I recently updated a ASUS Transformer tab to Windows 10 but during the update process recieved the following message:
setup has failed to initialize the working directory
After looking into the problem, I was able to determine that it was related to the amount of free space on the drive (the Transformer only has a 32gb SSD and I had less than 7GB free)
I cleared some space (just over 10GB) and re-ran the update without issue
Hope it helps someone
Update:
When you do finally get past this error, if you don't have over 10GB free the update will ask you to either free up more space or plug in an external USB HDD - which is what I did to get around this. Once the update was complete and you definitely didn't need to rollback you can wipe the external.
