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.

Hi, thank you for the link, I was lucky and my media creation tool has finally run and downloaded the windows 10 os build 1709 I think it worked after I have already updated windows to build 1709 through the windows update, the tool look it works only when the os build is already installed and licensed the iso size was 3.5 Gb for the x64 bit Windows 10 pro, I noted from your link the iso for x64 is 4.4 Gb this must contains both home and pro version.

thank you very much for your help.
