I've followed the instructions and understand that they may seem overwhelming for some users. Instead of using command line methods, I opted for Windows Disk Management to shrink the drive's partitions and create the necessary space.
It's surprising that a script hasn't been provided for this process, which suggests the complexity and potential pitfalls involved. This leads me to believe that the absence of a scripted, simple double-click solution is due to the intricate nature of the task. Consequently, I'm not optimistic about a prompt Windows Update fix, as many had hoped for.
However, I anticipate that third-party developers will soon release scripts or programs to automate this process.
