Hi Darrell. :welcome:

Did you also try Identify and repair network problems?
If you don't know where it is: open control panel, in its search box type iden and you should find it.

Thanks for the reply and the advice, i make a mistake and typed the wrong error code leaving off the last letter to that code . The real update error code is 8024200d​ .

Try this command from an elevated command prompt:

DISM.exe /Online /Cleanup-image /Restorehealth

It should last about 15-60 minutes.
If it shouldn't work, try without firewall (if it's not MS's).

(I saw you have already done it!)
