    Hi....

    Thank you for your quick response... I've been trying to update my Windows 10 computers, it seems forever... I always get the error messages, "Unable to Update"... I've tried turning off my virus software and any software that might be running, which did not help.  This is really troublesome, and annoying..

    The error codes I most recently received (Today) is:

    There were some problems installing updates, but we'll try again later. If you keep seeing this and want to search the web or contact support for information, this may help: (0x800f0922)

    Some update files are missing or have problems. We'll try to download the update again later. Error code: (0x80070003)

                                                                                                                                     Thank you

    You may check these out about your errors:

    Also could you use disk management and show the partitions layout of your Windows disk ?

    Good evening

    I have issue rolling back to windows 2004, the 20h2 version is not very stable for me.

    I installed the 20h2 on 25.10.2020 and i'm still in the 10 days to go back to the previous version but i cannot get back.

    do someone else have the same issue, i put in att the screen shot from my update history and screen shot from recovery where you can see that Get started button is locked.

    thanks
