Hi tmadrid,
Thank you. I followed this link, and the only the last method using media creation tool worked for me.
First 4 methods, running troubleshoot, reset windows update, change dns and run dism and scan are for most Windows update issues generally. My advise for future readers of this thread is that for the KB5011487 failed to install issue, try to install it manually.

Helohomeuser1 ,
I'm not sure I understood your message. Did you use media creation tool to update to windows 10 version 21H2 and that fixed the KB5011487 installation problem?
I tried to install KB5011487 using Windows Update Catalog Website but when I clicked on the link bellow and nothing happened, the file was not downloaded.

- marcosmcmMar 18, 2022Copper ContributorI was using Chrome. It initiated the download eventually. It took forever though.
- tmadridMar 18, 2022Copper ContributorYa i've always had issues using it in Chrome for whatever reason. Glad it worked for you
