Server info:

OS Name: Microsoft Windows Server 2019 Standard

OS Version: 10.0.17763 N/A Build 17763

Original Install Date: 1/17/2020, 12:25:18 PM

Having issues installing cumulative updates. It seems to have installed defender and .NET updates fine. But can't get the current (Win 10 (1809) and Server 2019 - Cumulative Update (64-bit) January 10 2023) or previous December update to installed.

If I try it manually it fails with MSI failed with error code -2146498304.

When I try it from WSUS or Microsoft it fails with 2023-01 Cumulative Update for Windows Server 2019 for x64-based Systems (KB5022286) - Error 0x800f0900

I have tried to reset windows updates according to the below KB. https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/troubleshoot/windows-client/deployment/additional-resources-for-windows-update

Ran the SFC /Scannow and the DISM restore health commands The restore health command fails with Error: 0x800f0954

In Googling all these error codes I'm basically chasing my tail. Everything keeps circling around to the same thing over and over and nothing seems to work, and everything fails

The below is from the windows update log

This issue has been confounding us with some (but not all) 2019 Datacenter servers since November. One is a DC, we've tried SFC and clearing the update cache like you describe with no luck. Last week we were spinning up four new 2019 VMs (Hyper-V) installing them identically "click for click" and when we got to the Windows Update stage two of them installed all the patches fine and two of them errored out like you describe.

Interesting, I just tried this see if you get the same error as well. Try uninstalled one of the older cumulative updates and see if it lets you. mine just errors out with unexpected error.

So it appears i may have solved my issue.

  1. I deleted all files in C:\Windows\Servicing\Packages\ that i had permissions to delete. Mostly all the .MUM files. If i had to do it again i would only delete the effected one. You can find this in the CBS log (C:\Windows\Logs\CBS)

  2. Ran the Windows Update fix script to clean house.

  3. Rebooted

  4. Checked for windows update failed

  5. Checked again and was able to install the 2023-01 Cumulative Update for Windows Server 2019 for x64-based Systems (KB5022286)

Most people don’t grasp that asking a lot of questions unlocks learning and improves interpersonal bonding. In Alison’s studies, for example, though people could accurately recall how many questions had been asked in their conversations, they didn’t intuit the link between questions and liking. Across four studies, in which participants were engaged in conversations themselves or read transcripts of others’ conversations, people tended not to realize that question asking would influence—or had influenced—the level of amity between the conversationalists.
