Windows 10: Windows Update, Error when updating Windows 10

I was trying to update my Windows 10 latptop to the latest version but after running the Windows Update in settings it then restarted saying it couldn't complete the Update and uninstalled all the changes once it booted back up I ran it again and checked the details this is what it said.




I have also tried the Windows 10 Update Assistant and it came up with the error code: 0x80070003.
I will send any extra information you need just let me know what you need to know.

How to Install Windows 10 on Devices with Limited Space

Even though I have an external device with more than 40 Gb capacity and the assistant recognizes it, it still keeps asking me to free 5 more Gb from the (unit C.

I have 3'62 Gb free memory in (Unit C. It asks me to free 5'63 Gb more. That'll make a total of 9'25 GB. The assistant needs 9'80 GB free memory to update windows 10 without any external device. Does this mean that my external device will only be used
for 0'55 GB? Please I don't understant anything. I just want my laptop to work. I'd stay with my actual version but it keeps showing me ads, interrupting my work and deleting random stuff because of uninterruptible random updates. It has already freed 3 GB
and I dont even know where from.

Thank you.

 

Windows 10 haven't updated to version 1511 --- How to find product key

I haven't run the ISO disk as of yet, I want the current product key in hand, on a post it note, prior to doing that, not interested in MS bullS**T about it not being needed. 2 hours online with tech support and they can't cope with the question of how
can the current product key be accessed in windows 10.

I've never owned a Apple product, but I can never see buying or having another MS product in my household after this.

NOT THE ONLY ONE

 

In the left lower corner search when you type winver is will open a pop up about windows.
View that an post an image into the thread.
HP computers typically come with UEFI diagnostics that check all of the hardware.
Open the HP website > software and drivers > view all of the available drivers and find the latest UEFI diagnostics.
See if you can download and install the latest version, 6.4
HP PC Hardware Diagnostics | HP® Official Site
Once you have the latest version of the UEFI diagnostics installed plan to run the hardware tests to run overnight.
Power on the computer and repetitively click the F2 or F10 keys. Then navigate in the bios to the UEFI diagnostics.
Then run a loop until failure test.
If there is any component failure, even the battery, the testing will abort.
If you view the monitor the next day and the loop until failure is still running that is a good sign.
If it has made at least 1 pass then press the keyboard escape key and then confirm a pass in the UEFI log.
Once these studies have completed you will have ruled in or ruled out hardware problems.
Then you can move onto software problems.

1) Create a bootable windows 10 iso: Download Windows 10

2) Open administrative command prompt and type or copy and paste these commands:
3) sfc /scannow
4) dism /online /cleanup-image /restorehealth
5) chkdsk /scan
6) When these have completed > right click on the top bar or title bar of the administrative command prompt box > left click on edit then select all > right click on the top bar again > left click on edit then copy > paste into the thread


Attempt an in place upgrade repair using the bootable windows 10 iso.

This is the method:
1) power on the computer and boot to the desktop.
2) open file explorer > this PC > local C: drive
3) insert the windows 10 iso into any USB port
4) identify the windows 10 iso within file explorer and click on it
5) look for a file named setup or setup.exe
6) launch the setup file
7) choose language, time, currency, and keyboard
8) do not click on install
9) instead look in the lower left and click on repair your computer
10) follow the text and images in this link to complete the in place upgrade repair.

Read the information within the link about how this is supposed to save files and applications.
At the same time if it is possible it will upgrade the computer.
You do not need to be connected to the internet and it is preferable that you turn off wireless using a hardware button and make sure that there is no ethernet connection.

If this upgrade fails you will then need to find the panther logs, cbs log and attempt to translate the language and error codes to find out about the failure to upgrade.
If this upgrade works then you have solved many problems at once.

 

I Won't be able to do the last part until next week as I currently don't have a flash drive with me, but I ran everything else I could and no component errors were found.

.6/7) The Reason why it wasn't until now is I wans't able to access my latptop until recently as I was experiencing a "Handle Is Invalid" Error on login and at the time I could not find a solution until somewhat recently, Once managing to log back in the next issue was there was many path finding errors so it was extremely difficult to get around on my laptop until I reset enough of the paths to get around without problems.

In the logs there were many windows update failures as expected.
Let us know when you have the bootable windows 10 iso.
Immediately before the in place upgrade repair please change each the cbs and the dism files to old.
scannow and restorehealth will be run creating new files.
Then the in place upgrade repair will be done.
If it fails you will look for the panther folder.
Some of the files are by default hidden so file explorer view must be modified to display hidden files when searching.
There were integrity violations or operating system corruption that was fixed by scannow.
By creating new cbs and dism files without the corruption it may make the task of deciphering the log contents less complex.

1) perform a windows update
2) open administrative power shell and type or copy and paste: Get-WindowsUpdateLog
This may take 5 to 10 minutes to complete.
Upon completion there will be a txt file on the desktop.
3) Using a one drive or drop box please post a share link into the thread.

When you performed the windows update were there any failed KB# with error codes?
The windows update logs displayed these error codes:
80240022
8024000c
80070003
180000a
180200a
8024402c (result)

Do you still have a canon printer attached to the computer?
The upgrade failure appears to be driver related (Bree post #5).
So if there is hardware or software that is no longer in use any of these software applications or drivers can be uninstalled.

 

Yes there was 1 KB# Error

Security Update for Windows 10 for x64-based Systems (KB3172729) -Error

The other 2 KB#'s Does not show any Errors


No, I don't have a canon printer attached to my computer and I am removing the driver for it now.

 

Please download and install driver view and post a link with the driver information in case it is needed after the in place upgrade repair.
