Windows Media Creation Tool is a great utility for Windows users and it has helped a lot of users install Window on their computers. The issue that we are talking about in this post is the one that you might face while creating a bootable USB installation drive. The error code is 0x80042405 – 0xA001A and is a common error faced by users due to some issues with the USB hardware.

Follow the fixes mentioned in this post to resolve this issue.

1] Try reformatting the USB drive. Open This PC, right click your USB drive and select Format. Select FAT32 as drive type and uncheck Quick Format option. Now try running the Media Creation Tool again and see if it worked out for you or not. Most probably it should because formatting your drive as FAT32 will give it a proper type and would any minor issues with the drive.

2] If that didn’t work out for you, you can try another fix which has been reported working by many users. Follow the first fix and reformat your drive. Now copy the latest version of Media Creation Tool to the USB drive. Now run the tool from inside the drive. This has somehow proven to be a working fix and can get your USB drive up and running with Windows inside it.

3] Disable USB Selective Suspend via Power Options and see if that helps you. If it does not, remember to revert the setting.

4] If nothing seems to be working, there is still a workaround. And that is using a third party tool. But for that, you will need to download the Windows 10 Installation Disc ISO file on your computer. You can download the ISO file using the second option on the Media Creation Tool and later on use that ISO to create a bootable USB. The tools that you can use are Rufus or Universal USB Installer. Both these tools are free to download and very easy to use.

Although it’s recommended to install Windows 10 version 1809 (October 2018 Update) using Windows Update, Microsoft also supports upgrades using its Media Creation Tool.

You can download the Media Creation Tool from this Microsoft support website to download the October 2018 Update files to perform a clean installation, in-place upgrade, or to create an ISO file as soon as it becomes available during the first or second week of October.

Also, you can use the Media Creation Tool to create a USB bootable media, which you can use to start your device to upgrade to the latest version of Windows 10.

If the tool doesn’t work, then you should try the Update Assistant (when available), which is a tool similar to the Media Creation Tool, but it only allows you to perform an in-place upgrade. (Microsoft designed this tool to get around Windows Update when it’s not working.)

Microsoft is expected to begin the rollout of the refresh some time during the first or second week of October, but it’ll be a gradual release, and it could take weeks until every device receives the update. Microsoft will start upgrading devices with newer hardware first, and then, when version 1809 has proven to be stable, the rollout will continue to other computers.

The Windows 10 October 2018 Update isn’t as significant as the April 2018 Update, but you’ll find a number of new improvements and several new features.
