Issue with the update of WIndwos 11 insider preview

  • Hello,

    Please run Windows Update troubleshooter from Settings app > System > Troubleshoot > Additional troubleshooters. See if it works.

    If that doesn't work, try this:

    Open administrative Command Prompt and type following commands one-by-one followed by Enter key.

    net stop wuauserv
    net stop cryptSvc
    net stop bits
    net stop msiserver
    Ren C:\Windows\SoftwareDistribution SoftwareDistribution.old
    Ren C:\Windows\System32\catroot2 Catroot2.old
    net start wuauserv
    net start cryptSvc
    net start bits
    net start msiserver

    Close Command Prompt and see if Windows Updates works then.

    Let us know if this helps!
