Hello Windows Insiders!

I'm having trouble installing Beta Channel build 26200.8079 via Windows Update.

the build downloads, I reboot to complete the build installation and as soon as I reboot I open windows update and there is an error that says:

Windows 11 Insider Feature Update 26200.8079 - Installation Error - 0xc0000409

Please someone help resolve this problem!

    The error code 0xc0000409 during the installation of a Windows Insider build typically indicates a "Stack Buffer Overrun" or a system integrity issue that prevents the update from completing successfully.

    Sometimes, VPN or proxy settings can cause issues with Windows Update. Try disabling these settings and see if it resolves the problem.

    Run Command Prompt as an administrator, then run the commands `net stop wuauserv` and `net stop bits` in sequence. Next, delete all files in the `C:\Windows\SoftwareDistribution\Download` folder. Finally, run `net start wuauserv` and `net start bits`, then restart your computer.
