Windows-10When I have tried to update Windows 10 (build 9926) to the latest build, I got following error:

"There were some problems installing updates, but we'll try again later. If you keep seeing this and want to search the web or contact support for information, this may help - (0x80246017)"

Solution

  • Open regedit (ctrl + r -> regedit.exe)
  • Go to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\WindowsSelfHost\Applicability
  • Delete ThresholdInternal value
  • Delete ThresholdOptedIn value
  • Set ThresholdRiskLevel  to low
  • Set BranchName to fbl_awesome1501
  • Try to update again

Solution 2

Download this reg file and execute it.

Here is reg file listing:

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\WindowsSelfHost\Applicability]
"BranchName"="FBL_AWESOME1501"
"ThresholdRiskLevel"="low"
"ThresholdOptedin"=-
"ThresholdInternal"=-
