Error 0x8024201C on WSUS clients trying to upgrade from Windows 10 1607 to 1703

Question
-
Hi,
We recently approved Dynamic Upgrade to Windows 10 1703 on our fully-patched (including KB3095113 and KB3159706) WSUS server running Windows Server 2012 R2. The update files were downloaded, and several computers on our network tried to install the update, without success. Our WSUS servers seem to be healthy (no error logged).
Since we got issues with KB3159706 some months ago, I checked encryption status in the SUS DB, and it seems to be OK:
USE SUSDB SELECT * FROM tbFile WHERE (FileName LIKE '%15063%' AND (IsEncrypted = 0 OR IsSecure = 0 OR DecryptionKey IS NULL))
The query returns nothing, which is fine.
Here is the end of the WindowsUpdate.log of one of the failing machines. The last line shows the only error I could find.

I've been looking for a fix for two days and now I'm stuck. Does anyone have any clue about how to fix this ?

Hi Marin Bernard,
1. Do you install KB3095113 and KB3159706(with manual step) before syncing and downloading win10 1703 upgrade? If not, we need to re-download the upgrade;
2. Please check if the .esd is added to the WSUS site MIME type;
3. According to your windows update log, you are using SSL for the WSUS server, please check the "Content" in WSUS site, ensure the Content not requires SSL;
4. Right click the upgrade file> File Information, check the location of the upgrade file, then check Content folder, ensure the files are actually exits.
Best Regards,
Anne

Hi Anne,
Sorry for the late answer.
- Yes, both updates were installed with all manual steps.
- The .esd MIME type is present in IIS for the WSUS website.
- The "Content" folder does not require SSL. Updates are downloaded correctly by all computers.
- The upgrade file is present in the content store.
Since my post, I noticed that the update was progressively being deployed on several computers. Some days later, I discovered that Microsoft decided to deploy the update in several waves to cope with hardware compatibility issues.
A couple of weeks later, most computers applied the update properly, including several of those which previously failed to do so. As of now, the update is still failing on a bunch of computers, but they are rather special machines: mine, for example, embeds a Supermicro server board.
I've came to the conclusion that the error code is related to some kind of installation restriction managed by Microsoft, to stagger the update process. Could you confirm this?
Thanks,
Marin.

What is the error message on the computers failed to upgrade?

Hi Marin Bernard,
Do you running any third-party software, if yes, please turn off them. If the Windows Defender is on, also turn it off temporarily.
