Windows 10: Announcing Windows 10 Insider Preview Build 16170 for PC

I had that happen a lot in one particular VM I had back a month or two ago after I forced quite (well, forced reboot actually) of the VM while it was downloading the then current IP build.

I never did get that fixed, other than letting that build get skipped and checking for a new build after a second build was pushed out - and what do you know, that VM went and downloaded and installed the first build instead of skipping it and installing the current build lol.

If there is one thing that M$ really, really needs, it is a downloadable utility that automatically cleans up the WU repository correctly and successfully every time. I spent a combined time of over 36 hours trying to fix that, employing countless suggestions (well over 30 different things, some of which had similar elements or re-iterated steps between items, but nothing worked for me on that VM.

 

When someone from MS posts a work around it should work or the build should be pulled.

 

No, wynona, the 'fix' didn't work for me either. I gave up til they get their act together and download something that is suitable. Too many of us can't get this to download.

 

No problem here just the standard 3 and a bit hours later.
and they stiil keep dropping the wrong wifi driver in.......

Getting the same error here.

 

Yeah, Jeff, and both of us generally get the new Build quickly and hardly ever have a problem with it! Sheesh!

 

First try failed at 32% working on updates. This has happened before, and a 2nd attempt has succeeded. So I tried again, and now am on version 1703 (OS build 16170.1000). I have a video card driving primary and secondary monitors, and a 3rd monitor driven by the on-board graphics. After the 1st reboot at 30% working on updates, it increments to 32% then switches the display to the 3rd monitor. After the 75% reboot, the display reverts back to my primary monitor. Don't know if that has any bearing on the failures at 32%, but wonder. First time that switch to the 3rd monitor happened (way back) I didn't have that monitor powered, and concluded that the update had failed!
System Protection was turned off again, but it seems to have kept my default programs, at least the ones I have used since the update.

 

Imod, I have dual monitors, and while it's doing its installation thing, it keeps flipping back and forth between them. I don't think the monitor thing has anything to do with its failure to install . . . too many of us have that problem now.

 

Here is what's new in Windows 10 Build 16170.

• We fixed the issue causing your PC to fail to install new builds on reboot with the error 8024a112.

One of the fixes...

 

Not my error, Josey . . . So I'm not gonna even go there.

 

Now this is frustrating.

This used to be so darn easy now it's far from that.

 

Yes I know but they fix one error then post a work around that doesn't work.

 

All My fails had this:




Don't know if this is the cause ? But when I finally had an upgrade work, it didn't download the Marker File ?

 

If I try again it will be tomorrow, they said that they were working on a fix and it is too late now to try it.*What

 

- have no fear, it will work eventually..
