How can I fix error 0x80072f76?

Did you receive the error 0x80072f76 when you tried to update Windows 10 to version 2004?

That probably means that the Media Creation Tool lacks the permission to run.

Right-click on the Media Creation Tool.exe and select Properties. Next, click on General and at the bottom, and select Unblock. Press Apply, then OK.

For any other Windows 10 update errors, you can troubleshoot it at our Windows Update Errors Hub.
