Windows 8.1 Update Error Code: 0x80240031

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

Same problem

I'm having this problem as well but I don't even get to start downloading anything. It just says 0% then 'Something happened' along with the error 0x80240031

Has anyone tried installing this update after doing a reset of Windows 8?

there is not particular solution to fix this error sadly . However, you can try out multiple things to check if any of these works !!

Here is an article recommending things to try out in such scenario:
