Windows 10: Cumulative Update KB4090913 Windows 10 v1709 Build 16299.251 - Mar. 5

Don't know what version of windows you have (Pro vs Home), but since I've set via the Group Policy editor, to exclude Drivers, Windows update rarely sends me anything but Defender updates or security updates. I don't have any proof, but I used to get updates really early (almost as fast as the Brits get them), but since them most of the time I have to manually install them.

 

Hi,

Same setting here but I do receive all updates just like most folk around here.

Cheers, *Wink

 

My computers don't find the update until I manually click the button to search for updates. These computers are on and online 24/7 and will say that they last searched for updates 'today' like 3 or 6 hours ago, yet would not find the update when left to themselves. I don't get it.

 

Hi,
Updates from others on the internet or you sending updates to others on the internet is I believe what you're referring to
No I've always had that option off
I do switch it to updates on my network first but still disable it
It's senseless to be a MS server *Tongue

 

I still don't have this update here in the UK and manually checking just reports that everything is up to date (sometimes a Defender anti-virus definition update will download but nothing else). Last update was 13 Feb 2018. I'm an Insider as well.

 

Not every computer gets the update (through Windows Update) at the same time. Sometimes I get the update the same day it is released and sometimes it takes 3-4 days before it is offered in Windows Update.
But there is no need to worry if you don't get it immediately in Windows update. That's the MS way of offering updates.

If you wanna install it as soon as it is released you can always do it manually. Shawn always gives the Microsoft Update Catalog link at the end of his post, so if you don't want to wait to get it from Windows Update, you can always download it yourself.

 

Update: New "Known Issue" added to article in first post.

After installing KB4090913 the Mixed Reality Portal may fail to initialize resulting in error “SXXXXXXX-X” or may present a “We couldn’t download the Windows Mixed Reality Software” message after the software is successfully downloaded. Microsoft is working on a resolution and will provide an update in an upcoming release.

 

I need help again... got stuck in loop after KB4090913 failed to be installed. After first boot and when turning on, update informed that installation failed and then it cancelled changes. Since that in every boot this informs that "install updates and boot", but it never does install, though I get into my desktop in decent time. Had last week also in KB4074588 black screen issue which was solved by zinou (thanks a lot zinou*Smile for effort) with disabling AppXSvc, see this thread last page, don't know if these are connected. Now new boot trace record in link here below, compressed and about 110M size

One good first step would be to reset Windows Update in Win10:

*Arrow Reset Windows Update in Windows 10
If that doesn't work, there is a good chance a repair install (in-pace upgrade) would probably resolve your issue:

*Arrow Repair Install Windows 10 with an In-place Upgrade

I really hope that helps. Just a reminder, a repair install will keep your files data as well as your already installed apps. You probably know that already. *Wink

 

Hi,

That plus a system check running Kyhi's excellent "Imagehealth" set of command seems in order too:

Often troubles updating are indicative of native OS problems. Just saying.

Manually starting "check for updates" this afternoon found KB4090913, downloaded and installed it with no problems. Update history showed it successfully installed, and the OS Build info displayed 16299.251. Everything has been working fine. But when I checked update status at about 11:00 p.m., I saw the message "an update is being prepared for your device but it's not quite ready yet. We'll keep trying or you can retry now" followed by a retry button. I checked update history and saw that WU had attempted to install KB4090913 again and failed with error code 0x80240034 ("update failed to download" is the definition I found for this code).

Any idea why it should attempt to download and install an update that was successfully applied? Has anyone encountered this situation before and fixed it? Thanks in advance.

 

My Microsoft Wireless Mouse and Keyboard do NOT work with KB4090913. Plugging the wireless device in ALSO STOPS the laptop keyboard and touch pad to stop working. When I rollback to the January update KB4056892 everything works fine.

Therefore KB4090913 does NOT work with Microsoft Wireless Desktop 3000 on my Laptop.

 

Hey all! Mixed results here: the latest KB4090913 installed without apparent issue on all 4 of my Current Branch PCs. But I am suffering from the "KB4058258 hangover" issue that Bree reports so nicely in thread #31 (great job, sir!). I am therefore very happy to understand that an upgrade repair install should fix this issue. I'll try it on one of my non-production machines today, and see what happens. And wow! the DISM /startcomponentcleanup sequence is taking FOREVER to complete on those machines, too. Very interesting!
Thanks again to Bree for his excellent detective work.
--Ed--

PS added 2 minutes later: I got this back on my production desktop when the aforementioned DISM sequence had completed:



I therefore infer that, because I know I ran an upgrade repair install machine on this PC recently, it must've been AFTER the "hangover-causing KB update" had been applied. This one, apparently, is already fixed. Thanks again!

 

Apart from DISM's 'un-reclaimable package' I know of no other issues this 'hangover' causes. An upgrade repair install this close to 1803 being released is probably overkill. Unless OCD is bothering you, I'd say just wait for the 1803 upgrade which should also fix the issue.

 

Regarding my earlier post about Windows Update attempting to install KB4090913 a second time: I ran the troubleshooter today and it found no problems, so I hit the retry button to see what would happen. Check for updates ran and said the system is up to date. Whatever was going on yesterday has apparently gone away. This works for me. *Smile
