Windows 10: Is there a fix for 0x800f0831?

Every time I try to update my Laptop I get this error 0x800f0831 I'm trying to update to KB5027215 I've tried everything I could fine on YouTube on on forums.

:)

 

2023-05 Cumulative Update KB5026361 update failure 0x800f0831

Usual fix for that is an in-place upgrade repair install which keeps all progs and data like any 'upgrade' procedure.

I seem to recall that was suggested in your previous thread.

Tutorial available, and I've posted a 4 step short-form procedure many many times.

Windows 10 updates - Error 0x800f0831

I have a persistent 0x800f0831 error on a couple of Windows 10 Pro (build 19044) machines. It's been weeks since Updates are stuck, and I get this error.

I have tried whatever method I could find:

• Followed the steps provided by the Microsoft support chatbot, i.e. running DISM (/scanhealth, /checkhealth, /restorehealth).
  
• Run the Updates additional troubleshooter.
  
• Tried various (popular it seems) methods found on the internet, including stopping and starting update-related services while deleting various windows folders etc.
  

Nothing works. I am open to other suggestions. Machines are i5 16GB RAM.

Any more tips are apprieciated.

Hello try the DISM method just follow these steps:

1. Open Command Prompt, to do this right click on the start button and choose Command Prompt (Admin).

2. In the command prompt type:

dism /online /cleanup-image /restorehealth

and press enter

This will scan and fix the corrupted system files of your device.

If DISM doesn't fix the problem then try to this suggested fix by Microsoft:
