Also, if the download crashes, then, the upgrade assistant updates itself and you have to start over.

Worked for me. Did the start/off network/back on network.
I reinstalled the OS last night and fought updates all day. So glad I do backups. Went back to pre-reinstall and kept things clean.
Thanks
Replace C:\Windows10Upgrade\wimgapi.dll with the one from C:\Windows\System32\wimgapi.dll
(Error while upgrading to Windows 10
)
does anyone have the ESD file and can upload it somewhere? I have a shitty 20 mbps connection on site and it takes ages to download
Just wanted to say thanks for the download - the bug was driving me nuts, but with a bit of fun and games (was fixing this remotely for a friend!), I got it up and running.
If you have already gone through the download and got the .esd file in the folder, if you unpack the zip file into c:\Windows10Upgrade overwriting the existing executables, disable the network connection / disconnect from the network, and run it, it works perfectly well with the latest version of the Win10 image, without having to download again. As mentioned earlier in the thread, as long as it gets past the checking for an updated version of the Windows 10 installer, it'll work fine going onwards, but will complain bitterly if it doesn't have a network connection after the initial check.
(I ended up writing a batch file to use netsh to disable the network connection, running the upgrader, waiting for 60 seconds, re-enabling the network connection, and then remoting back in to finish the job... nothing quite so fun as knowing you might not be able to reconnect afterwards!)
Edit: Typically between me hitting reply and typing that up, jpopo replied with the proper solution. Glad the reason has been nailed down!
As jpopo already said, the solution is
replace C:\Windows10Upgrade\wimgapi.dll with the one from C:\Windows\System32\wimgapi.dll
