable to man-in-the-middle attacks that can expose sensitive data on the network. Windows disables insecure guest logons by default. Microsoft does not recommend enabling insecure guest logons.
Background:
The error message is due to a change we made in Windows 10 Technical Preview (build 9926) which is related to security and remote file access that may affect you.
Previously, remote file access includes a way of connecting to a file server without a username and password, which was termed as “guest access”.
With guest access authentication, the user does not need to send a user name or password.
The security change is intended to address a weakness when using guest access. While the server may be fine not distinguishing among clients for files (and, you can imagine in the home scenario that it doesn’t
matter to you which of your family members is looking at the shared folder of pictures from your last vacation), this can actually put you at risk elsewhere. Without an account and password, the client doesn’t end up with a secure connection to the server.
A malicious server can put itself in the middle (also known as the Man-In-The-Middle attack), and trick the client into sending files or accepting malicious data. This is not necessarily a big concern in your home, but can be an issue when you take your
laptop to your local coffee shop and someone there is lurking, ready to compromise your automatic connections to a server that you can’t verify. Or when your child goes back to the dorm at the university. The change we made removes the ability to connect
to NAS devices with guest access, but the error message which is shown in build 9926 does not clearly explain what happened. We are working on a better experience for the final product which will help people who are in this situation.
As a Windows Insider you’re seeing our work in progress; we’re sorry for any inconvenience it may have caused.
Suggestion:
You may see some workarounds (eg. making a registry change restores your ability to connect with guest access).
We do NOT recommend making that change as it leaves you vulnerable to the kinds of attacks this change was meant to protect you from.
The recommended solution is to add an explicit account and password on your NAS device, and use that for the connections. It is a one-time inconvenience,
but the long term benefits are worthwhile. If you are having trouble configuring your system, send us your feedback via the Feedback App and post your information here so we can document additional affected scenarios.
