Windows 10: I got code -2147012866 every time I tried to update it.

I have trouble updating windows security because of the error code. I have Windows 10, version 20h2.

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 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:
