Solution Steps
- 1 First, try a simple reboot: Press Windows key + X, select 'Shut down or sign out' → 'Restart'. This might clear the stuck state. After reboot, check if the error is gone.
- 2 If the error persists, run the Windows Update troubleshooter: Press Windows key + I to open Settings, go to 'System' → 'Troubleshoot' → 'Other troubleshooters', and click 'Run' next to 'Windows Update'. This tool automatically detects and fixes common update issues.
- 3 Press Windows key + X and select 'Windows Terminal (Admin)'. Run 'sfc /scannow' to check for system file corruption. This is a standard step to ensure system files are healthy.
- 4 Run 'DISM /Online /Cleanup-Image /RestoreHealth' to repair the system image. This is more thorough and can fix issues that SFC can't.
- 5 If the error is related to a specific update, try uninstalling it: Go to Settings → Windows Update → 'Update history' → 'Uninstall updates'. Find the problematic update and uninstall it, then reboot and try installing it again.
