The installation failed in the FIRST_BOOT phase with an error during MIGRATE_DATA operation

Question

_{Monday, January 29, 2018 2:52 AM}

I was trying to update Windows 10 using the Update Assistant today, but I ran into this error shown below.

We couldn't install Windows 10

We've set your PC back to the way it was right before you started installing Windows 10.

0x8007042B - 0x3000D

The installation failed in the FIRST_BOOT phase with an error during MIGRATE_DATA operation

My computer drives are partitioned like so:

C: (NTFS) Windows and default program files

D: (NTFS) All other Program Files

F: (NTFS) Data

I use Webroot & Malwarebytes for virus protection. I did also have my ProgramFilesDir/etc... changed to D: instead of C: in my registry editor, but before I ran the updater I changed it back to C: everywhere.

How can I fix this?

Oh.  Are you trying to jump from 10240 to 16299?  Maybe that's a problem.  What about trying an ISO Upgrade Repair instead?

Hi,

Please make sure Windows Dir is C default in registry.

And according to official document:

This error can be due to a problem with user profiles. It can occur due to corrupt registry entries under HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\ProfileList or invalid files in the \Users directory.

Note: If a previous upgrade did not complete, invalid profiles might exist in the Windows.old\Users directory.

To repair this error, ensure that deleted accounts are not still present in the Windows registry and that files under the \Users directory are valid. Delete the invalid files or user profiles that are causing this error. The specific files and profiles that are causing the error will be recorded in the Windows setup log files.

PS>net helpmsg (0x42B)

The process terminated unexpectedly.

Looks like an interferer is present.  Temporarily uninstall both your security packages to avoid the possibility that they would corrupt the install.  Otherwise wait a few days and maybe the interferers will get caught up with what your maintenance level should be.

Good luck

This computer did not fail 1 upgrade but failed 4 upgrades.

Why not post that information at the start of thread?

The computer has windows 10 version 1506.

The first version of windows 10 was version 1506.

1506 was available June, 2015.

It is now February 2018.

That is approximately 2 years and 2 months or 26 months.

What happened with upgrades to each 1511, 1607, 1703, and 1709?

What were the error messages and the error codes?

Was a metered connection used to prevent upgrades?

If not what method was used to prevent upgrades?

What links are available where technet or other websites troubleshooted the failures to upgrade?

What troubleshooting steps have already been done?

What happened that you decided to attempt to upgrade at this time?

I haven't tried to do any Windows updates since the original W10 installation. The four failed upgrades are all from the first attempts of installation over the past week or so. I've installed and upgraded my laptop using the same network and installation type as this (the only difference being the separated partition for my SSD). The network can't be the problem, I think it has something to do with the partition. 

I've done all upgrade attempts with the Windows Update Assistant tool, and the only errors that I see in the UI is the one on the main post. (0x8007042B - 0x3000D)

I had an installation fail just now as well:

I'm attempting to install using an ISO right now, currently in the download progress.

This is my C: drive

Windows performs upgrades automatically.  

There are methods to prevent upgrades.

How were you able to prevent the automatic upgrades?

Were there unexpected reboots?

Were there missed windows upgrade failure errors and codes?

For all tests /steps please post images into the thread.

For any problems posting images please use one drive or drop box share links.

There are additional steps that you could make before attempting an upgrade:

1) open administrative command prompt and type or copy and paste:

2) sfc /scannow

3) dism /online /cleanup-image /restorehealth

4) When these have completed > right click on the top bar or title bar of the administrative command prompt box > left click on edit then select all > right click on the top bar again > left click on edit then copy > paste into the thread

5) chkdsk /x /f /r

C:\Windows\system32>chkdsk /x /f /r
The type of the file system is NTFS.
Cannot lock current drive.

Chkdsk cannot run because the volume is in use by another
process.  Would you like to schedule this volume to be
checked the next time the system restarts? (Y/N)

Type:  Y

reboot

This may take many hours so plan to run overnight.

6) List all of the antivirus products that you remember using since you started using Windows 10 (always on and manual)

7) Use the applicable uninstall tool for each AV product so that the only AV product on the computer is Windows defender

8) Uninstall non-Microsoft disk encryption software

9) remove nonessential hardware
docks
USB devices
printers
headset
speakers
bluetoot devices
USB drives (other than a windows 10 iso if used for the upgrade)
USB Wireless Mouse or Keyboard Receiver, USB Wireless Network Card

10) These should be the only attached devices:
wired mouse
wired keyboard
monitor

11) Place the computer in clean boot:
https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/...oot-in-windows
How to perform a Clean Boot in Windows 10 - TechNet Articles - United States (English) - TechNet Wiki

12) Remove all unused SATA devices

There should only be 1 drive, the drive with windows connected to the computer at the time of the upgrade.

Remove drives D: and F:

13) Fix the page file size on drive c: as the current page file size is insufficient for a dump.

The page file needs to be larger that the RAM.

Memory: 8192MB RAM Available OS Memory: 8080MB RAM Page File: 5635MB

a) In the left lower corner search type: system > open system control panel >

on the left pane click advanced system settings > under performance click settings >

on performance options click the advanced tab > under virtual memory click change >

un-check automatically manage paging file size for all drives > check no paging file > click

ok.

b) under startup and recovery click settings > under system failure un-check automatically

restart > under write debugging information make sure that it displays automatic memory dump

and dump file is memory dump

reboot after both steps a and b

c) reverse the changes made in step a > under virtual memory un-check no paging file and

check automatically manage paging file size for all drives

d) reboot

e) post images into the thread for each: the virtual memory window and the startup and

recovery window after all of the above changes.

14) Run disk cleanup to clean temporary and system files

15) Open the HP website > software and drivers > enter the computers product or serial

number > select the operating system > view drivers > post a URL or hyperlink into the thread

https://support.hp.com/us-en/drivers

16) Check the BIOS and make sure the most up to date version has been installed

17) check the intel graphics driver and make sure the latest version is installed

18) Check the chip set and make sure that the latest version is installed

19) check all other drivers and make sure the latest editions are installed

20) Open this webpage and comment into the thread whether the computer was or was not

tested for windows 10: https://support.hp.com/us-en/document/c05195282

21) Was the computer built before 2013?

22) Find a flash drive that you can format (> or = 8 GB)

23) Create a bootable HP UEFI diagnostics USB hard drive. If you already have the HP

UEFI diagnostics installed on the computer check the version. The testing capability varies

by the version. Do not install it on the computer at this time and only create a USB.

http://www8.hp.com/us/en/campaigns/hpsupportassistant/pc-diags.html

24) Power on the computer and repetitively click the F9 key > open the bios boot menu >

run the full HP UEFI diagnostics on the flash drive and report the components tested and the

test results.

25) Open disk management > widen both the volume and status columns so that the contents in

the rows are in full view and nothing is cut off.

https://www.tenforums.com/tutorials/2503-disk-management-how-post-screenshot.html

26) Download and install: Minitool partition wizard > post an image into the thread.

27) Make sure that when it comes time to upgrade that there is at least 30 GB free space

on the drive. A minimum of 16 GB is needed for a windows upgrade. A minimum of 25 GB

free space is needed to create a crash dump. The more free space often the better the

windows performance.

28) Create a bootable windows 10 iso:

https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/software-download/windows10

29) At the time of the next upgrade attempt all of the above steps need to be completed and

during the upgrade there should be no connection to the internet. If available a wireless

hardware off should be used. The ethernet or cat5e cable should be disconnected and if

necessary the modem and router disconnected.

30) In the left lower corner search type msinfo32 > save as NFO to desktop > zip > post into

the thread

31) Open administrative command prompt and copy and paste this command after running the

sfc /scannow and dism /online /cleanup-image /restorehealth commands:

copy %SystemRoot%\minidump\.dmp "%USERPROFILE%\Desktop\&dxdiag /t %Temp%\dxdiag.txt&copy %Temp%\dxdiag.txt "%USERPROFILE%\Desktop\SFdebugFiles\&type %SystemRoot%\System32\drivers\etc\hosts >> "%USERPROFILE%\Desktop\hosts.txt"&systeminfo > "%USERPROFILE%\Desktop\systeminfo.txt"&driverquery /v > "%USERPROFILE%\Desktop\drivers.txt" &msinfo32 /nfo "%USERPROFILE%\Desktop\msinfo32.nfo"&wevtutil qe System /f:text > "%USERPROFILE%\Desktop\eventlog.txt"&reg export HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall "%USERPROFILE%\Desktop\uninstall.txt"&reg export "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Active Setup\Installed Components" "%USERPROFILE%\Desktop\installed.txt"&net start > "%USERPROFILE%\Desktop\services.txt"&REM wmic startup list full /format:htable >"%USERPROFILE%\Desktop\startup.html"&wmic STARTUP GET Caption, Command, User >"%USERPROFILE%\Desktop\startup.txt"

I had an installation fail just now as well:

[Please provide the support representative with this error code:  0x80072EE7]

This could still be a sign of interference from other things that you have installed.  Have you uninstalled or at least tried disabling the two that have been mentioned already?

For example, note this from the reference provided

<quote>
Note Programs, such as Web accelerators, DNS accelerators, DNS caching utilities, and Spyblockers, can add static IP entries for the Windows Update Web site or for the Microsoft Update Web site to your Hosts file. This scenario can cause Windows Update or Microsoft Update to fail.
</quote>

That is just for a HOSTS file explanation.  Other interferers could be simply changing the timing of requests enough to cause problem symptoms.  Note that a cumulative update involves changes to the whole OS, so having programs running thinking that they are "protecting" it will be inefficient at least.  Defender will take over from whatever you need to disable.  Note that a Defender update typically precedes a cumulative update too.

I installed Windows 10 with the ISO file using a USB and it worked fine. Thanks for the help.

FIXED: 

The original post stated:

0x8007042B - 0x3000D

The installation failed in the FIRST_BOOT phase with an error during MIGRATE_DATA operation

My computer drives are partitioned like so:

C: (NTFS) Windows and default program files

D: (NTFS) All other Program Files

F: (NTFS) DataI assume the configuration with "F: (NTFS) Data" was set so that partition was default for new user profiles created by changing the default in the Registry as I did, in my case my Data was set to E: and all new user profiles will go to E:\Users\UserName. I changed it back to C:\Users as it comes from the OEM and the next time I ran the update it went through flawlessly. Apparently when the update attempts to create the new user and the registry points to a drive different than C:\Users it gets confused and stops on it's tracks! After the update goes through you can change it back to your preferred drive: "F:\Users" in the case of reference.Hope this helps everyone!
