If people are still having problems what worked for me was to do a spot update from the latest insider build ISO (I was on the beta channel so I used the ISO file for that). Just mount the ISO file and run the installer exe. You can download the ISO files from Microsoft's website https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/software-download/windowsinsiderpreviewiso?wa=wsignin1.0. After doing the spot update you will probably have more Windows Updates available and I just installed those from the Settings. Not sure if this is an overkill solution but it worked out for me in the end.

GengarBanana same error here. Come on, Microsoft!
I already left the Insider Program so can't access the ISO to do spot reinstall. Hopefully next update will install successfully when released...- josephwitkinAug 31, 2022Copper ContributorActually, looking at my Windows Update History, it shows that KB5016632 was SUCCESFULLY installed back on August 10 - with several subsequent failures. Is the update installed, but not marked off so WU knows its installed??
