    Windows Update KB4556799 fails at 100% Error 0x80071160


    Have tried everything to get this to work on my 2nd boot drive O: and it always fails at 100% with the above error code.

    From what I gather searching for answers is that it is a problem to do with the Alienware branding.
    In which case, Microsoft needs to smarten up.
    DISM log attached.

    Yes, that's about it in a nutshell. Yes I could and will probably use a VM. Indeed I used to use one but one not so recent Cumulative Update for W10 refused to install BECAUSE VM's were turned on in my BIOS, so that's why I use derogatory terms when referring to this OS.

    Have tried everything to get this to work on my 2nd boot drive O: and it always fails at 100% with the above error code.

    I've told WU to delay by 7 days to give me a chance to find out what's up.
    Why would my C: (Main) drive update without issue and my 2nd (Test) drive not?
    DISM log attached.
