    Error Code (0x80240fff) when trying to update Windows


    Hi,


    I have had to reinstall Windows 10 Home and reset my laptop but there are problems finding and installing updates, due to error code (0x80240fff).


    I now am unable to reinstall some of my old software, eg Photoshop, Revit, etc, due to incompatibility issues with Windows which were not a problem previously. Photoshop is saying:


    "you must update your system to install Photoshop: Windows 7 Service Pack 1, Windows 10 or later (Note: Windows 8, Windows 8.1, and Windows 10 Version 1507 and Windows 10 version 1511 are not supported)"


    Please help!


    Thanks,


    N

    :)

    It happens to new computers with fresh Windows 10 version Build 10240.

    Some have a Fix with "defer upgrade" option, but she's not in Home version.

    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:

    http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/softw...load/windows10

    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.
