Windows 11 Enterprise - Update issues

Copper Contributor

Hi All,

 

      I have 2 Windows 11 Enterprise computers at least that have issues with the updates. I see the same issue either when updating from WSUS or from Microsoft online site. Most of the time I'm stuck on one of these updates: KB5034765, KB5034204, KB5034848. Most of the time I'm getting this error code:0x800f081f. My Windows version is 10.0.22631.2428 (23H2).

 

    I tried all the solutions I found on the Internet except doing a repair/reinstall of the OS as this is the last solution I want to do after exhausting all other solutions. So, suggesting to reinstall/repair my windows is out of question now.

 

    I tried also to reset all the components of update module as follow:

 

Stop-Service bits
Get-Service -Name bits
Stop-Service wuauserv
Get-Service -Name  wuauserv
Stop-Service msiserver
Get-Service -Name msiserver
Stop-Service appidsvc -Force
Get-Service -Name appidsvc
Stop-Service cryptsvc -Force
Get-Service -Name cryptsvc
netsh winsock reset
netsh winsock reset proxy

Ren $env:Systemroot\SoftwareDistribution $env:Systemroot\SoftwareDistribution.old
Ren $env:Systemroot\System32\catroot2 $env:Systemroot\System32\catroot2.old
ren  C:\$WinREAgent C:\$WinREAgent.old

Start-Service bits
Start-Service wuauserv
Start-Service msiserver
Start-Service cryptsvc
Start-Service appidsvc
Start-Service cryptsvc

 

I also run this commands:

 

Sfc /ScanNow
#no issues found

dism /Online /Cleanup-image /ScanHealth
dism /Online /Cleanup-image /CheckHealth
dism /Online /Cleanup-image /RestoreHealth
dism /Online /Cleanup-image /StartComponentCleanup

Sfc /ScanNow

#no issues found

 

I did notice as well, that when I check the update history, I don't see the failed tries for these updates (they don't show up at all in the update history).

 

This is the interesting part of CBS log for KB5034765 (same error for the 2 other updates as well):

    So did you see this error in CBS before (manifest missing)? do you have any suggestion except reinstalling or repairing the windows using the installation media (ISO).

You may Check task scheduler for someone hidingcthere steps nit wanting you to be able to update and messing with Bit is one way thats done but it may help if you do the repair install keeping everything Of your own and the same settings but bad actor files may be replaced yhat makes it run much better I know first hand you can believe me on that and do a checksone on problem files or services on key alway look for things taken away for no reason like check your privileges I suggest best wishes with this I alway say seek and you will find..
