“PrintNightmare” KB5004945 update fails with error 0x800f0922

Hello all, Hoping for an easy solution. I'm just a regular user, with a single computer, no network drives, no servers, no VPN, nothing crazy. Just a single laptop running, unfortunately, Win10. ...

Hi,
I ran into the same problem, trying nearly everything I found in the internet (without another result) ...
This morning I found on "deskmodder.de" a hint that worked: two of the services on my computer were deactivated 😞
In German the names are "App-Vorbereitung" and "AppX-Bereitstellungsdienst" - these should be "AppReadiness" and "AppSVC" in English. After setting the start type to "manually" for both and starting them ... the update with KB5004945 was successfully finished 🙂
I hope, this works for you as well !

Thanks, successful updated!
I have only "AppReadiness" service turned off, after i temporarily turned on this service, update was finished without error.

P.S. Before that fix, i have ~5 days crashes of this updated, but hands were out of reach to fix it :))
