Windows 10: 2020-01 Cumulative Update

I tried to install the update but when it was downloading it was stuck at "getting things ready - some percentage" for some minutes (I actually don't know how long a cumulative update takes to download, but it sure doesn't take long to get things ready).

I even tried to install it through the Update Catalog but it didn't install it with either.

This happened to me last month as well and I think it was a cumulative update too.

Is the SoftwareDistribution method my only option of trying to fix the problem? And will I get a truckload of updates to install after that?

I also thought of waiting until next month's Patch Tuesday to see if they roll out these updates again in another cumulative update, but I'm worried about it not working as well.

2018-01 Cumulative Update for Windows 10 Version 1709 for x64-based Systems (KB4056892) - MS Surface 3

I have an MS Surface 3 (Not Pro) running Windows 10 Pro for Workstations, v1709 (Build 16299.15). When I search for updates, it wants to install 2018-01 Cumulative Update for Windows 10 Version 1709 for x64-based Systems (KB4056892). It fails with Error
0x80070002.

I tried manually downloading the Delta and Cumulative updates and installing manually, but they fail stating it is not for my system.

How can I either:

• Get this update to install, or
• If it is not compatible, tell Update to not install it and ignore the update?

I have tried:

• Clearing the SoftwareDistribution folders and Catroot2 several times
• Running the Windows Update troubleshooter
• Every step in troubleshooting including try to run the Media Creation Tool
• Factory reset, including deleting all files and apps

After the Factory reset, updates applied but it again failed on 2018-01 Cumulative Update for Windows 10 Version 1709 for x64-based Systems (KB4056892) with Error 0x80070002.

Windows 10 version 10.0.17763.195 not updating anymore since 2018-12 Cumulative Update, Troubleshooter failing to start

Hi Vijay, thank you for your quick reply.

As for step 1, I mentioned in the title that my troubleshooter is not starting at all.

Nonetheless, I ran successfully all the commands listed in step 2 and restarted my machine, but when I tried to run Windows Update it failed again, returning a different error for the Cumulative Update:

2019-01 Cumulative Update for Windows 10 Version 1809 for x64-based Systems (KB4480116)

Error 0x8007025d
