May prevent upgrade to 22H2 (KB5022836)

KB5022836 keeps failing for me with 0x80073701

No other updates have failed before this one and none of the various troubleshooting/repair steps advised on various sites resolved it. SFC and DISM come back clean and CBS.log shows nothing of interest.

Have you tried googling that update and error code? Have you tried reviewing the event log?Sent from my iPhoneOn Mar 4, 2023, at 2:35 PM, Slapbox @.***> wrote: KB5022836 keeps failing for me with 0x80073701 No other updates have failed before this one and none of the various troubleshooting/repair steps advised on various sites resolved it.

I tried every advised repair and resolution option and have a lot of Windows experience - but in the end I gave up on getting the update installed for now.

I even stopped the update service and BITS, deleted the SoftwareDistribution folder, and rebooted - but still the update fails and there are no clues in the event log (it just repeats the error) or any other logs I have come across.

That said, I am only speculating that it may be caused by the debloater. I have no hard evidence for that though.

Thanks for your fantastic work @Sycnex!

Maybe this work for you. My 22H2 update failed - a scenario I've experienced previously with microsoft, so I went to a section that allows downloading the update for an offline install. I clicked the button and it asked if I wanted to update the machine I was on immediately or did I want to install on another box. I selected immediately, and it just did it.

Thanks for the tip @what-aboot. Unfortunately when I try that the installer says, "The following updates were not installed"
