Microsoft won't fix Windows 0x80070643 errors, manual fix required (www.bleepingcomputer.com)

20240520 UPDATE: I just ran winupdate on an ancient win10 surface and after the same 643 error two more times, and running through all the available updates, it's now reporting I'm up to date. yippee.
I guess the latest update finally fixed it, at least on the Surface.

Anyone tried and succeeded? Not too awful plodding through the resizing? Tips to avoid destroying a partition and having to reinstall the os?

I have done this multiple times on servers. It's beyond simple and doesn't take but a few minutes. Follow the instuctions and you're gold.

Edit: In short, you use diskpart to resize the boot partition down, then use diskpart again to resize the recovery partition up with the space you created in step one.

Or you just runs the ps script provided by Microsoft. 1 line. No clue why they can't do that themselves for affected systems...

You could just free up space in the recovery partition
