Windows 10: Windows Update fail

Does anyone get the following when trying to use Windows Update

We couldn't get online to download your updates. We'll try again later, or you can check now. If it still doesn't work, make sure you're connected to the Internet.

have tried to search online, but no one lately has posted the same problem, this started 2 days after installment.

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

 

Win 10 Upgrade fail - support fail - policy fail

Did your upgrade of WIn10 activate??

 

Yes, everything is activated, all was fine until 2 days later, cannot get any windows update or download anything from store?

 

Are you logged into your Microsoft Account?

 

Okay here's a quick solution for you haplo you will need to re-install windows 10 but first do this

Go into “C:\Windows\SoftwareDistribution\Download” and delete everything in that folder.
Now, run the command prompt as an administrator. Type in “wuauclt.exe /updatenow”.
Then hit Enter on keyboard this will open up windows update and will start downloading again .

when its all finish in downloading it will then prepare to be installed everything gets done automatically.
after that is all done it will restart computer and you will have windows 10 running again. now right click on my computer
and it will show that your windows 10 is activated.

I presume your upgrading from another windows version. I had seven fail attempts in getting it to download, but after I did
the above instructions I got the full version downloaded and installed and activated as well..

with the store you have to use you email and password to get into store..

 

Yes I am Logged into my Microsoft Account, and as for your tip Coldy, Thanks but nothing happened, looks like it might be a possible wipe and clean install.

thanks

 

I had this same problem

 

you state you HAD THIS SAME PROBLEM, were you able to solve it?

 

Here are the number of attempts to repair

1 wipe clean a hard drive and install windows 10 Same problem
2 wipe clean a hard drive and reset bios settings to factory default and install windows 10 Same problem
3 install windows on another pc No problem

I think the problem install windows 10 in UEFI boot
Tomorrow I Will Try Again
install windows without uefi boot mode
It will tell you if the problem is fixed

 

Cheers

 

I install windows in MBR partition ,Btw what is difference between MBR and UEFI partition ?

 

Disable firewall, cheers! *Smile
