    Ethernet port bind failed: Catastrophic failure 0x8000FFFF


    So, I am new to Windows, Windows 10, and Hyper-V. The goal is to enable internet connectivity for the newly created Linux VM, using RedHat version 9.


    Once I start the machine, and I want to test the internet connectivity, and attempt a "ping"

    ping 1.1.1.1


    The response from the vm is :

    response: network is unreachable


    Attempts to reconfigure the Hyper-V network switch Default Switch lead to this error:

    Ethernet port bind failed: Catastrophic failure 0x8000FFFF 857cd361-3d99-438a-8332-ac083ac70906?upload=true.png

    How do I achieve reconfiguration of virtual Ethernet switch?


    Regards,

    Gus

  2. Error 0x8000FFFF: Catastrophic Failure

    Hi Paty,

    The Error 0x8000FFFF: Catastrophic Failure may have occurred due to the recent change on your PC or the issue came from the USB Drive itself. To isolate your concern, we'd like to ask the following:

    • Have you tried to use the USB Drive and create a new folder on a different PC?
    • What troubleshooting steps have you tried so far to resolve the issue?

    We look forward to your response.

    Windows .NET Framework 4.7 Update Failed / Catastrophic Failure / 0x8000ffff

    Hi,

    I am facing a Windows Update error that I can't seem to get past.

    1. Custom built PC (X99), less than 12 months old, new install of WIndows 10.

    2. Windows Defender not active, never had any anti virus software installed.

    3. I've tried the Windows Update troubleshooter tool, it also failed to resolve an issue with "Potential Windows Update Database error detected - Not Fixed"

    Below is the installation log, I can provide the CBS.log file if asked.

    Any tips greatly appreciated. Would like to avoid a full re-install but if that's what's needed I'll do it...
