Windows 10: How to fix windows malfunctioning after a windows update?

I have now been struggling for weeks with an issue that occurred to my pc after a windows update. I can still open the settings but i can no longer use most of its features and when i try to, the whole settings app closes up, same thing with my windows search bar, it closes right after i click on it and i can’t even connect to the wifi unless i use an ethernet cable. I tried to use the windows troubleshooter but it won’t function either, instead, an error message shows up error 0x8000FFFF . I tried looking for a restore point to go back to but all of them were after when the problem happene

FIXED!! Windows 7 sp1 never ends searching for updates

Check the date on the one you thought it was. Nov 4 2015 <-That's not June

The rollup does contain the fix.

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.

 

Windows Update keeps failing!

Hi,

I had once a similar issue like yours, i.e. not able to update Windows 7. What I did to solve the problems is:

- go to control panel, then to "Troubleshouting" > "System and Security" > "Fix problems with Windows update" > click "Advanced" > choose "Apply repairs automatically".

And Windows will start detecting the issues and will repair "Windows update components". The problems should be fixed now, close the program, restart the PC, and see if the mentioned steps have fixed the problems you mentioned.

Hope it works for you.

Good luck!
