repeated issue with windows 10 installation

Matty summed it up wonderfully. I'm having the same problem, and so thanks to anyone who can post a solution. I've tried updating to Win 10 via direct download, via ISO image on USB drive, and it always fails. Ran Windows Update Troubleshooter, and followed
all the steps to resolve it manually as described on the following page, and still it always fails with the 80070003 error code.

Windows 10 Error

I get this error while upgrading to windows 10. I've tried 4 times b4. Windows Update error 0x80070003, 80070003, or WindowsUpdate_80070003

 

Same here, takes 4 hours to download then fails. Tried 3 times

 

Windows 10 ISO Download - Windows 10 Forums

My want to try upgrading from the ISO and bypassing WU entirely.

 

Isn't that complicated - why don't microsoft make thing work, I only bought the laptop 12 months ago.

 

Same issue here. ISO doesn't help and it seems that it is not a true ISO, just something to start the process (at least if installed on a flash drive.).

The problem can be caused by partition manager.

 

I had two laptops screwed up by easus todo partition manager which I am pretty sure caused by 80070003 errors. In my case I found this after I did a complete factory restore and then changed my HDD to an SSD. At this time my partitions were ok (after the restore). I then attempted to use the same software to do a clone in order to use the new SSD. The resulting non-os partitions looked wrong so I contacted their support and they agreed. I then used another clone software that came with my clone cable and the results were good. I sent those results to easus todo support. They acknowledged the issue but offered no solution. I sent the same results to the maker of the clone cable who noted that their software seemed to have fixed the partitions.
My question is, why doesn't Microsoft know this?
