Hallo Zusammen,
ich hoffe ihr könnt mich ein wenig unterstützen 🙂
Folgendes Problem:
Ich bekomme wöchentlich immer die Meldung, dass das Funktionsupdate 20H2 zur Installation bereitsteht - die Installation läuft auch tadellos durch, doch dann erscheint die Meldung "Wir konnten das Update nicht installieren".
Es kommt vermehrt zu dem Fehlercode: 0x80242016 oder auch 0xc1900223
Daher hat Windows "das Ende des Lebenszyklus erreicht"
Mehrfache versuche das Update händisch zu installieren schlugen fehl "Das Update ist nicht kompatibel".
Auch den Versuch, das Update via neu heruntergeladener ISO zu installieren war nicht erfolgreich.
Nach wie vor startet sich der PC 2-3x neu und versucht die Installation erneut.
Im Anhang ein paar Infos zum System.
Ich hoffe auf euer Schwarmwissen und verbleibe vorerst mit besten Grüßen

Hi @SickPhil
I have a few recommendations to resolve the issue, please run cmd in elevated mode (Run as Admin), and execute the below commands step by step:
sfc /scannow
dism /online /cleanup-image /scanhealth
dism /online /cleanup-image /restorehealth
The first command will check the system file corruption, second and third command will use DISM (Deployment Image Servicing and Management) tool to scan/restore the health of the windows installation image.
Please share your feedback, do not hesitate to contact me for further assistance, I will welcome all the questions you may have.

@SalmanAhmed bad news 😞
After the Install was completed my Computer restarted and configured the Update (Duration 10 Minutes)
After Welcomescreen Windows gives me following Message:
"Windows Update was not installed"
Again Errorcode: 0x80070020
Available Disc-Space: 81GB
I´ve also checked the system requirements - everything should Work.
Even a reset of Windows and delete all Updates -> failed - i cant get it 😞

@SalmanAhmed Thanks for your help but: Again it failed to Install the Update with Errorcode: 0x80242016
After Download, and installing the Update (Duration 60 Minutes) ive had to restart my Computer, after that Windows was configuring the Computer and lead me to my Desktop, i was not able to enter "Startmenu" or "Settings" so i restarted my Computer again -> everything went fine but the Update still isnt installed and Windows asked to Download the Update again 😞

@SickPhil Hi
I suggest you download the media creation tool and perform an in-place update to the latest version.
Search in your language, good luck.

I hope this will end your problem, but the drive will be formatted and your personal files deleted.
Please write what you think?
Start fresh with a clean installation of Windows 10 (microsoft.com)

All programs installed from the Microsoft store you will install very quickly - they have synchronization with your Microsoft account.
Make copies of your personal files to an external drive
Your configuration has long been faulty, so removing and reinstalling is a valid suggestion
