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.

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.
