    Windows Update from Windows Home 10 to Windows 11 always fails with error 0x80242016


    I have DELL XPS 8940 machine with Windows 10 Home originally from Dell. Since more than half year ago, Windows Update prompt me to upgrade to Windows 11. Such upgrade however always fails with following System event log message. I wonder what's the possible cause and what are the remedies? Log Name: SystemSource: Microsoft-Windows-WindowsUpdateClient Date: 7/3/2022 11:26:20 AM Event ID: 20 Task Category: Windows Update Agent Level: Error Keywords: Failure,Installation User: SYSTEM Computer: XPS8940 Description: Installation Failure: Window

    Windows 10 Tweaks

    Pressing “Windows+Pause Break” (it’s up there next to scroll lock) opens the “System” Window.

    Windows 10: In the new version of Windows, Explorer has a section called Quick Access. This includes your frequent folders and recent files. Explorer defaults to opening this page when you open a new window. If you’d rather open the usual This PC, with links to your drives and library folders, follow these steps:

    • Open a new Explorer window.
    • Click View in the ribbon.
    • Click Options.
    • Under General, next to “Open File Explorer to:” choose “This PC.”
    • Click OK

    Windows Update from Windows Home 10 to Windows 11 always fails with error 0x80242016 [​IMG]

    So the main question is "do i need reinstall that update or it installed correct and everything is okay?"
