    Windows Updated(16299.309).KB4088776 Restart is required to complete.

    Hi dalchina. Good news, I followed your suggestion and reinstalled the update and now it appears as "installed correctly" *Biggrin Maybe it was not necessary to run the Windows Update Troubleshooter or maybe if necessary. But using it I do not think it could have worsened something. The installation was very fast, unlike the first time it showed step 1 and step 2 completed.

    Thanks for the suggestions and for the time to respond I got code -2147012866 every time I tried to update it. :) Best regards.


    And thanks for the tip of that program, I'll have it on my list.

    Hi,

    The error code 0x800704cf prevents your PC from accessing your the network to share your files or do any other tasks. Regarding your concern about the Windows update and this error message, we'd like to ask a few questions:

    • Which update are you trying to install?
    • Have you tried installing the Windows update manually? You can use the
      Microsoft Update Catalog
      to manually install the Windows update.
    • What troubleshooting steps have you tried so far?
    In the meantime, we suggest that you download and perform the Windows Update Troubleshooter
    here.

    We'll keep an eye out for your response.
