simple guide stolen from reddit :

 

  1. Delete everything out of C:\Windows\SoftwareDistribution\Download

  2. In Windows Updates, Click to search for updates, leave the window open but dont hit search yet

  3. Open command prompt as Admin and type "wuauclt.exe /updatenow" but DONT HIT ENTER

  4. In Windows Update, Click to search

  5. While it is searching hit enter on the command prompt

  6. You're now downloading W10

 

Worked for me. I'm now downloading/installing stuff. I'll get back to you guys in a bit if I get Windows 10 up and running.

COMIC SANS

It's completely blown out of proportion. Also if you're the least bit worried about data gathering then you should go live in a cave a 1000Km from the nearest establishment simply because every device and every entity gathers information these days. In the current era privacy is just fallacy and nothing more.

You'll have the 80240020 error man, unless the download finishes AFTER midnight.

That's it, gonna go play cs:go, maybe headshots will alleviate the anger!

Then I'm going to go watch School Days - the complete series.

It's not the download, it's the failure that I'm mad about.  

I'm downloading it for like the third time!

My laptop is ready, but my desktop has to wait because I needed to do a repair install a few weeks ago. That's frustrating lol.
