Windows Update Error Codes
Having issues using Windows Update? Windows Update is infamous for its cryptic error codes. This list of error codes (also known as HRESULTs) and their associated description message might help you to figure out what’s going on. With the exception of the Legacy Update errors, these are the original error messages written by Microsoft. If you can’t find an error listed here, try looking up the error code at hresult.info.
Trying to get Windows Update working on an old version of Windows? You’ll need Legacy Update.

|---|---|
| Code | Description |
| 00200017 | A subset of the job's files transferred successfully before the IBackgroundCopyJob::Complete method was called. Those that were not complete were deleted. |
| 0020001A | Unable to delete all temporary files associated with the job. |
| 00200055 | The configuration preference has been saved successfully, but the preference will not be used because a configured Group Policy setting overrides the preference. |
| 80200001 | The requested job was not found. |
| 80200002 | The requested action is not allowed in the current job state. |
| 80200003 | The job must contain one or more files before you can resume the job. |
| 80200004 | File information is not available because the error is not associated with a local or remote file. |
| 80200005 | Protocol information is not available because the error is not associated with the specified transfer protocol. |
| 8020000D | The destination file system volume, specified in the local file name, is locked. |
| 8020000E | The destination volume, specified in the local file name, has changed. For example, the original floppy disk has been replaced with a different floppy disk. |

| 80200010 | The network adapter is inactive or disconnected. All jobs are placed in the BG_JOB_STATE_TRANSIENT_ERROR state. |
| 80200011 | The server did not return the file size. BITS only transfers static content and requires the HTTP server to return the Content-Length header. The transfer request fails if the URL points to dynamic content. |
| 80200012 | The server does not support the HTTP/1.1 protocol. |
| 80200013 | The server does not support the Content-Range header. Typically, you receive this error when you try to download dynamic content. You can also receive this error if an intermediate proxy is removing the Content-Range or Content-Length header. |
| 80200014 | Remote use of BITS is not supported. For more information, see Users and Network Connections. |
| 80200015 | The network drive mapping for the local file is different for the current owner than for the previous owner. |

| 80200019 | The HTTP proxy bypass list is too long. The list must not exceed 32 KB. |
| 8020001C | You cannot add more than one file to an upload job. |
| 8020001D | The contents of the local file changed after the transfer process began. The contents of the local file cannot change after the transfer process begins on an upload or upload-reply job. |
| 80200020 | The size of the upload file exceeds the maximum allowed upload size specified on the server. |
| 80200021 | The specified string is too long. |
| 80200022 | The client and server were unable to negotiate a protocol to use for the upload job. |
| 80200023 | Scripting or execute permissions are enabled on the IIS virtual directory associated with the job. To upload files to the virtual directory, disable the scripting and execute permissions on the virtual directory. |
| 80200025 | The user name cannot exceed 300 characters. |
| 80200026 | The password cannot exceed 65535 characters. |
| 80200027 | The specified authentication target is not valid. |

| 8020002C | The list of byte ranges contains overlapping or duplicate ranges, which are not supported. |

| 80200045 | A Universal Plug and Play (UPnP) error has occurred. Please check your Internet Gateway Device. |
| 80200047 | Peer-caching is disabled. |
| 80200048 | The cache record is in use and cannot be changed or deleted. Try again after a few seconds. |
| 80200049 | The job count for the user has exceeded the per user job limit set by the MaxJobsPerUser Group Policy setting. |
| 80200050 | The job count for the computer has exceeded the per computer job limit set by the MaxJobsPerMachine Group Policy setting. |
| 80200051 | The file count for the job has exceeded the per job file limit set by the MaxFilesPerJob Group Policy setting. |
| 80200052 | The range count for the file has exceeded the per file range limit set by the MaxRangesPerFile Group Policy setting. |
| 80200053 | The application requested data from a website, but the response was not valid. For details, use Event Viewer to view the Application Logs\Microsoft\Windows\Bits-client\Operational log. |

| 80190190 | The server could not process the transfer request because the syntax of the remote file name is invalid. |
| 80190191 | The user does not have permission to access the remote file. The requested resource requires user authentication. |
| 80190194 | The requested URL does not exist on the server. In IIS 7, this error can indicate that BITS uploads are not enabled on the virtual directory (vdir) on the server, or that the upload size exceeds the maximum upload limit. |
| 80190197 | The user does not have permission to access the proxy. The proxy requires user authentication. |
| 8019019E | The server cannot process the transfer request. The Uniform Resource Identifier (URI) in the remote file name is longer than the server can interpret. |
| 801901F5 | The server does not support the functionality required to fulfill the request. In IIS 6, this error indicates that BITS uploads are not enabled on the virtual directory (vdir) on the server. |
| 801901F7 | The service is temporarily overloaded and cannot process the request. Resume the job at a later time. |
| 801901F8 | The transfer request timed out while waiting for a gateway. Resume the job at a later time. |
| 801901F9 | The server does not support the HTTP protocol version specified in the remote file name. |
