  1. Windows 10 Feature Update 20H2 consistently fails with 0x80242016


    I am using Microsoft Windows 10 Pro Version 1809 and trying to update to Version 20H2.

    I keep getting 0x80242016 error.

    I was in previous version I got 0x80242016 error when trying to upgrade and so after extensive research tried

    Windows 10 Installation Media:

    1. Insert the Media (DVD/USB) in your PC and restart.
    2. Boot from the media.
    3. Select Repair Your Computer.
    Select Troubleshoot.

    1. Choose Command Prompt from the menu:
    Type in the command:
    Diskpart
    Type in the command:
    List disk (Note which disk is your Boot drive number mine is 0)
    Type in the command:
    Sel disk 0
    Type in the command:
    List vol (Note which volume is the EFI partition mine is 4)
    Type in the command:
    Sel vol 4
    Type in the command:
    assign letter=V:
    Type in the command:
    Exit
    Type in the command:
    V:
    After you have assigned a drive letter Using Diskpart You can format the EFI partition:
    Example: if you assigned a letter V to the partition the command would be:
    format V: /FS:FAT32
    Type in the command:
    bcdboot C:\windows /s V: /f UEFI

    This did not work so I wiped hard drive and reinstalled Windows 10.



    Now I have an issue that I cannot install Feature Updates. They keep failing to install with 0x80242016 error.
    Any ideas how to resolve issue?

    Thank you for all help given.

    :)
