you have corrupted files you will need to fix this in the cmd.

 

NOTE: Make sure to run these commands in CMD in admin mode. write CMD in the windows 11 search in the taskbar and right click and run as admin

 

DISM /Online /Cleanup-Image /RestoreHealth > then run sfc /scannow 

 

You may need to make sure the time and date are correct so go to the control panel (search this in the windows 11 search in the taskbar). and go to the following

 

click on Clock and region > than click date and time > then click internet tab beside additional clocks > then click change setting.

 

you with be given a window called Internet Time Settings just click  update now then click OK. I know this may seem a bit odd, but it could be one of the reason. there's a article that explains it better then i could ever do.

Thanks for the info and help here. But, I went through all of the above and yet still to no avail. Not able to get: Windows 11 Insider Preview 10.0.22623.730 (ni_release)-Download error - 0x80248007 to download. I click retry. nothing happens now. I have even tried to redownload Windows 11. That wouldn't work either. I'm a gamer and love to help with this Insider program and work with others a swell. Please help someone. I've gone through all of the Windows troubleshooters and with the techs as well. What can I do?
