Windows update - error 80240034, how to fix?
I have a PC with Windows 10 x64 Home which fails to install Windows cumulative updates with error code 0x80070002, but if I open the Update History, a different error code is reported there, 0x80240034. I have tried deleting \Windows\SoftwareDistribution folder, but it doesn't help - after I start Windows Update service again, the update runs for a while (obviously re-downloading files I have deleted), then fails again with the same error. I also performed a clean boot , but it didn't change anything. Does anyone know what this error code means and what possible actions I could take to fix it?
