Hello, I am in the beta channel, and unable to update Windows. I get the error 0x800f0806, and Windows does not start downloading. I tried to launch the sfc /scannow command, but nothing happened. I am running the 22622.436 build, version 22H2. Thanks for your help,

Hello babelmansour,
If you encounter the 0x800f0806 error when trying to download or install Windows 22H2, you can follow the steps below to fix the error.
However, the windows update error 0x800f0806 can appear due to the following:
Disabled Service Requirements
System File Corruption
Windows Registry
File corruption
.NET Framework 3.5 is disabled
Run built-in Windows Update Troubleshooter:
Repair Corrupted System Files:
SFC /scannow
Note: You will have to wait until the process is complete:
If you get an error message retaining corrupted files, then use the following commands one by one,
DISM /Online /Cleanup-Image /CheckHealth
DISM /Online /Cleanup-Image /ScanHealth
DISM /Online /Cleanup-Image /RestoreHealth
Clean Windows Update download path:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\WindowsUpdate
Enable .NET Framework 3.5:
Thus, I hope the above fixes help you to fix the Windows Update 0x800f0806 error, and you can update windows without facing any issues.

Thanks much for your answer and fixes. I tried the first one, here is what I have in the registry. What surprises me is that I am able to download updates till 22621 but not beyond (22623). I tried two times to install the ISO version on Microsoft websites (which is 22621) hoping the PC would update and it did not work.
Have a nice day
