I get the following message when attempting to download 26200.7899............
Unable to retrieve data from Windows Update servers. Reason: EMPTY_FILELIST
If this problem persists, most likely the set you are attempting to download was removed from Windows Update servers.
Fix it please.
 
26200.7899 is the latest Insider build. What do you want to us to fix?

Sometimes MS will remove a bad build from their servers, so users can't install it. This problem is not related to NTLite.
 
This error: Unable to retrieve data from Windows Update servers. Reason: EMPTY_FILELIST
The download process stops because it thinks the set I am trying to download has been removed from Windows Update servers.
So, exactly what the hell is happening? I have never encountered this error before. Is something corrupt or is it like the error says, it has been deleted? I get this annoying error every time I attempt to download windows 11 26200.7899. I doubt it is something I am doing on my end.
 
I just read your second line in your reply. Perhaps that explains what the hell is going on.
 
There's public speculation that this build was announced, and then pulled without warning. You're not the only person who's noticed they can't download it.
 
I guessed that. I also figured that this build was posted on the uupdump.net site a bit prematurely and was pulled in an attempt to correct their stupid mistake. A logical assumption, I Think.
 
I concluded that as well, because it was posted on uupdump site at 10:22 PM my time Thursday night. I thought that was an odd time for them to post an update. But some people were able to download it.
