Since last Tuesday 8th Feb.KB5010342 Failed to install. Error encountered. Some update files are missing or have problems. We'll try to download the update again later.

Windows Update KB5010342 fails to install Windows 10 version 21H1

February Patch Tuesday Update failed With Error 0x80070003

do not have group policies in force
do not use 3rd party utilities to block telemetry
have not disabled WU recently
do not use a VPN
do not have any 3rd party security sftw installed

Steps I have already taken:

#1) Ran SFC /verify - Windows Resource Protection found integrity violations
CBS log shows > Warning: Overlap in Directories (Windows\Program Files) , (Windows\SysWOW64), and Windows\Program Files (x86). Warnings state these Directories are owned twice or have its security set twice

#2) Performed a clean boot and then Reset Windows Update in How to Reset Windows Update in Windows 10

#3) Ran Windows Update troubleshooter - The result fixed 2 issues (atttached screenshot)

#4) Restarted system to install Update again after WU downloaded KB5010342 - message received from second attempted update : We couldn't complete Update. Undoing Changes"

returning system to restart normally needed to wait to be done on the 2nd reboot. (1st reboot) performed during the WU reset process. (2nd reboot) performed to return system to restart normally Perform a Clean Boot in Windows 10 to troubleshoot software conflicts

 

Windows 10 upgrade problem, no input accepted

I really hate having to come here and ask for help, but I really am stumped. It hurts my geek pride. I have a PC with fairly modern hardware in it. It has a p8p67 pro in it. I have tried upgrading windows 10 on it twice now. Both times I have had the same result.

After windows finishes upgrading it goes to the log in/set up screen. I can't do anything. No keyboard or mouse input is accepted.

I will list some, or hopefully all, of the troubleshooting steps I have tried:

• Move keyboard and mouse to different USB ports.
• Try different keyboard or mouse.
• Restart computer, repeatedly.
• Google for related issues.
• Update Bios, because why not.
• Create boot media and revert to windows 7.

The windows 10 system restore boot media works fine with keyboard and mouse. All USB ports work in windows 7. I don't know what is wrong. I suspect that windows 10 is lacking a driver of some sort, but since the computer accepts no input I have no way of checking for which driver let alone installing it.

Please help me figure this out. If I have to revert back to windows 7 again, I am not going to get it upgraded to windows 10. Thank you in advanced.

 

New install Windows 10 (issue solved)

It's good that you're not experiencing any issues. Unfortunately many folks are, a quick Google search will show the same info im offering the OP.

Heres a couple examples:

Here

It's basically what I mentioned above, small issues here and there ,but nothing to end your day.. for the most part.

I know it's anecdotal, but for my experience 95% of the time it's perfectly fine. The issues I've run into wouldn't be enough for me to roll back , but they would be enough (had I not installed it yet) ,to avoid it for another couple weeks which is why I'm suggesting it to the OP
