    How to fix error: 0x800f0838 in windowd update installer


    I can't seem to download 2024-10 Cumulative Update Preview for Windows 11 Version 242H for x64-based Systems KB5044384. When I tried several times to retry the download in settings windows update, the downloading progresses but will stop as in stuck at certain percentage and then it goes error, so i have to retry it AGAIN. so i tried to download it manually through the cataglog but then I got the error 0x800f0838. I have already run windows update troubleshooter but they can't even run diagnostic. Please help solve this problem

    :)

    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!

    Update installation error

    I have tried installing with WUA Manager and it seemingly installed and just shut down the device with no notice. (instead of restarting). It did not announce update was not installed. I had to turn on with power button. And Update history does not list the update with no notification. In contrast, the WUMT does not shut down or restart. It just notifies after 100% installation process that update was not installed with an error. In update history, the update is listed FAILED (with error)

    The lengthy process of Command prompt: DISM.exe /Online /Cleanup-image /Restorehealth and even lengthier process of:
    Windows Update Reset Tool > ResetWUEng did not help.(But I found out my product Key number which Best Buy refused to give me).

    My next step would get live agent assistance from MS HELP department. Or just ditch the update.
