  1. Windows Update Error 0x8000ffff


    I am trying to run Windows update and have received Error 0x8000ffff. Here are the two errors I receive:


    2020-02 Cumulative Update for .NET Framework 3.5 and 4.8 for Windows 10 Version 1903 for x64 KB4534132 - Error 0x8000ffff

    2020-06 Cumulative Update for Windows 10 Version 1903 for x64-based Systems KB4560960 - Error 0x8000ffff


    I ran the Windows Update Troubleshooter and it did not return any errors.


    When I tried a second time to run Windows Update I received the following error messages:


    2020-02 Cumulative Update for .NET Framework 3.5 and 4.8 for Windows 10 Version 1903 for x64 KB4534132 - Error 0x80073712

    I have spent over 3 hours search for solutions with no luck. Please help!

    Windows Update Error 0x8000ffff

    Windows 10 error 0x8000ffff


    Hello,
    I have windows 10 pro, upgraded from original windows 8 pro OS. From 5 to 6 days, I am trying to update windows store app, but during installing app it is giving me error 0x8000ffff. Also when I am going to windows update, no new update is shown. Also I have tried the following options also, but same error is displayed.

    1. windows Reset - it is not working and is showing the message - nothing changed. I am doing windows reset using keeping my files.

    2. Checked the windows time and proxy and also steps below.

    Step 1: Try clearing the Store Cache:
    1. Press the Windows key + R keys.
    2. In the Run window, type WSReset.exe and click “Ok”.

    Step 2: Run built in Windows Store Apps troubleshooter and check if it helps. This would also fix any issues with Microsoft Sudoku.
    * Press Windows Key then type ‘troubleshoot’ and hit Enter
    * Select “View all” on the left panel and run “Windows Store Apps” troubleshooter from the list and see if it works.
    * Click on “Advanced” and then click on “Apply repair automatically”.
    * Click “Next” and follow the on-screen instructions to complete the troubleshooting process. Once done check if problem still persists.


    I would suggest you to perform System File Check (SFC), and then check if this fixes the issue.
    Follow the steps:
    a) Press “Windows Key + Q” button from the keyboard.
    b) Type “Command Prompt” without quotes in the search box.
    c) On the left pane, right click on the “Command Prompt” option and select “Run as Administrator”.
    d) Type “sfc /scannow” without quotes and hit enter (There should be space between sfc and /).
    Note: It may prompt you for the Windows installation DVD to fix and to enable SFC to make more than minor repairs. Some files saved on your computer might get deleted when fixing corrupted files.

    Re-Register windows store apps using power shell - Get-AppXPackage | Foreach {Add-AppxPackage -DisableDevelopmentMode -Register "$($_.InstallLocation)\AppXManifest.xml"}


    I could not get to work any of the mentioned options, please help

    Thanks.
