This error is one of the common problems when updating or upgrading to Microsoft Windows 10. You might get this error even if you have plenty of physical memory because the problem is caused by not enough hard drive memory or more specifically, not enough contiguous space. This problem originates from the areas of the memory that have been marked as bad by the Windows built-in Boot Configuration Data or BCD.
This interferes with the Windows 10 installer’s ability to use RAM as a temporary storage of data. Here’s a way how to fix this problem. Start your computer and boot normally. After booting, press the Windows key then type without quotes “cmd” in the search field. Right-click “cmd.exe” in the search results then select “Run as administrator” to launch an elevated command prompt.
In the command prompt window, type the following command then hit Enter:
bcdedit /enum all
This will list all the memory locations that have been marked as “bad.” Type the following command then hit Enter:
bcdedit /deletevalue {badmemory} badmemorylist
Wait until the process is complete. When it is finished, close the command prompt then restart the computer.
