  1. Laptop lost all data ever since the 2020-03 Cumulative Update


    Hello,

    I just got on my laptop to do some school work and opened up to the windows default background as well as all of my applications, documents, and everything all gone. It's as if someone wiped my whole laptop, however, Im the only person who ever uses my laptop. I had noticed that yesterday that there was the 2020-03 update that was downloaded on my computer, I dont know if that could be it. I hadn't done anything that couldve been harmful to my computer. If anyone could help me, it would be greatly appreciated. I need my documents and everything for school, and all of it is gone. Thank you.

    2020-03 Cumulative update failure

    I have Windows 10 1909 64bit installed on a Lenovo laptop. When I try to install the 2020-03 Cumulative update (KB4540673) it will download and then install to the point of saying that it is 100% installed, then it will change to say There were problems Installing some Updates, -Error 0x800f0982

    I have run the disk clean up and run scan /sfc on the C drive, the C drive is a SSD with 65gb free.

    I have checked on line and the suggestion are to remove any recently installed language packs, I only have one language pack installed, English (United Kingdom) so I am not likely to be uninstalling that. The laptop has been running with Windows 10 since June 2019 with no problems.

    Can anybody please advise
