Ok this is what we do for the upgrade.
Note I do this on my Windows 10 machine, but download the Windows 10 Media Creation Tool.
Run that and download the ISO.
Mount that ISO (Windows 10 natively supports this) or use 7zip to extract without mounting.
Copy those files to a new server location for deployment.
Now the first thing we do is disable Fast Boot.
REG ADD "HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Session Manager\Power" /v HiberbootEnabled /t REG_DWORD /d 0 /f
We then disable the battery sleeping
cmd.exe /c powercfg -x -standby-timeout-dc 0
Followed by powered sleeping
cmd.exe /c powercfg -x -standby-timeout-ac 0
This is basically to ensure the machine stays online while we deploy. We have a group policy that sets the power settings back later, but if you don't have that you might want to set your power settings back afterwards.
Now the fun part we deploy Windows 10 (this is the silent install doesn't display anything to the user or reboot, it waits for the user to do the normal shutdown etc, then does the upgrade.
"{PackageShare}\Microsoft\Windows 10 v21H1\setup.exe" /auto upgrade /quiet /noreboot /DynamicUpdate disable /Compat IgnoreWarning
We also have another deployment we use where the /noreboot is excluded, this is used by IT when we upgrade a bunch of machines out of ours and they can reboot as soon as needed etc.
Hopefully this helps you in the right direction.
If you get any that fail etc, it would be good to run the following and review the logs for failures.
