Can't update the build 16288.1 (rs3-release)

 When update the new build 16288, I get the notice "An update is being prepared for your device, but it's not quite ready yet. We'll keep trying or you can try again now" (with error 0x80240034)

Same problem here. Stopping and starting the Windows Update service / deleting the download folder under SoftwareDistribution did nothing.

Try this.  Download wu170509.diagcab, save it to your desktop,  run it... I hope this solves your problem.. Good luck.

    i tried multiple things sfc scannow found errors and the update repair fixed also something but the only thing that changed was that the update stops at 12% now and not at 13%

      After like 15 or so failed install attempts, deleting C:\$WINDOWS.~BT and C:\Windows\SoftwareDistribution\Download solved the 12% fail for me and 16288.1 installed just fine after that.
