Windows Technical Preview 10.0.9926 - Windows Update error 0x80070057

[RowlandoGloom]

Hi,

 

Just a quick bit of advice for people using the latest TP build (9926) (Friday January 23) receiving the following Windows Update error 0x80070057 using WSUS.

 

Create a new .reg file and add the following (note the strange space at the end of the "WindowsUpdate" keys which you will need to remove when you create the .reg file):

 

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

 

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\WindowsUpdate\UX]

"IsConvergedUpdateStackEnabled"=dword:00000000

 

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\WindowsUpdate\UX\Settings]

"UxOption"=dword:00000000

 

I came across this error this morning and the resolution was on the following TechNet forum:

Hey, i might be a little late for this reply but I'm giving the method which worked for me. It might help other people also, that's why.

 

Change the Decimal Symbol Setting

 

The problem could occur if the decimal symbol is not set to “.“(dot). This situation is common in languages other than English(United States).

1) Follow the path Control Panel (View by Category)> Clock, Language, and Region.

 

2) Click Region and Language.

 

3) Click Formats, then click Additional settings.

 

4) In the Decimal symbol field, type . (dot) and then click OK two times.

 

5) Restart your computer after the change.

 

There are a few other methods that I referred to to fix Windows Update Error 0x80070057. I would urge you to have a look.This answer from Microsoft will help too.
