Windows 10: Here we go YET AGAIN... Two updates keep failing. AGAIN.

Hi.Here we are yet again. After an awful amount of most likely unnecessary updates that have taken two days to install, I am left with a system which is continually trying to download and install the following two updates:Security Intelligence Update for Microsoft Defender Antivirus - KB2267602 Version 1.411.89.0and2024-01 Security Update for Windows 10 Version 22H2 for x64-based Systems KB5034441Both of these are failing, over and over, and yet still redownloading and wasting my systems resources. For clarity, my system can multitask like nothing I've ever had before and I never see it st

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.

 

KB4025339 Fails Install 0x80070564

Thanks
I am trying Eagle 51's suggestions now. Windows Update troubleshooter found a bunch of errors and fixed all but one.The update is trying to download KB4025339 again. I'll see what happens. At step one troubleshooter finishes with one error unresolved "Potential Windows Update Database Error Detected-Not Fixed". Windows update stalled at 0%.

At step 2 same troubleshooter error. The KB finished a new download failed to install.
Did step 3 KB has downloaded but fails to install.

If Eagle's suggestion doesn't work I'll try EdTittel's suggestion

Tried bothe Eagle & Ed 's suggestions - do not work. Anyone else?

I have noticed that the latest update for my nvidia drivers has failed to update. Wondering about that!

 

Failed updates

Hi Lozo,

There are several possible reasons why Windows Updates are failing such as system file corruption or software conflict. For us to effectively assist you with your concern, we would like to know the following:

• Are there error messages associated with the failed updates?
• What's the result of the Windows Update Troubleshooter? Did it detect any issues?
• What troubleshooting steps have you tried so far? This is to prevent us from providing the same steps.

In the meantime, we recommend that you check this
page and follow the instructions on how to troubleshoot Windows Update issues. If you've already tried some of the suggested steps in the article, you can skip those and proceed to the next one.

Keep us posted and we'll be willing to assist you further.
