[SOLVED] Windows Update error code (0x800700c1)

[rabbit]

@Maxstar here's the info from Windows update:



Also, I've tried to re-run sfc /scannow command and it's start to work again, stopped at 100% after last SFCFix run.



After that I've re-run DISM /online /cleanup-image /RestoreHealth again, this time it stops almost at the end:



New CBS logs are attached as well

I've blurred the first screenshot because your email adress and name were visible.

Here's the next fix.

Step 1.
Warning: This fix was written specifically for this system. Do not run this fix on another system.

• Save any work you have open, and close all programs.
• Download the attachment SFCFix.zip and save it to your desktop.
• Drag the SFCFix.zip file over the SFCFix.exe executable and release it.

• SFCFix will launch, let it complete.
• Once done, a file will appear on your desktop, called SFCFix.txt.
• Post the logfile (SFCFix.txt) as attachment in your next reply.

Step 2. Run the following DISM command and post the result. If it fails attach a new copy of the CBS log.

DISM /online /cleanup-image /RestoreHealth

@Maxstar it seems like it's all done,

DISM /online /cleanup-image /RestoreHealth ended with a success message



sfc /scannow too

Each command located a single corrupted file and successfully recovered it from the store.

I've tried to re-run the update from a Windows Update center, now the error code is different: 0x80248007



Should I try to setup from the image?

@Maxstar completed another SFCFix

This looks much better. So I would suggest to make a full system image before attempting to update or to perform a in-place-upgrade again.

 

[rabbit]

@Maxstar I've done a try to do in-pace-upgrade and the same from an update center, still not working unfortunately: Windows 11 installation has failed.

Can I switch from Insider builds to regular updates, e.g. the latest 24H2?



After restoring from backup, at the moment when I started noticing update issues, I wasn't having Insider branch enabled, so I've reactivated it with a menu. Might it be the reason why it's not updating to the latest Insider update?

Current win version (winver): 22621.3880

 

[Maxstar]

Are you able to leave the DEV channel from the settings screen? (post #21)

 

[rabbit]

@Maxstar I was able to switch to a Release Preview channel, installed a new update: KB5044380.

After that, PC restarted several times and it worked without any pending updates after the last reboot.

However, I remain unsure why there's no plan to upgrade to 24h2, especially since support for 22h2 has concluded.

 

[Maxstar]

I can't read the info on the screenshots, but checkmark in green says this system is up-to-date now. Are there any remaining issues?

 

[rabbit]

It said everything went well and no pending updates. Will try to install an 24h2 from iso. Thanks for your help and spent time @Maxstar - you are truly a magician!

 

[Maxstar]

You're welcome and let me know the result after upgrading to 24H2 and thank you for your donation to Sysnative.

 

[rabbit]

@Maxstar I've successfully updated to 24h2 with a uupdump! You're rock star! Can't say enough how much I really appreciate your help.

 

[Maxstar]

Hi,

You're welcome. Glad to hear this system is fully up-to-date now...
I will mark this thread as solved.
