Windows 10: How can I fix my Windows Update?

My computer will not let me update the next Windows feature Windows 10, version 22H2 because every time I try to it says that the device is missing important security and quality fixes. I have also tried updating to Windows 11, version 23H2 but that won't work either and keeps saying to try again 0x800f0801. I have tried to troubleshoot Windows Update and it says it has fixed any problems but I am still unable to update my Windows.

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.

They made it part of the WU client then, or it's two different things doing the same. Too bad you can't download it separately.
