I am presently at version 20H2 OS build 19042.388.   KB4568831  is failling to install, it just loops from installing to downloading back to downloading. The following is logger in event viewer

Error Installation Failure: Windows failed to install the following update with error 0x8024200D: 2020-07 Cumulative Update Preview for Windows 10 Version 20H2 for x64-based Systems (KB4568831).

I have ran SFC and DISM with no errors. Deleted files in c:windows\softwaredistribution\downloads with no help.  Any ideas

    Two questions George, are you an insider and were you offered this update?

    The fact Don is an Insider seems to be irrelevant to this situation since it is being offered, prior to approval, to non-insiders..

    The Microsoft lawyers seem to have approved of this but I think they made a mistake.

    Hi there DonS49, I'm given to understand that this update is for Insiders only to test before release and not meant for the non members?

    I have not installed it to my system awaiting further advice from Microsoft as to it's suitability?

    Cheers

    George
