Cumulative update KB5001330 fails to install
Hello Everyone ! I am getting an error for installing update KB5001330 Windows 10 version 20H2. I have no idea how to fix the issue. I have troubleshooted windows update but it wasn't helpful. I have...
Thank you for the advice Ariq, it worked for me. I used the "MediaCreationTool20H2" (opt. A). Just in case I created new hard drive image using "AOMEI Backupper" before the repair. The entire process took about 2 hours.
Microsoft should take more seriously problems like that, it's more than 2 weeks since the problematic update has been released.
Same, I downloaded the tool from https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/software-download/windows10 and upgraded windows 10 to windows 10...
Weird but it worked, all updates are ok now. Best to run a disk cleanup afterwards.

Hello!
This confirms that the problems do not arise from the kb50001330 update - only the computer did not have a full environment to install! Components were missing and the update was retiring to protect your computer from a fatal error!, but there can be many reasons.- But I do have no idea about the missing components. I have been updating cumulative update without any hassle for the past few years and this was the 1st time I met this issue and it is severe actually because I have applied all the methods given by you people under this post but I found no help at all
The problem Microsoft won't tell you what are the missing files and components needed to install the updates successfully. Now, it seems Microsoft have pulled KB5001330 and KB5001391 as I was no asked to download and install them despite previous failed installs. Also now, KB5001330 and KB5001391 are no longer listed as failed installs under Update History. Instead, last night I was asked to download and install KB5003171 but the install stuck at 20% and failed due to missing files.
- From what I've read from all the different websites, looks like, the major underlying culprit COULD BE the Adobe Flash removal update, KB4577586 (Adobe Flash removal).
All the updates since Jan 2021 failed for me and everytime I g**gled, the suspect was pointed out to be Adobe Flash. Looks like if either a user manually/voluntarily uninstalled it or Microsoft updates removed it in one of their Sept 2020 updates, you may run into the 2021 failed updates issues. And since Adobe has removed all traces of it on their site, it's not possible to install it, except from a rogue shady site, to prove this theory. So, like everyone else, I had to execute the MediaCreationTool20H2 to reinstall Win10 from scratch.- MC claims that the updates failing to install because the OS has been install through ISO image.. YEs I did that two time in last two months and ISO image is an official OS given to us by Microsoft. I always keep ISO image drive in case if I lose OS for some reasons but that is not a crime , installing OS with the help of ISO image......Am I right dear ?
