Error Code: 0x80072f76 0x20017. Windows media creation tool.

Anonymous

I've disabled the defender and other software for malware and virus protection and tried moving the executable to desktop and then launching it. I don't have an idea whats wrong with it! Any help is much appreciated.

I was able to solve it on a 2016 Lenovo laptop by disabling antivirus until next reboot and pointing my DNSs to Google Ones.

Hope this helps someone else as well.

For me, it wasn't working at first. But then I noticed the radio button was checked for a different option. I changed it to: "Append primary and connection specific DNS suffixes".

I tried all the steps here, and at first I couldn't get it working. In the end I had avast stopped and compability mode activated for windows 7. Wasn't enough. But then I changed the dns server to 9.9.9.9 (8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4 didn't work) using these instructions https://www.windowscentral.com/how-change-your-pcs-dns-settings-windows-10

then it started working.
