Windows insider preview 22621.1 (ni_release)
I can download the update but it will not install and I get error code 0x80070002 and the suggestion to try again which I havew done to no avail.

mhendric Nevermind. I figured out what worked for me. I was getting access errors when I tried to delete/alter the files, in question. Reminder for who needs it: 1.) Make sure your login is in the local admins group. 2.) On the folder (files) in question, Right-click -Properties-Security-Advanced. 3.) Change Owner from SYSTEM to your Account (next, next, Finish). 4.) If not still open...Right-click - Properties - Security - Edit - Add your account - and give Full rights (next, next, Finish).. That SHOULD give you the ability to delete the offending folder - and Retry the Update. Anyway - I hope this helps someone - it worked for me! Thanks again, Ethan!

Thank you for posting, changing permissions and taking ownership of the object in the test versions is also used in my case and it really works on many computers, but it requires experience.,
However, I suggest great caution.
Best regards
