Does Windows Repair work on Windows 10?

When I was Windows 7 a Microsoft 2nd Level Tech used your program to fix an error I was having that was preventing Windows 10 from installing and your tool fixed whatever was wrong with my system.  After that I was able to install Windows 10 Pro without a hitch and everything was going well until yesterday. 

Yesterday my wife was using the PC and was going to order something online and something (My wife is not a computer person) happened and the system had to reboot.  Once it rebooted it went into an infinite loop indicating that something was wrong and that it was diagnosing and fixing my PC but it never could fix it, thus the infinite loop.  After trying about everything, I finally gave up and restored an Acronis TrueImage snapshot image of Windows 10 I had taken after Windows 10 was installed but before the patches were sent down on 8/10.  All went well with the image restore and Windows 10 is up and running but I still have a problem.

When I went into Windows Update to download all of the patches and updates to the system, Windows update fails with an 0x8024402f error.  I've tried running numerous things and scans and no errors are found but I still cannot update my system.  If Windows Repair would work on Window 10 Pro and you think it would fix this problem I'd give it a shot but I wasn't sure if Windows Repair was Windows 10 compliant.

- Yes, WR works on Windows 10. Version v3.42 has specially been updated with increased support for Win 10.
- This error is the result of a (temporarily) broken internet connection. So, I would thing WR can solve this problem.
- Run the program and please report back.

Well, I downloaded Windows repair and went thru each step in the process up thru the repair step.  I then restarted the PC in safe mode and ran repair twice.  After that I still got the 0x8024402f error while trying to run Windows Update.  I then ran the repair step again but this time in normal logon mode and it was still a no go.  This is really frustrating because other than Windows update the PC is appears to be running flawlessly.

Shane:
0x8024402f is an error code related to connection problems with Windows Update. That means your computer isn’t able to connect with Microsoft Update server, therefore you’re unable to receive any new updates.

Did you try this yet?

Shane, your fix is for the c variant - I think the f variant is a .NET Framework problem.
