Windows 10: 0x80240fff Error in trying to download updates

Hi Guys. Just about tried everything including specific MS Win 10 tools. I heard that it may be a change required to a System 32 file. Any help would be appreciate. Particularly from someone who has fixed this issue. Thank you.

Windows update code error 0x80240fff

Hi Tiribos and welcome to Tenforums.
If I understand you correctly, you have 10240 on your "W10 Home" system, and the error happens when trying to update to the November 1511 release, correct?

In this case, the page previous to the one you link, has the answer:

Use the ISO's to do an In-place upgrade.

Media creation Tool is now updated with Version 1511, OS Build 10586 of Windows 10.

Download link for Media Creation Tool:

Detailed steps on how to Download an ISO using Media creation Tool:

Then do an InPlace upgrade using Method 1 from here:
Repair Install Windows 10 with an In-place Upgrade
The size of the update through Windows update and ISO are nearly the same.
