    OK, so just for my benefit... are we clean installing with the "Do not get updates at this time thingy" checked - or are updates being checked for at installlation?
    When do I have the opportunity to check stuff? I don't remember seeing it.

    I'll fire up a VM and see - can't recall off-hand (just remember always turning that off as it sometimes breaks the installation - it's probably a driver check - off the top of my head)

    I am currently on Windows 10 Build 1703 Version 15063.0 following an in-place upgrade. Every time I try to Check for Updates on Windows 10, I get the error 0x80240439. I have spoken to 5 of the Microsoft team now, and I've done two repair installs, one clean install, and two in-place upgrades. Every time, the issue has persisted. At one point, it let me update, but after a restart and another "Check for Updates" the error started again. I have tried manually installing the windows updates, but an unexpected error doesn't allow me to. I've done sfc /scannow numberous times, reset the Windows Update Components several times and started services via an elevated command prompt until it has driven me insane. The last member of the Microsoft team I spoke to suggested I buy the Assure Plan for £95 to get a higher technician on the case, which I am not doing. Can someone please give me any advice on how to proceed? I have exhausted my options.Original post here: Windows Update Error 0x80240439 - Windows 10 Forums
    I was too facing same problem. Do you have antivirus installed? If so, disable it and then try to update. Simple fix, worked for me.

    Thanks for the suggestion, but that's the very first thing I tried xD

    Yep you are correct - it's not there...

    I must be losing it.. (or it realized no network and hid it...)

    Well, level 2 technician said it was a compatibility issue between the Creators Update and my Gigabyte motherboard (GA-H81M-DS2V)... and he was right! I did a final clean install of the Anniversary Update and everything is now working fine. I don't know if Gigabyte will ever release working drivers for Creators Update, but as long as everything is fine, so am I. Thanks to everyone who took time out of their day to help me, it's really reassuring to know that there's a community I can ask for help whenever I need it.

    Question for @Superfly.

    Can the set command,

    Set-ExecutionPolicy RemoteSigned

    be added to the script as first command or does it need to be run separately for any reason. Additionally should something be run after the wureset.zip script to undo this "Set" command for security reasons.

    So many posts on Updates failing this could be very handy and I will always note origin. Thanks for posting. Let us know about set command and the undo.

    The execution policy is intened to protect against scripts being run - thus it won't execute a policy change from within a script if the restriction to run scripts are in place. It will have to be set in the PS admin console:

    Set-ExecutionPolicy RemoteSigned CurrentUser

    after which it can be reset back to default::

    Set-ExecutionPolicy Restricted CurrentUser
    Set-ExecutionPolicy Restricted LocalMachine
