Windows 8.1 Update Error Code: 0x80240031

same here

I am getting error code 0x80240031 during download of Windows 8.1 for 50% of Downloading. Can anybody help me fix this?

Please uninstall iTunes and try again.

OK, here is how this got resolved for me on my PC only (not touch screen).

uninstalled Zone Alarm (currently this is not compatible with Windows 8.1)

restart PC

Press Windows key + R

Type: WSreset.exe (enter)

then refreshed my PC by pressing Windows key + C

go to Settings

Change PC Settings (at bottom right)

in General

Refresh your PC without affecting your files (for some this could be in Update and Recovery, then goto recovery)

click on Get Started, follow screen instructions to refresh your PC

restart PC

Go to windows stores and start update for 8.1 or go to Microsoft website and start downloading windows 8.1

Hope this method works for you.

Good Luck :-)

Sent. please let me know... Looks like it might be a file size limitation or something.
