Windows 10: FYI -- 3/12 Cumulative Update failed SFC

We had a cumulative update Tuesday. Another one just popped up because of some worm thing --

I run an SFC after each update on all of my 4 PCs. This update triggered a CBS.log error. Ran a DISM --

The second SFC then worked. I'll update if this was just one PC or all of them.

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

I do it like this if I decide to map as folder while browsing the network:

Step 1: Copy the full network path using CTRL + C.





Step 2: Right click on Computer and select Map Network Drive.





Step 3: Paste the path using CTRL + V.





Step 4: Verification it got mapped

 

Windows 10 fails to update


Thanks,

The Users list compared to the Profile list you posted earlier tell me there is not an issue with Users (a known issue where there is a profile in the list, but not actual User folder).

The error code suggests corruption in the CBS manifest:
