Windows 10: Windows 11 Home Update KB5029263 consistently failed

The subject failure occured after trying EVERYTHING offered in MS forum and outside forums, short of installing and using 3rd party utility software, which I avoid. I emphasize I tried everything suggested, including update troubleshooter, disabling all non-MS services using msconfig, disabling all nonessential startup apps, uninstalling 3rd party antivirus, running obscure script in command prompt, using standalone updater, updating with no peripherals, and so on. All update attempts in settings stalled at 50% install progress and returned "install error - 0x8000ffff" Standalone update

Update KB5029263 disabled Startup button and Search bar

Hello,

I am facing serious problem with Windows 11 after the August Update KB5029263 was installed.

The Startup button is disabled, clicking it doesn't open the program list. Also the Search bar is disabled.

I need someone to guide me in resolving this issue as I am not able to access my program list

Thanks

Rahil

 

Windows Updates failed to instal

I just did step one and they have just all installed.... thank you so much.... it was quite frustrating having that update window pop up every 5 minutes and failing to instal every time

Thanks mate
