KapilArya Tried that and checked for an update and it still fails.

Tried it again followed by manual installation of the update and getting same results.

I can't think of a reason why an update would fail, i always keep everything on windows with default configuration and never done any changes to the registry or anything that would cause Windows to get corrupted in some way or another.

  Hi MajDroid
  Because I'm guessing you're using a stable version of Windows - and this is a preview update (this may not be
  You may have to install this update because all components are missing )
  Download updates from the Microsoft Store perhaps a new installer downloaded from the Store will provide a complete environment for installing the latest preview (optional)'

    I am on stable channel but you raise a good point, the update is clearly labeled as preview in
    but why would Windows Update Catalog but why would it offer it to me to install it if it's readily available for stable channel?!
