This is getting annoying. The machine this error is on is not an HP machine, it is an MSI Katana GF66 and it is also an error with a WINDOWS UPDATE. That being said I cross posted my issue on the HP forums and they blew me off telling me to call support. This problem which is directly to do with a WINDOWS UPDATE is therefore a 100% Microsoft problem and needs to be treated by MS.
I am being treated like a ping pong ball and I cannot stand when that happens.
since no one is willing to take responsibility for the programming screwup causing this error can someone at least tell me how to get it out of my Windows Update list so it doesn’t show up anymore?
Sincerely,

Wonder_Woman i had the same problem and i just fixed, i uninstall everything related to HP.
Go to setting, app, Uninstall apps, on the search bar type: HP , and uninstall all HP program and drivers shown, and restart) by now problem should be fix, (check windows update).
Last, install the HP Printer app from Microsoft Store, that should install all the drivers needed for the Hp printer! this is how i could fix it 🙂
- Wonder_WomanAug 16, 2023Iron ContributorHello,
Thank you for your reply and your suggestion. I unfortunately had a separate issue with the laptop that this happened on that required me to have to do a full reset of Windows 11 pro on the laptop. I experienced a problem with the display drivers that caused the screen to keep blinking and it wasn’t only just the display screen from the laptop itself. It also affected my external monitor. The reinstall of windows 11 Pro completely cured the problem of the stuck windows update.
Once again, thank you for your reply.- Rob NicholsonDec 05, 2023Brass Contributor
I've got exactly the same error. All HP software remove although I'm just trying printui /s /t2 which allows you to remove printers and drivers.

I've had the same problem, did a lot of online research, tried everything and nothing worked.
Your solution resolved my problem.
