Office Insider - Error Code 30088-28

Insider was working just fine. Then yesterday this error message 30088-28 came up after I tried to download the most recent update. I then tried a restart, then a quick repair, then a full repair. The full repair gave a different error message that 'something went wrong', the consequence being that Office was completely uninstalled. I then reinstalled it, restarted, and tried again to update to Insider - it came right back to the 30088-28 message! 

I urgently need to get back to Insider - can someone please help me?

I have received confirmation from the team that they have resolved this with the latest build, and it looks like several others in this thread have successfully updated today. If you were experiencing this error, please try updating again. If you run into any further issues, please create a new thread and provide details.

    The team believes they have identified the issue and are working on a fix. No firm timeline quite yet, but hopefully by early tomorrow.

    Thank you kindly, Jesse.

    I cannot tell you how feckless we become when dynamic arrays are suddenly unavailable.
