Windows 11 migration - Install issues

Hey guys,

Our company’s in the process of finally migrating to windows 11. Im running the “In-place Upgrade” without checks and I keep running into failures.

Im having like a 50% success rate on upgrades. Some go with no issues, some keep giving my the following failure

It keeps failing with errors like

2025-04-18 10:29:21, Error MOUPG CMoSetupOneSettingsHelperT::GetSettingsParameters(210): Result = 0x8000000A
2025-04-18 10:29:24, Error CONX Appraiser: ERROR,SdbpGetManifestedMergeStubAlloc,1017,SdbpGetMergeSdbsDisabled failed [c0000034]

2025-04-18 10:29:30, Error CONX Appraiser: ERROR,SdbpGetManifestedMergeStubAlloc,1017,SdbpGetMergeSdbsDisabled failed [c0000034]

Error code: -1073741584

Ive done the whole dism sfc scann stuff.

Ive cleared out old updates in %systemroot%\softwaredistrubtion

Someitmes i can reboot the pc like 5 times and it will finally just work. But thats getting a little silly at this point.

The version I’m pushing down

Windows 11 build B22631.2428 (version 23H2)

Any ideas?

Hello.
When that failure occurs, some more details could be found in the file C:\Windows\Logs\SetupDiag\SetupDiagResults.xml

Possibly incompatible drivers?

It seems that a software or a driver on your computer is not compatible with the target OS. You can find more details on the logs files like
C:$Windows.~BT\Sources\Panther\CompatData.xml
Here you should find the compatibility issue that must be solved before retrying the upgrade.
Thanks.

There is no ‘C:\windows\logs\setudiag’ folder on these pcs with this error log.
and the CompataData.xml’s are showing nothing.
