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)

      • Windows 10 Insider Preview 16288.1 (rs3_release)

       

      Werkt bij tot 81% nl blijft dan uren draaien... tot gedwongen afzetten van pc. Start terug nl vorige versie wordt terug geplaatst.
      Steeds weer dezelfde melding na drie pogingen.

       

      Wat is hier de oplossing, wil de installatie blijft zichzelf downloaden?

        Installation may take several hours, please be patient. It took me 4-6 hours for installation and was successful. My current version is 1709.

    Windows insider on twitter says the issue has gone now... But it's not. Tell them on twitter too.

    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.

      Wonder why others couldn't download/install Build 16288.  I got mine smoothly and so far it's working fine.  For those who are having problems...try this and I hope it will work.  Download wu170509.diagcab and run it.. Good Luck.

        This suggestion worked for me. Weird because it just deleted the update file which I had done manually already. However it worked so that's all I care about. Thanks again.
