If you’re one of these unlucky users, don’t worry! In this blog post, we’ll cover how to fix Windows 11 installation errors so you can get your OS up and running in no time. We’ll look at common errors, troubleshooting tips, and more—so read on to get your system up and running again.

Back up your computer

If you’re getting a Windows installation error, the first thing you should do is back up your computer. This will ensure that if something goes wrong during the installation process, you’ll be able to restore your data.

There are a few different ways to back up your data, but we recommend using an external hard drive. This way, you can just plug in the hard drive and copy all of your files over. Make sure to back up any important files that you don’t want to lose!

Once you have a backup of your data, you can proceed with trying to fix the Windows installation error. If you’re not sure how to do this, there are plenty of resources online that can help. Just make sure to follow any instructions carefully so that you don’t accidentally damage your computer.

Clean your computer’s registry

If you’re seeing the Windows Installation Error, it’s likely because your computer’s registry is cluttered with old, unused, or corrupted files. Fortunately, cleaning your registry is a relatively easy process that can be completed in just a few minutes.

To clean your registry, start by downloading and installing a reputable registry cleaner. Once the registry cleaner is installed, launch it and scan your computer for any errors. When the scan is complete, fix any computer repair errors that are found and then restart your computer. After restarting, try installing Windows again and see if the error has been fixed.

Update your drivers

If you’re encountering a Windows installation error, one of the first things you should try is updating your drivers. This is because outdated or corrupt drivers can often cause problems during installation.

To update your drivers, first head to your manufacturer’s website and look for their driver download page. From there, you can download the latest drivers for your specific device and install them on your computer.

If you’re not sure which drivers to download, you can use a driver update tool like Driver Booster to scan your system and identify the correct drivers for you. Once you’ve downloaded and installed the updated drivers, restart your computer and try installing Windows again.

Scan for malware

If you think that your computer may be infected with malware, it’s important to scan for and remove any malicious software as soon as possible. There are a few different ways to do this, but we recommend using a reliable anti-malware program like Malwarebytes.

Once you’ve downloaded and installed Malwarebytes, open the program and click the “Scan” button. This will start a scan of your computer for any malicious software that may be present. If any threats are found, Malwarebytes will provide you with a list of the infections it has found and let you know what actions it has taken to neutralize them.

Use the system file checker tool

If you’re seeing the Windows installation error, “this copy of Windows is not genuine,” then it’s time to run the system file checker tool. This tool will scan your files and repair any that are corrupt or missing.

To use the system file checker tool:

1. Go to Start > Run. Type cmd and hit Enter.
2. At the command prompt, type sfc /scannow and hit Enter.
3. The system file checker tool will now scan your files and repair any that are corrupt or missing.

Run the DISM tool

The DISM tool is a powerful utility that can fix many types of installation errors. To use the DISM tool, follow these steps:

1. Download the DISM tool from the Microsoft website.
2. Extract the contents of the zip file to a folder on your hard drive.
3. Open an elevated command prompt. To do this, click Start, type Command Prompt, right-click Command Prompt, and then click Run as administrator.
4. In the command prompt, change to the folder where you extracted the contents of the zip file in step 2. For example, if you extracted the files to C:\dism, type cd /d C:\dism at the command prompt.
5. Type dism /online /cleanup-image /scanhealth and press Enter. The scan may take some time to complete.
6. Type dism /online /cleanup-image /restorehealth and press Enter. The restore operation may take some time to complete.
7. Close the command prompt window when finished

Reset Windows Update

If you’re seeing a Windows installation error, it might be caused by a problem with your internet connection, your computer’s hardware, or something else. To fix the problem, try resetting Windows Update.

Here’s how to reset Windows Update:

1. Press the Windows key + I on your keyboard to open the Settings app.

2. Click Update & Security.

3. Click the Troubleshoot tab, then click Reset Windows Update under the “Reset and clean up” section.

4. Click Reset once you see the confirmation message. After the reset process finishes, try installing updates again to see if the issue has been fixed.
