Windows 10 fails to update


When you finish testing the Avast suggestion, make sure that you restart your machine.

Then if the issue persists, please return to the trouble shooting list in post# 89

I think there are three steps that remain; the WU troubleshooter, reset WU components, and manual WU reset.

 

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

 

Windows 10 Cumulative Updates fail to install at 96%

I've had this problem for several months. Although unrelated, it first started around the time Meltdown/Spectre were discovered, which dates this problem to around January 2018.

Windows Update has been trying to install a cumulative update, but the update (which changes KB number)
fails to install during the restart (at 96%, as the title suggests). It fails, begins rolling back the update, restarts, finishes rolling back the update, restarts, and boots into Windows where I'm promptly reminded
to install the same update again. The whole process takes 10-15 minutes each time, and is inescapable.

I've tried many, many things, including (but not limited to):

- Full system reinstall, several times

- Manually downloading and installing the cumulative update from the Microsoft website

- Suggestions listed in
this thread (in particular, the script suggested by Sumit the Microsoft MVP)

- Disable Fast Startup

- System File Check

- BIOS update

- Change graphics card

- Hiding the problem update - which only delays the problem until a new cumulative update is released the following month (and prevents me from installing any security updates)

My system is the following configuration:

Gigabyte Z68X-UD3R-B3 motherboard

Intel Core i5 2500K

8GB RAM

128GB SSD system drive

2.5TB Storage Space (HDDs) data/application partition used exclusively by Windows

Dual-boot Arch Linux/Windows 10 Pro x64, GRUB bootloader (all on the same SSD listed above)

Please, somebody help me get out of this fresh hell.
