Windows Update | Logitech - Camera - 2.3.7.5 | Error 0x800f0206

A few months ago I got an error 0x800f0206 in Windows Update regarding installation "Logitech - Camera - 2.3.7.5" driver.


I use "Logitech HD Webcam C615" and "Windows 10 Enterprise 2016 LTSB 1607". Windows Update downloaded the update (https://www.catalog.update.microsoft.com/ScopedViewInline.aspx?updateid=5da34c2a-7b10-4b3a-b3c2-764ddce2e8b0) but can't install.

Device information

  • Device name:           Logitech HD Webcam C615
  • USB Vendor ID (VID):   0x046D
  • USB Product ID (PID):  0x082C
  • USB Revision (BCD):    0x0011
  • Firmware Version:      7.0.1208
  • Firmware CRC:          0x355E
  • EEPROM Version:        2.52
  • Sensor Type:           2.3
  • Driver Version:        13.80.853.0

There is no issue in "WindowsUpdate.log" log


There are events in Event Viewer





I'm sure I have the latest driver version of the camera for my version of Windows 10, therefore I want just disable the update. But it's not that easy.
  1. There is no GUI ferature to disable specific update.
  2. I couldn't install "PSWindowsUpdate" powershell module to my Windows 10.
  3. The update has no HotFixID number, only UpdateID (5da34c2a-7b10-4b3a-b3c2-764ddce2e8b0).
  4. Registry key "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\DeviceInstall\Restrictions" does not work in my case.

The solution

I decided to disable automatic driver update by Windows. I'm totally fine with it.

  1. Group Policy Editor (gpedit.msc) → Local Computer Policy → Computer Configuration → Administrative Templates → Windows Components → Windows Update → Do not include drivers with Windows Update = Enabled
  2. gpupdate /force
  3. Reboot
  4. (Optional) DISM.exe /Online /Cleanup-image /Restorehealth


Hope it helps someone.
