Every time i attempt to install windows 10 on my computer it comes up with this error code through windows update its Code 80246010 this happened after installing it previously but then when i restarted my computer it hanged and ever since then i keep receiving the same error code over and over again. at the moment i am trying to use the media creation tool to install windows 10 but i don't know if that will help. Any ideas?

I hate to post again, but I have no knowledge of how to fix this, and I want to make sure somebody can help me with this.
Try this:
1) Access this file location C:WindowsSoftwareDistributionDownload and delete everything there. (Note delete only content found there and not the Download folder itself)
2) Open CMD (command prompt) with run as administrator (admin privileges) and run this command: wuauclt.exe /updatenow

Hello,
I've had the same problems with my upgrade, and although I actually decided I'd had enough from Windows 10 and rolled back to Windows 8.1 -
I do have a solution for you...
The error codes you gave us relate to Windows Update failing to initialize its download catalog, so the following actions should fix that problem...
1) Access this file location C:WindowsSoftwareDistributionDownload and delete everything there. (Note delete only content found there and not the Download folder itself)
2) *RESTART YOUR COMPUTER*
3) Now run: wuauclt.exe /updatenow in Command Prompt - Be sure to run this Command Prompt at Administrator level.
If this does not work, let us know, and we may be able to provide other suggestions to solve the problem.
Soooo.... I did this, and it said something like "Your Windows 10 Update is ready" and so I clicked the restart now button below it. But when I restarted, it was still Windows 8.1. Thoughts? To be fair, this is further than I had gotten before. Normally there was an error downloading.Hello,
