Reinstall window update is working for me

Reinstall window update

I met with the same problem that this issue describes and I'm seeking for a solution, too.

Do you mean resetting Windows Update?

I tried using this command but it will show other error code 0x800f081f

my solutions is "Settings > System > Recovery > Fix problems with Windows Update > Reinstall now". This process will take some time, about an hour.

  • dism /online /cleanup-image /StartComponentCleanup

I had the same problem recently and your solution solved my problem. After the Windows Update, I successfully installed the Virtual Machine Platform by running the wsl.exe --install --no-distribution command.

My solution is to reinstall Windows with iso generated by media creation tool, with all data and settings preserved.
