    I've just encountered this error myself. I'm also having an issue where my computer with Windows 10 on it causes every other device in the house to run slow until I turn my computer off. Is this a separate issue from the Windows Update error?

    Hi,

    I have successfully upgraded my PC to Windows 10 today. Everything is fine for now (knock on wood) but Windows Update gives me the above error code when checking for updates for first time 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: (0x8024402f) . It starts downloading but after some time it displays this error. Someone experience the same problem?

    Thanks, werty
    I also had this issue on all PCs in my house. Plus I could not see anything in "System/Apps & Feature/Manage Optional Features/Add a feature". The later one because I wanted to add Insider Hub.

    CBS.log showed error: [HRESULT = 0x800f0805 - CBS_E_INVALID_PACKAGE]

    Anyways on my Linksys Router Firewall I had disabled ActiveX. By enabling that everything worked. It took me a week to figure this out. I hope this helps someone. Also if you wish to disable auto-updates then this is one way to do it.

    Hi, i just found a simplest way to fix (0x8024402f) Error
    u just simply have to set windows update like this:

    Go to Advanced Setting >



    Then change Choose how updates are installed settingsto Notify to schedule restart + (uncheck everything under it)



    re-Check update, it must be worked

    I just tried the below with the ActiveX blocked in router settings and it caused a 0x8024402f error. Windows 10 is using ActiveX for there update which caused my 0x8024402f issue. I don't if anything else can cause it.

    Having just experienced this error on my personal system and solved it I will post my solution here. In my opinion there are several different things that could cause this.

    In my case, running windows 10 Enterprise edition and Kaspersky Internet Security. When I manually updated I sometimes saw windows update trying to install an update to windows defender. This stopped before finishing each time and seemed stuck in a loop.

    First thing I did was disable Kaspersky internet security temporarily until next reboot. Then I manually opened up windows defender, enabled it (kaspersky disables this on installation), updated defender, went back to windows update and ran it again. Windows Update installed several more defender updates, and eventually I got the message "Your system is up to date".

    Then I rebooted the system, kaspersky was back up and running. Ran windows update again, it checked for updates and again the message "Your system is up to date" appeared.

    So far everything runs smooth again. Will report back if things change.

    This is my 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: (0x8024402f)"

    I've tried everything mentioned here and in other forums and nothing has worked...

    Any help on this? This is my 3rd reformat for Windows 10 and it's doing the same thing. This is a fresh install. The very 1st time I installed Win10 Enterprise, with the same exact ISO I got from Microsoft, everything was running fine with Windows Update. The only thing different I did this time is that I disconnected the LAN cable from my computer "during" the reinstallation of Windows 10 because I did not want it to auto-download/install device drivers. So the order was:

    1.) Reinstalled Win10 Enterprise x64 without LAN cable plugged.
    2.) Changed the setting in system properties to prevent Windows from auto-installing device drivers.
    3.) Installed all updated device drivers and software.
    4.) The NVIDIA driver needed Internet connection so that it can download Visual C++ Redistributable, so I disabled the "Windows Update" service, plugged in the LAN cable, and went ahead and proceeded with the NVIDIA GPU driver installation.
    5.) Changed the startup type of the Windows Update service back to "Manual" and restarted the computer.
    6.) When I initiate the Windows Update check, it fails with the same 0x8024402f no matter what I do.

    As I've mentioned, this is the 3rd (or even 4th, I can't remember) reformat already with the same exact result. I bet that if I keep the LAN cable connected during the reinstallation, everything will be fine but I don't want to do that because it downloads unnecessary device drivers.
