Why have all Microsoft download links for wushowhide.diagcab been broken for many months?
This important Windows Update troubleshooter is the recommended solution in many Windows support articles, but for some hidden reason Microsoft have made it impossible to obtain.
- Jun 26, 2021The troubleshooter has been re-signed with a SHA-2 cert and has been republished. Thank you for your patience. As for the remaining list, I don’t have anything to add at this time but will check if there are plans to resign those.

here's the direct download link to the updated wushowhide.diagcab file in case most people are wondering about it:
https://download.microsoft.com/download/f/2/2/f22d5fdb-59cd-4275-8c95-1be17bf70b21/wushowhide.diagcab
and yes, this link still works as I've just tested it in a recent Firefox browser version and the file is signed by SHA-2 (SHA-256) certificates by MS

Is there an active replacement in the works for wushowhide? It says troubleshooters have moved and this tool will be retired.

erpmanila3w Thanks for the link. Couldn't install KB5034122 and then I ran the tool with the intention of hiding the update. However it fixed the update and I was able to install it afterwards.
