These are correct steps to take and have solved other update issues for me. However, there is another necessary step to try before resorting to the in-place upgrade, and that's clearing the update cache and forcing a fresh download of failing updates. Here is a link, scroll down to Seema-Bharti's post.

This has help me with other updates.

However, none of these steps are helping today with KB5034441.

From the system log:

Installation Failure: Windows failed to install the following update with error 0x8024200B: 2024-01 Security Update for Windows 10 Version 22H2 for x64-based Systems (KB5034441).

Keep in mind, if enough people are having trouble with an update, Microsoft usually supersedes it with a working update fairly quickly (that's the case where clearing cache and redownloading seems to be most helpful). I'll wait for a couple weeks before resorting to an upgrade in-place.

I just started running into this, and there's this blurb in the description of the update:

IMPORTANT

Some computers might not have a recovery partition that is large enough to complete this update. Because of this, the update for WinRE might fail. In this case, you will receive the following error message:

• Windows Recovery Environment servicing failed.
  (CBS_E_INSUFFICIENT_DISK_SPACE)
  

To help you recover from this failure, please follow Instructions to manually resize your partition to install the WinRE update.

Known issue Because of an issue in the error code handling routine, you might receive the following error message instead of the expected error message when there is insufficient disk space:

• 0x80070643 - ERROR_INSTALL_FAILURE

I tried the process of resizing the recovery partition and ran into an interesting error when I tried to re-enable it. Windows reported it can't enable it while Bitlocker is enabled.

So I'm wondering if this patch to fix a Bitlocker-related vulnerability requires Bitlocker to be disabled and the device decrypted before it will work.

Thoughts?
