Update Preview builds error

Check for Preview Builds failing with error 0x80248014
Build 9879
any suggestions?

Hi threeeye,
Let’s make things clear first, your OS should be 9879 build now, right? The thing you want to do is to check the Windows Update not the new build, right?
What’s the regular windows update?
Do you mean the traditional Windows Update application?
For now, I would suggest your run the Windows Update troubleshooter to repair this issue, it would reset windows update settings:
If I misunderstand anything, please feel free to let me know.

    I wan to update from preview build 9841 to 9926 without downloading iso .. is it possible? I cant download gb of iso again my net is so slow .. is it can update?

    Hi Donsreeraj,
    If you don't want to take use of Windows 10 9926 ISO, you may go to PC Settings, Update and recovery, Preview builds and click the Check Now button to go get it now, which also will download a large file.
    For reference:
    January build now available to the Windows Insider Program

  • Failed to Install The New Preview Build. Installation Failure: Windows failed to install the following update with error 0x80246007: FBL_AWESOME1501 9926 Professional.

    Hello,
    I'm having issues upgrading my Windows 10 Technical Preview installation build 9879 to a newer build that's become available late January 23rd.
    I am installing the new upgrade in a Hyper-V virtual machine and get the following error:
    Failed to install the new preview build, please try again later. 0x80246007
    What could be the problem?
    Previously I've had messages that Windows cannot be upgraded on a computer with less than 2 Gbyte of RAM. That's a Hyper-V VM with dynamic memory and I was highly surprised to see this error; never had this before. Had to set 2048 Mbytes as a minimum memory
    for this VM. Now that I have this 80246007 error code.
    When looking up System log, the following error messages are listed multiple times:
    Installation Failure: Windows failed to install the following update with error 0x80246007: FBL_AWESOME1501 9926 Professional.
    The errors are returned for the Event ID 20 by WindowsUpdateClient
    in task category Windows Update Agent..
    I reviewed the HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\WindowsSelfHost\Applicability
    registry key as suggested in Windows
    Insider stuck on build 9841 - "No new preview build was found", and here is what it shows:
    [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\WindowsSelfHost\Applicability]
    "BranchName"="fbl_awesome1501"
    "ThresholdRiskLevel"="low"
    "ThresholdOptedin"=dword:00000001
    Note, when attempting to install the downloaded update from a native boot, installation starts with no errors.
    However, since setup is not supported for a natively booted VHD files, it does not proceed further showing a message that installation on virtual drives is not supported.  
    Looks like Setup is having problems installing in a Hyper-V virtual machine.
    Possibly, some ESD files got corrupted during downloading? Is it possible to remove them and re-download missing files? (I, however, noticed that Windows seems to re-download upgrade files after you restart 9879 and attempt to check for a new build.
    Any clue why installing under VM causes 9926 to fail?
    Thank you in advance.
    Well this is the world we live in And these are the hands we're given...

    Hi,
    According to the error message, this problem seems like update package installation failed during system upgrade.
    You can try to remove ESD file which locate at boot of C drive and upgrade the system again for test.
    On the other hand, make sure the system 9879 installed all Windows pushed updates before system upgrade.

  • Update Operation Fatal Error when installing Technical Preview Build 10041 Upgrade

    I posted this in the Microsoft Community forums and was redirected here.
    Below is the original post (URL: http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/insider/forum/insider_wintp-insider_install/update-operation-fatal-error-when-installing/6eaff1b9-0223-4357-afc8-884382590e82 )
    Hello,
    In trying to perform an upgrade install of the Windows 10 Technical Preview Build 10041 (as is the latest available for direct download as of my writing), I am running into a problem I cannot find mention of anywhere else on the web.
    I fall into two categories with regards to this build: A) Product tester who actually needs to test application performance under Windows 10 on bare metal, B) Semi-crazy techie who loves using (usable) beta software as his primary environment ;)
    so it is rather important to me that I get this working on my machine in some non-virtualized respect. I am reluctant to do a full/fresh install if installation problems are happening, because my Windows 8 product key has been f***ed up from the
    start (likely some random database corruption) and I've had to utilize phone support to get around an "unknown error" the last two times I've had to use it. So, for fear of that key completely crapping out on me, I don't want to move to Win10 unless
    I'm confident it will install and I can stick with it (for better or worse) through the end. Problems within the Preview after I install it I can deal with.
    So, I first tried to install the Preview through the standard Windows Update method. The installer took about 7 hours (but from reading lots of internet discussions, stupidly long install times in that range seem to be a common problem with
    this builds separate from it actually failing). During the reboot between the "Setting up Devices" (Or is it Setting up Drivers? I forget) and "Taking Care of a Few More Things" (Again, possibly paraphrased), for about a split second, underneath
    the Windows logo and throbber, some error like this appeared:
    Fatal Error Performing Update Operation # of ##: ERROR CODE
    It only appeared for a fraction of a second, and I had no chance of reading the precise numbers or error.
    However, the installer then seemed to continue, and went until the main circle was at 100%. As soon as 100% hit, however, the screen went black for something like 30min. Then, I briefly saw "Attempting to recover installation" before "Restoring
    your previous version of Windows." And I was, quite impressively considering how far along that installer was, back in Windows 8.1 completely unharmed.
    I tried again by burning an ISO and doing a disc upgrade install. I let that one run overnight and was asleep for the error, but I was back in Win8.1 in the morning, so I can only assume a similar thing happened there.
    As for my system specs, I'm running on a MacBook Pro 9,1 under Boot Camp. I am upgrading from Windows 8.1.2 Pro with Media Center. I have found other online accounts of people quite successfully installing Windows 10 on Macs, so that isn't the issue.
    Does anyone have any clue as to what this error might have been/be, and how I might fix it? Or at least have it on good authority that a fresh installation would be unaffected (meaning it's software-related)? If not, I can try installing to a VHD,
    which would at least let me product test on bare metal, but wouldn't have the harddrive space to be my daily driver and would probably only get used occasionally.
    Thanks in advance to anyone who can help!
    So far, I have the yet-to-be-tried idea of a clean boot prior to installation.
    If anyone here has any more specific ideas, lemme hear 'em.
    Thanks!

    To the individual who proposed this as an answer to my problem: It's not even applicable. I specifically stated that I was trying to avoid doing a clean installation (at least without knowing more about the problem at hand). An answer saying to do the thing
    you're trying to avoid doing is not an answer. You can see my last reply for the current status of this issue. 6-8 hour blocks of time in which I can't use my computer (as is required to install build 10041) aren't super common for me, but I haven't abandoned
    this thread. There have simply been no more updates. If your motivation as a mod was that you simply don't like there being unanswered threads on this forum, then perhaps you could attempt to contribute rather than arbitrarily marking the first reply as an
    answer.
    I will continue to update this thread as I try new things and get more information.
    Thank you.

  • Preview build update fails with 0x80070003

    Attempting to update the preview build form 9860 yields error 0x80070003.
    How do I update the preview build?

    Here is the link to download the latest (9879) build ISO.
    http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/preview-iso-update?os=win10
    Burn the ISO file to a bootable DVD, and use the DVD to do a clean install.
    Use the Windows7 USB?DVD Download Tool to burn the ISO file. Don't be concern about the words "Windows 7 ". It will work. I use it countless times on various ISO files.

  • About the error: "The account is not authorized to login from this station" when you access NAS devices from Windows 10 Technical Preview (build 9926)

    Scenario:
    With the release of Windows 10 Technical Preview (build 9926), some users may encounter an error message of “The account is not authorized to login from this station” when trying to access remote files saved in NAS storage. In
    addition, the following error log may also be found via Event Viewer:
    Rejected an insecure guest logon.
    This event indicates that the server attempted to log the user on as an unauthenticated guest but was denied by the client. Guest logons do not support standard security features such as signing and encryption. As a result,
    guest logons are vulnerable to man-in-the-middle attacks that can expose sensitive data on the network. Windows disables insecure guest logons by default. Microsoft does not recommend enabling insecure guest logons.
    Background:
    The error message is due to a change we made in Windows 10 Technical Preview (build 9926) which is related to security and remote file access that may affect you.
    Previously, remote file access includes a way of connecting to a file server without a username and password, which was termed as “guest access”.
    With guest access authentication, the user does not need to send a user name or password.
    The security change is intended to address a weakness when using guest access.  While the server may be fine not distinguishing among clients for files (and, you can imagine in the home scenario that it doesn’t
    matter to you which of your family members is looking at the shared folder of pictures from your last vacation), this can actually put you at risk elsewhere.  Without an account and password, the client doesn’t end up with a secure connection to the server. 
    A malicious server can put itself in the middle (also known as the Man-In-The-Middle attack), and trick the client into sending files or accepting malicious data.  This is not necessarily a big concern in your home, but can be an issue when you take your
    laptop to your local coffee shop and someone there is lurking, ready to compromise your automatic connections to a server that you can’t verify.  Or when your child goes back to the dorm at the university. The change we made removes the ability to connect
    to NAS devices with guest access, but the error message which is shown in build 9926 does not clearly explain what happened. We are working on a better experience for the final product which will help people who are in this situation. 
    As a Windows Insider you’re seeing our work in progress; we’re sorry for any inconvenience it may have caused.
    Suggestion:
    You may see some workarounds (eg. making a registry change restores your ability to connect with guest access).
    We do NOT recommend making that change as it leaves you vulnerable to the kinds of attacks this change was meant to protect you from.
    The recommended solution is to add an explicit account and password on your NAS device, and use that for the connections.  It is a one-time inconvenience,
    but the long term benefits are worthwhile.  If you are having trouble configuring your system, send us your feedback via the Feedback App and post your information here so we can document additional affected scenarios.

  • Windows10 tech preview build 10041 doesn't get updated for some reason

    is there a way to force an update? I believe there were a couple of updates , but for some reason my build didn't get updated
    tx,
    D

    Hi,
    At least, we have preview build 10049 now, if you want to experience it, then you can change the install speed to "fast" in Settings\Update&Recovery\Windows Update\Advanced Options. If you don't want to experience it, then leave the setting
    in "Slow". If you've already set to fast and didn't get any updates, then pleaes check the following registry:
    Open regedit.exe
    Navigate to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\WindowsSelfHost\Applicability
    Ensure the following values exist:
            {value name}, {value type}, {value data}
    BranchName, REG_SZ, fbl_impressive
    ThresholdOptedin, REG_DWORD, 1
    ThresholdRiskLevel, REG_SZ, low
    Delete all other values
    Open Settings
    > Update & recovery > Windows Update
    Tap or click Check
    for updates
    System also has a built-in troubleshooter, launch control panel\All control panel items\Troubleshooting\System and Security\Windows Update, run this troubleshooter.

  • Getting error 0x80248008 updating from build 9860 to 9879

    I have build 9860, and I'm trying to update to the newer build:
    In the Preview Builds UI, I click Install now
    Within about 5 seconds it fails and displays the message "Failed to install the new preview build, please try again later. 0x80248008" (screenshot below).
    Rebooting doesn't help. Any suggestion about what to try to fix this?
    thanks!

    Assuming that you have all windows updates installed.....
    Would you care to do a clean install by downloading build 9879 Enterprise ISO, burn it to a bootable DVD or Flash Drive and then install ? Enterprise version has everything in a non- enterprise version plus a few extra features geared towards business
    people. You don't have to use them at all.
    I am using it now ...... in my home computer.
    If that is acceptable, here are the links :

  • [Forum FAQ] How to show Windows Update in Control Panel in Clean Installation of Windows 10 Technical Preview Build 9926

    Scenario
    If you performed a clean installation of the new Windows 10 Technical Preview Build 9926, you would find Windows Update is only available in
    Settings and is hidden in Control Panel by default. However, Windows Update is still available in Control Panel if it is an upgrade version of Windows 10 Technical Preview Build 9926.
    Solution
    After the comparison of the two different version, the differences is the following registry:
    HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\WindowsUpdate\UX\IsConvergedUpdateStackEnabled
    In clean installation version:
    In upgrade version:
    The method to make Windows Update show in Control Panel in the clean installation of Windows 10 Technical Preview Build 9926:
    Edit the REG_DWORD value of IsConvergedUpdateStackEnabled from 1 to 0.
    Applies to
    Clean installation of Windows 10 Technical Preview Build 9926
    Please click to vote if the post helps you. This can be beneficial to other community members reading the thread.

    We’ve seen a few forum posts talking about changing registry keys to alter the update experience we shipped in Technical Preview build 9926. There are a couple of reasons that we don’t recommend doing things like that.
    First, the default experience is what we’ve tested across not just the Windows 10 team, but across all of Microsoft before we released it to you. That doesn’t mean that you won’t still find bugs, but it’s definitely the code that’s been most thoroughly
    tested. Changing things back to older versions is risky because the combination of those old settings with the rest of Windows 10 is not something that’s been validated or supported, so we can’t predict the side effects. It’s possible that changing registry
    settings related to update could cause a machine to no longer be able to get new updates or Technical Preview builds.
    The other reason to avoid changing the default update experience is that a lot of update-related code is actually being re-written in order to scale across the variety of different device types Windows 10 will support. Since Technical Previews are
    a work-in-progress, some code that may still be in build 9926 won’t actually ship in the final version of Windows 10 that we provide to all our customers, so trying to re-enable that code temporarily won’t provide a way to accurately assess Windows 10’s update
    capabilities.
    We want to hear your feedback! We’re sharing Technical Preview releases early so we can understand exactly how customers are using our software and make sure we are designing our experiences to address those scenarios. The more
    specific the feedback, the more helpful it is for us – saying “I hate the new Windows Update UI” isn’t very useful, but when we see “I need to be able to tell Windows Update to grab updates from WU itself and not from my internal corporate server, so the new
    Windows Update UI is painful for me”, we can actually understand what changes we could make to solve those specific problems. We can’t promise to fix everything that everyone asks for – and sometimes what one customer wants is exactly what another customer
    doesn’t want – but the more you can help us understand why you want something changed, the better we can try to meet those needs.
    Thanks for listening, and we look forward to hearing your responses.

  • Windows Technical Preview Build 9926 update

    Hi,
    I am trying to update my Windows 10 TP installation and it seems that it fails to download.  I am behind a proxy server in the office with no way around it.  Windows Update fails with error 0x80072ee2.  What I have picked up is that I can
    get the update list if I set a proxy server in BITS using "bitsadmin /util /setieproxy localsystem proxy1:port "bypass list".  However bits fails to download the updates returning either Error or Transient_Error.  Can you please assist
    with this issue?
    Regards,
    Riaan
    EDIT: I set proxy settings of each bits download job to PRECONFIG and the updates downloaded and installed.

    Hi,
    Did you set the proxy server via IE? Do you mean that the Windows Update Client ignore the proxy settings? To make Windows Update use the proxy setting, please execute the following command from cmd
    Netsh winhttp import proxy source=ie
    You can refer to this following KB for "how Windows Update finds proxy settings"
    How the Windows Update client determines which proxy server to use to connect to the Windows Update Web site

    Hey ,
    I hope someone can help.. been trying to upgrade from 9841 to 9860 for the last few days.. and I cant seem to get the preview build download part to work..
    Seems like "80246017 Flight Settings Failure Content Download Error: Download failed" is the main error (more logs below)
    And it doesn't seem like(from other blog posts) there are any manual downloads (ISO, .EXE's) so I'm stuck.
    I know I could possibly do a full "clean" re-install of 9841 and then upgrade to 9860 but I really want to find out why its not working..

    Hi,
    I had this same issue and tried many things to fix it. I finally found a fix with a small registry edit.
    Open command prompt under admin and follow these steps (which I found here:

    reg add "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\WindowsSelfHost\Applicability" /v "BranchName" /d "fbl_release" /t REG_SZ
    /f
    reg add "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\WindowsSelfHost\Applicability" /v "ThresholdRiskLevel" /d "low" /t REG_SZ /f
    reg delete "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\WindowsSelfHost\Applicability" /v "ThresholdInternal" /f
    reg delete "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\WindowsSelfHost\Applicability" /v "ThresholdOptedIn" /f
    After you have done that open regedit and navigate to Computer\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\WindowsSelfHost\Applicability
    If there is a folder called "recovered from" delete it. Then open up Windows Update in PC settings and go to preview builds and click Check Now
    This worked for me. Hopes it works for you to.
