Exception when updating a Windows Communication Foundation service reference
While working with WCF and updating a service reference you may see the very informative error: Exception from HRESULT: 0x80041001
Now I don't know every possible cause but in my case it occurred because I had the generated service file open and it was marked as modified. Closing the file was all that was needed to fix the problem once I realized what was causing it.
 
Good luck with WCF!

Thanks, this was very helpful. I was getting the error from time to time and stopped eventually using the update service option because I thought it was broken.

I also sometimes get this error when updating service reference in the client. I solve this problem by closing solution in Visual Studio and open it again - then update is successful.
