Windows 10: Unable to install the April 2024 cumulative update KB5036892

Split from this thread. I was able to trace the exact error during the update process. I started the upgrade using the command line and the dism command. After about 20 minutes it reaches around 5.7 % progress, it stops and asks for a reboot. Upon reboot it starts the upgrades in the usual preboot environment and gets to 7% progress and then reboots. This is the indication that the upgrade failed. I noted the exact time that this happens. It reboots and then shows a message that the upgrade failed. This is what is shown cbs.log file C:\Windows\Logs\CBS at that time:2024-04-22 16:01:37,

How can I successfully install the April 2024 cumulative update KB5036892 for Windows 10?

I update successfully with automatic updates every month, usually with no problem. But this month, the cumulative update KB5036892 will not install. This is the message I get:

Some update files are missing or have problems. We'll try to download the update again later. Error code: (0x8007000d)

I tried the following to fix it:

• Ran the Windows Update Troubleshooter
  
• Tried the standalone installer using the download from the Microsoft Update Catalog for KB5036892
  
• Ran sfc /scannow and verified there are no integrity problems in system files
  
• Ran the Shawn Brink WuReset2.0.bat script available on answers.microsoft.com
  

After each fix listed above, I rebooted and ran Windows Update or the standalone installer again, but I always get the same error message listed above, with error code 0x8007000d.

Details of the Windows 10 installation:

• Processor Intel(R) Core(TM) i5-4590S CPU @ 3.00GHz 3.00 GHz
  
• Installed RAM 8.00 GB
  
• System type 64-bit operating system, x64-based processor
  
• Pen and touch Pen and touch support with 10 touch points
  
• Edition Windows 10 Pro
  
• The system has worked well with Windows 10 ever since it was upgraded to Windows 10 in 2016, and has been regularly updated with automatic updates with no serious issues over the last eight years until now
  
• Windows is running in a virtual environment (Xen), and the only problem this has caused is the KB5034441 WinRE update fails to install. The Disk management utility shows that the installation has a 511 MB Recovery Partition, but I presume it is not configured such that Windows Update can install KB5034441. Does the KB5036892 update depend on KB5034441 being installed correctly? I don't want to spend time fixing my system so KB5034441 installs successfully on my system unless KB5036892 requires that KB5034441 is installed.
  

So I am stumped now, and ask for suggestions about how to get my installation updated with the latest security patches contained in KB5036892. If it is necessary to fix my WinRE partition so KB5034441 can install, I also ask for suggestions on how to manually fix the WinRE partition so KB5034441 installs successfully.

Thank you.
