Windows 10: Fix "update" KB5040427

Stupid downgrade makes my d-link wifi adapter not work, I have to uninstall frequently and it takes a half hour each time, I am amazed this still has not been fixed and furious at how it is basically impossible to even reach anyone and let them know this is an issue. I am starting to think the entirety of microsoft is now run by a single brain in a jar 8 miles underground

KB5039211 Some update files are missing or have problems. 0x8007000d

Hi, sorry about the delay. Ran all the suggested steps, and shut down the PC for the night.

As of this morning, I have only KB5040427 listed in the Windows Updates.

Unfortunately it failed with:

Some update files are missing or have problems. We'll try to download the update again later. Error code: (0x8007000d).

So, the original issue appears to be resolved I think because this update is new as of Tuesday, correct? I don't see the other updates anymore.

If that's the case, Thank you for your help Manoel.

 

FIXED!! Windows 7 sp1 never ends searching for updates

Yeah, I've been noting it for months on the refusenik thread. They do NOT want anything older than 10 running.

I still have an HTPC on W7, and every other month I have to fix the update agent in order to get all updates. SMH....

You provided a good step by step fix. I've bookmarked it for future reference.

 

KB5040427 Installs but when I reboot it asks to install again.

I recommend using the “Show or Hide Updates” troubleshooter to hide the problematic update. Windows Update won’t install hidden updates. Run the troubleshooter then please try to hide the KB5040427 update that will show in the list. You may try restarting your pc if it helps.
