How to Fix Windows 24H2 Update Error 0x800F0922 

Now that we know what might cause error 0x800F0922 let's look at the solutions. We will begin with some easy fixes and then go to more advanced troubleshooting steps.

1. Fix 1. Check Internet Connection
2. Fix 2. Extend System-Reserved Partition
3. Fix 3. Run Windows Update Troubleshooter

Fix 1. Check Internet Connection

A fine and stable internet connection is always of prime importance for any successful Windows Update. Here is how to check if it works well:

• Check the connection: Open up your Internet browser and access any website. If the pages come up slowly or don't appear, this could be the reason for the update not working.
• Restart your router: This often rectifies the problem. Unplug your router, wait 30 seconds, and plug it in again. Let it boot for a couple of minutes, and then try updating again.
• Turn off VPNs and proxies: These tools can protect important data from hackers, but sometimes, they interfere with Windows Update's normal operation. For this reason, briefly disabling them may resolve your problem.
• Wired Connection: Better than using WiFi, connect physically by Ethernet cable to your router. Wired is generally much faster and more stable than wireless connections.

Fix 2. Extend System-Reserved Partition

Insufficient space in the System Reserved Partition may be the reason you are getting a 0x800F0922 error when you check for a Windows update. That small partition is well needed for the start-up sequence of your computer, and if it lacks enough space, an update will not install. You may want to consider using a third-party tool like EaseUS Partition Master Professional to resize this partition.

It is a lightweight disk management utility designed to perform all challenging drive partition tasks efficiently. You can resize, move, merge, and create partitions without data loss. Its ease of design allows even nontechnical users to easily extend the System Reserved Partition. This will create space for a Windows update that will fix the 0x800F0922 error.

Step 1. Locate the Target Partition.

Go to Partition Manager, locate the target partition and select "Resize/Move".

Step 2. Extend the Target Partition.

Drag the partition panel rightward or leftward to add the unallocated space into your current partition, or you can click click "fill in all unallocated" to allocate all space to the target partition. Then, click "OK" to confirm.

Extra Option: Get Space from Another Drive

If there is not enough unallocated space on your disk, right-click on a big partition with enough free space, select "Allocate space".

Then select the target partition that you want to extend at the allocate space to column.

Step 3. Execute Operations to Extend Partition.

Drag the dots of the target partition into the unallocated space and click "OK".

Then Click the "Execute Task" button and click "Apply" to keep all the changes.
