Errors: "0x8024200d", "0xc1420127", "0x80131501" while installing Windows 10 Pro, version 1511.

Automatic update tried to update Windows 10 so many times with different error codes as below

"Failure Content Install Installation Failure: Windows failed to install the following update with error 0x8024200d: Upgrade to Windows 10 Pro, version 1511, 10586.'

"Failure Content Install Installation Failure: Windows failed to install the following update with error 0xc1420127: Upgrade to Windows 10 Pro, version 1511, 10586."

"Failure Content Install Installation Failure: Windows failed to install the following update with error 0x8024200d: Upgrade to Windows 10 Pro, version 1511, 10586."

"Failure Content Install Installation Failure: Windows failed to install the following update with error 0x8024200d: Upgrade to Windows 10 Pro, version 1511, 10586."

"Failure Content Install Installation Failure: Windows failed to install the following update with error 0x8024200d: Upgrade to Windows 10 Pro, version 1511, 10586."

and so on and so on on on more attempts.

The latest error is

"Failure Content Install Installation Failure: Windows failed to install the following update with error 0x80131501: Upgrade to Windows 10 Pro, version 1511, 10586."

I have tried researching all the internet responses to this problem but no solution works.

I am really frustrated now and would appreciate some HELP.

HI there,

It seems that your system is having trouble downloading the update from Windows Update.

Could you try working through Section C on this KB > https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/kb/910341 and tell us the results.

You may also be better of manually downloading the installation media from Microsoft as I've mentioned elsewhere.

Please let me know how this works out for you.

 

it is genuine as I got it direct from Microsoft after I got conned by version I bought online and used for nearly a year before it failed
found this in answers Microsoft and seams to be working update saying preparing to install.
have to wait and see what happens

This worked for me...

1) Access this file location C:\Windows\SoftwareDistribution\Download and delete everything there. (Note delete only content found there and not the Download folder itself)

2) Open CMD (command prompt) with run as administrator (admin privileges) and run this command: wuauclt.exe /updatenow

The Update Window should pop-up with downloading Windows 10 again, and if your lucky it will be the complete kit this time.

That post makes it seem like the original installation files were corrupted during the download. So clearing them out and starting again would fix it.

Let us know how it goes!

 

i did the method suggested it just keeps redownloading the files and prompts and error after its done, I guess because Microsoft still didn't push the "ok to install" the download in the GWX notification.

 

Hi @hmd899, Can you please create a new thread with details pertaining to your problem? It may be similar or completely different to the OP.

Thanks
@goatty2, Seems like your system is all going strong now!

 

so far things working except store it crashes after a few seconds so doing a reboot at the moment
store still not working

 

2 reboots and store is working at the moment

 

Glad to hear you are up and running now. Hopefully all your issues have now been resolved!

 

did a win update and downloading 3 files but seams stuck at 92%

 

Goaty,
I suspect their hosting systems are swamped.
I would expect things to go wonky when accessing that cloud in these early days, if not for longer.

What you describe are all symptoms of what could be the cause, hosting issues.

Even blizzard mucks it up on game launches.
This is just MS.
