The issue can be resolved by allocating an additional 250 MB of storage space to the recovery partition. Details on how to do that can be found here.

However, at least on Windows 10, Microsoft has acknowledged that an automatic resolution for this issue will not be released and as such, the only way to fix this is manually.

So there is a solution and the headline should be "Microsoft admits it can't automatically fix..."

If it can be done manually, I don't see any reason it can't be done automatically. Other than just not wanting to allocate the person-power to it.

Why would they do that when they can use this as yet another push to move people to windows 11.

That was my thought. I'm not sure if it's based in science, but I remember being a huge fan of Windows 2000 back in the day, and Microsoft pushed a final service pack that made it highly unstable in 2005, and refused to update/fix it. My theory was that they were trying to push everyone to Windows XP, but I'm prone to thinking the worst of large corporations.
