Windows_11_banner.png

This tutorial will show you how to do a repair install of Windows 11 by performing an in-place upgrade without losing anything.

If you need to repair or create a new recovery partition or having problems with the Windows 11 operating system on your PC, and the usual solutions will not fix it, you can do a repair install of Windows 11 by performing an in-place upgrade without losing anything.

You will keep all accounts, apps, and personal data.

You must be signed in as an administrator to perform a repair install of Windows 11.

You will only be able to perform a repair install of Windows 11 from within Windows 11. You will not be able to perform a repair install at boot or in Safe Mode.

You will need at least 20 GB of free space on the Windows drive to perform an in-place upgrade.


When you perform a repair install (in-place upgrade), the previous version of Windows in the Windows.old folder (up to 10 days after upgrade) will automatically get replaced by the current Windows. It is recommended to create a system image first if you would like to be able to go back to current previous Windows before it gets replaced.

This will download and install a repair version of the OS. This operation reinstalls the OS that you have and will not remove any files, settings, or apps.


1 Open Settings (Win+I).

2 Click/tap on System on the left side, and click/tap on Recovery on the right side. (see screenshot below)

8 You will now be on your desktop in Windows 11. (see screenshot below)

Option Two

Repair Install Windows 11 using ISO or USB Installation Media


1 Disable or uninstall any 3rd party AV or security program you have installed first to prevent it from interfering with the repair install of Windows 11. You can enable or reinstall it again after Windows 11 has finished installing.

It may be required to use the removal tool from the AV program developer to fully remove it.


2 If the Windows drive is encrypted by BitLocker, then you will need to either suspend or turn off BitLocker for the Windows drive before doing a repair install. Once installation has finished, you can resume or turn on BitLocker again.

3 Do the step below depending on how you want to install Windows 11.
  • step 4: To Repair Install Windows 11 with an ISO file
  • step 5: To Repair Install Windows 11 with USB Installation Media

The Windows 11 installation media (ISO or USB) must be the same edition, same version, and same or higher build as the currently installed Windows 11.

The Windows 11 installation media (ISO or USB) must be for the same language as your currently installed Windows 11.


4 To Repair Install Windows 11 with an ISO file

A) If you have not already, you will need to download a Windows 11 ISO file.​

B) Mount the ISO file, and go to step 6 below.​

5 To Repair Install Windows 11 with USB Installation Media

This does not have to be a bootable USB.


A) Connect and open the Windows 11 USB, and go to step 6 below. (see screenshot below)​

Repair_install_Windows11-1.png

6 Run the setup.exe file to start Windows 11 Setup. (see screenshot below)

Repair_install_Windows11-2.png

7 If prompted by UAC, click/tap on Yes. (see screenshot below)

Repair_install_Windows11-3.png

8 Windows 11 Setup will now start preparing. (see screenshot below)

Repair_install_Windows11-4.png

9 Click/tap on the Change how Setup downloads updates link. (see screenshot below)

You can check or uncheck (default) I want to help make the installation better depending on what you want. This will send setup info to Microsoft to help improve.


Repair_install_Windows11-5.png

10 Select (dot) Not right now for "Get updates, drivers and optional features". (see screenshot below)

Choosing to "download updates, drivers and optional features" will only add unnecessary overhead during the repair install, and could cause the repair install to stall if there was an issue.

You can check for updates via Windows Update after the repair install has finished to avoid this.


Repair_install_Windows11-6.png

11 Windows 11 Setup will now start getting things ready. (see screenshots below)

Repair_install_Windows11-7.png
Repair_install_Windows11-8.png

12 Click/tap on Accept for the license terms. (see screenshot below)

Repair_install_Windows11-9.png

13 Windows 11 Setup will now check to make sure you're ready to install and have enough space. (see screenshots below)

Repair_install_Windows11-10.png
Repair_install_Windows11-10b.png

14 Click/tap on the Change what to keep link. (see left screenshot below)

After doing step 15, click/tap on Install when ready to start the repair install of Windows 11. (see right screenshot below)


Repair_install_Windows11-11.png
Repair_install_Windows11-12.png

15 Select (dot) Keep personal files and apps, and click/tap on Next. (see left screenshot below)

If you only have Nothing available to select, then the installation media is not the same version or language as what you currently have installed.

When you click/tap on Next, you will go back to step 13. When you get to step 14 again, click/tap on Install when ready to start the repair install of Windows 11. (see right screenshot below)


If wanted, you can close the Windows 11 Setup window at this point to safely cancel the repair install before it starts. It will be too late after this step.


Repair_install_Windows11-13.png
Repair_install_Windows11-12.png

16 Windows 11 Setup will now start the repair install of Windows 11. (see screenshot below)

Your PC will restart several times. This might take a while.


Repair_install_Windows11-14.png

17 When the repair install of Windows 11 has finished, you can dismiss the lock screen and sign in to Windows 11. (see screenshots below)

18 You will now be on your desktop in Windows 11. (see screenshot below)

That's it,

This may seem a somewhat silly question but Windows has SFC and DISM which are supposed to sort out problems with file corruptions. If a repair install ensures all files are correct what are SFC and DISM not doing. If the repair install is making changes in the registry why isn't there a utility to perform that task.

SFC & DISM not working

W11 SP6 2621.2428. After last update, I cannot get SFC or DISM commands to run in terminal Admin. I enter the command and then the cursor blinks and does nothing. No error codes. Is it necessary to update powershell to ver 7xx, I am on 5xxx? Went to link mentioned below, above my pay grade
www.elevenforum.com www.elevenforum.com

Because it does not always solve the problem.

@DavidWilcox Sometimes, things are too "broke" for a simple SFC-DISM run. Yesterday, I found my Windows Defender had blown a gasket, and would neither start properly nor accept updates. WD is an integral part of Windows. An in-place repair is quick and easy, and you have all of your programs and most of your settings retained. I have a folder of .reg files and .bat files I run after a fresh install, and that puts everything back the way I want it , and working well, in a short while. Worth the effort.

It performs the same was an upgrade installation like from W10 to W11. All user accounts, data, apps, and most settings are retained, but the OS itself is refreshed.

It's a full reinstall of the system files, which retains all user data and almost all of the registry - a few things in the registry do get set back to their defaults.

Ok, so now I have gone to this section:

It wanted my language which I provided. And after some time, I finally got this message:

No clue why this message. Btw, I do not have a VPN, my W11 is a very vanilla affair.

It seems to think you are using VPN or something. Your browser may be using a VPN or addon/extension causing this.

You might try again, or with a different browser.

Did you try using another browser? And maybe we're missing something here: did you choose English (US) as language? I'm not asking you to tell me what language you chose, just whether you asked for English (US) or not.

Yes I chose English US.

I get the same error message with both Chrome and Edge.

It seems odd, I get the Windows updates regularly.

There was an (unrelated) site some time back that gave me a similar error, seemed to think I am on a VPN. The closest I can think of is that I live in a senior living complex which includes a building-wide Wi-Fi (produced and managed via a company called Single Digits). I have theorized that the building Wi-Fi setup may be acting as a VPN?

I am having no end of problems with my new Windows 11 PC. It's probably my fault. I have customized it with Winaero Tweaker, added Open-Shell and quite a number of old programs. I decided I would follow the instructions in this tutorial using Option 1 as I am very unsure of the technical side of things. However, I fell at the first hurdle. I don't seem to have an option to 'Fix problems using Windows Update'. What am I doing wrong?

Nothing wrong at all, that option is currently only available in the Insider Canary build 25905 or higher.
I assume you're not an Insider :wink:

For normal builds you should use Option Two.

    fully 'Windows 11 ready' laptop. Windows 10 C: partition migrated from my old unsupported 'main machine' then upgraded to 11. A test migration ran Insider builds for 2 months. When 11 was released on 5th October it was re-imaged back to 10 and was offered the upgrade in Windows Update on 20th October. Windows Update offered the 22H2 Feature Update on 20th September 2022. It got the 23H2 Feature Update on 4th November 2023 through Windows Update.
