Windows 10: Windows Update with Troubleshooter

I usually don't have any trouble with Windows Updates. But something odd is happening with this one. A few days ago I was told to make an update labeled KB4598242. I did it--no problem. The Windows log says it the update was made successfully.


A few days later, I was again asked to make update KB4598242--the same number. But it didn't work this time. As soon as the screen opened where it starts counting the percentage done, as it usually does, a few seconds later it went blank. I briefly got the Dell logo--then blank again. The computer stayed on with blank screen and no "in progress notice" indefinitely until I did a hard reboot.


After that, I got this message:

[COLOR=rgba30, 30, 30, 1]There were some problems installing updates, but we'll try again later. If you keep seeing this and want to search the web or contact support for information, this may help: 0x80070002.[/COLOR]


[COLOR=rgba30, 30, 30, 1]I've probably done this a dozen times and the same thing keeps happening. The computer, which is brand new, is otherwise running fine.[/COLOR]


[COLOR=rgba30, 30, 30, 1]I tried the Troubleshooter several times, and it said that it found an issue and removed it, but the problem keeps coming up. Below is the troubleshooter report.[/COLOR]

The tutorials provided are just a list of troubleshooting steps. Use only the steps which apply to you.

Since none of the troubleshooting steps here worked, I'd suggest you do a Clean install.

Windows Updated(16299.309).KB4088776 Restart is required to complete.

Hi dalchina. Good news, I followed your suggestion and reinstalled the update and now it appears as "installed correctly" *Biggrin Maybe it was not necessary to run the Windows Update Troubleshooter or maybe if necessary. But using it I do not think it could have worsened something. The installation was very fast, unlike the first time it showed step 1 and step 2 completed.

Thanks for the suggestions and for the time to respond Best regards.


And thanks for the tip of that program, I'll have it on my list.

 

Vista Pre-SP1 vs. Vista SP1

I've been Windows Updating for two straight days and I finally saw SP1. If you want to troubleshoot it, follow these steps:

• Show hidden updates
• Manually install any failed updates (google the KB_____ and install from the windows site)
• Make sure everything in Device Manager is good to go

I had to do step two for like 4 or 5 updates to be able to see SP1.

Any other benchmarks you guys want to see? I might try PCMark05 (I think it works on Vista).
