    This worked for me...

    1. Access this file location C:\Windows\SoftwareDistribution\Downloadand delete everything there. (Note delete only content found there and not the Download folder itself)
    2. Open CMD (command prompt) with run as administrator (admin privileges) and run this command: wuauclt.exe /updatenow

    The Update Window should pop-up with downloading Windows 10 again, and if your lucky it will be the complete kit this time.

    What I mean by that is that the error is still there .. I still get the same issue once I rerun everything.   I really want to get past this error as all my other pc's have installed 10 just fine.
