    Hi and hope someone can help! My desktop has failed to install updates for weeks, and I'm concerned about the security implications.


    This is my latest update history:


    Feature update to Windows 10, version 1909 2

    Last failed install attempt on ‎24-‎Mar-‎20 - 0x8007001f

    Feature update to Windows 10, version 1909 2

    Last failed install attempt on ‎19-‎Feb-‎20 - 0x8007001f


    There are also 4 cumulative updates which have failed to install on many occasions, but I can't copy the text to show here!

    These are the 2 different messages attached to them:

    Last failed install attempt on ‎30-‎Mar-‎20 - 0x80240034

    Last failed install attempt on ‎11-‎Mar-‎20 - 0x80070017


    I've tried the 'get help' dialogue, which apparently is having a 'technical problem', but also tells me that "It looks like your device doesn't have any pending updates." There appear to be no problems with attached devices.

    Apparently, I am also "running a version of Windows that’s nearing the end of service", and I should update it, but the 'learn more' link doesn't tell me how to do that! It's WIndows 10 Home, version 1809, installed 8 Dec 18, OS build 17763.973.

    Any help very much appreciated!

  2. Windows 10 fails to update


    When you finish testing the Avast suggestion, make sure that you restart your machine.

    Then if the issue persists, please return to the trouble shooting list in post# 89

    I think there are three steps that remain; the WU troubleshooter, reset WU components, and manual WU reset.

    KB4025339 Fails Install 0x80070564

    Thanks
    I am trying Eagle 51's suggestions now. Windows Update troubleshooter found a bunch of errors and fixed all but one.The update is trying to download KB4025339 again. I'll see what happens. At step one troubleshooter finishes with one error unresolved "Potential Windows Update Database Error Detected-Not Fixed". Windows update stalled at 0%.

    At step 2 same troubleshooter error. The KB finished a new download failed to install.
    Did step 3 KB has downloaded but fails to install.

    If Eagle's suggestion doesn't work I'll try EdTittel's suggestion

    Tried bothe Eagle & Ed 's suggestions - do not work. Anyone else?

    I have noticed that the latest update for my nvidia drivers has failed to update. Wondering about that!
