I have downloaded 2020-11 Cumulative Update Preview for Windows 10 Version 20H2 for x64-based Systems (KB4586853) and successfully installed via windows update. Goes well.

But after restart the PC KB4586853 starts download again and error occurs Download error - 0x80070002.

"There were problems downloading some updates, but we'll try again later. If you keep seeing this, try searching the web or contacting support for help. This error code might help: (0x80070002)"

  • Windows Update Troubleshooter could not fix that.
  • Several time restart also could not fix.

Now how do I gonna fix that?

    I just went to Microsoft Update Catalog, downloaded the file that was giving me the error http://download.windowsupdate.com/d/msdownload/update/software/secu/2021/08/windows10.0-kb5005033-x64\_ebab415d7a65f0b33f93e9a30875d74baa8930a7.msu

    Doubleclicked, installed, rebooted and it was all good.
