Hello, asking for assistance please,

Since performing the update last year from Windows 10 to 11 everything was performing perfect. However, Since February I cannot seem to install this pending update as it constant reads 'Install error - 0x80070002'.
Could it be due to bad OS files? Maybe because my OS was initially Windows 10 and further updates will no longer work on 11?

Below are my OS specs.

Below is the update that I cannot install.

I have performed the following:
1. Deleted folder: '$WinREAgent'

2. Ran following scripts:
net stop bits
net stop wuauserv
net stop appidsvc
net stop cryptsvc
rmdir %systemroot%\SoftwareDistribution /S /Q
rmdir %systemroot%\system32\catroot2 /S /Q
regsvr32.exe /s atl.dll
regsvr32.exe /s urlmon.dll
regsvr32.exe /s mshtml.dll
netsh winsock reset
netsh winsock reset proxy
net start bits
net start wuauserv
net start appidsvc
net start cryptsvc
sfc /scannow
DISM /Online /Cleanup-Image /CheckHealth
DISM /Online /Cleanup-Image /ScanHealth
DISM /Online /Cleanup-Image /RestoreHealth
chkdsk /f

Is there anything else I could please try with your assistance?
Thank you!

Hello @cuffy and welcome to ElevenForum. :-)


Just had someone with the same problem earlier today.



Whenever Windows is acting weird... run these commands...

Open a command prompt as Admin, and run... sfc /scannow <----- System File Checker

IF... SFC finds any errors (fixed or not fixed), run this command next... Dism /Online /Cleanup-Image /RestoreHealth



If you still can't get the update to work, see this other topic.

Thank you for helping me.

The tutorial "Repair Install Windows 11 with an In-place Upgrade" worked.
However, I had to download the Windows 11 ISO file and use that not the USB type setup as this had 'Keep personal files and apps' greyed out.

Thanks again!

My current build after successfully installing the recent update.

Good job. :-)

Now that things are working properly.... you should make a full backup, so if there are any future problems you will be able to just restore the backup.
