Windows 10: KB4023057

KB4023057 installs SUCESSFULLY daily according to the "View Update history". Earliest date is 7 December 2020. Most times it is KB4023057 2. and once it was KB4023057 4.
On my computer, it does not appear in the Apps as shown on an earlier question in the forum. Is it installed or is it not installed? I don't know!

Having read earlier questions about it, seen occasions when is was mentioned as genuine and some as scam.
Would be grateful if Microsoft advised if genuine or not and if it is genuine then what does it do and why there is so many problems listed in the forum about it. Hope someone knows what it is?

KB4023057 Error 0x80070643

I have Windows 10 (1803) and got this error above when trying to install the update "KB4023057".

None of the "Solutions" or "Suggestions" (uninstalling, stopping services, ISO-image, repair-tool, a.s.o.) helped.

So I tried to download and install it by myself. .. And successfully installed the update.

I took these Steps (maybe, you only need steps 4-6):

1: Download of Patch under the official microsoft update download page "Microsoft Update Catalog"

2: Unpack the downloaded package in a temporary folder.

3: Try to run the unpacked installer "windows10.0-kb4023057-x64.msi" as admin via CMD

-> Error "Cannot write to file "C:\Program Files\rempl\ <blablabla>"

4: Renamed the folder mentioned above to "C:\Program Files\rempl-OLD"

5: Run the setup again.

-> Success

6: Searched for new Updates with the regular Windows-update-function.

-> Success ... Update is no longer shown.

Maybe it is enough for you to only run steps 4-6.

 

How to uninstall KB4023057

On Jan 4 I installed KB4023057. I now wish I hadn't and want to uninstall it. I see it listed in "View update history" but it is not listed under "Uninstall update". Some of the fixes installed on Jan 4 are listed, but not KB4023057. How do I uninstall it other that by restoring from an old backup?

Update:
I see that KB4023057 is again awaiting download. Odd.

 

KB4023057 installed as program

I also have Windows 10 1709 : KB4023057 listed in programs and windows update is also trying to install it and failing at 71%
whatever I do !

" • 2018-07 Update for Windows 10 Version 1709 for x64-based Systems (KB4023057) - Error 0x80070643 "

So I have it already and it's still trying to install it and failing....

Anyone know a sensible course of action to remedy the situation ?
