Hello,

I'm getting Error 0x8007010b returned when trying to install KB5099539. I've run the Windows Update Troubleshooter and it doesn't find anything wrong.

I'm running Win10 Ver 22H2 (OS Build 19045.6937).

This is the first failed update in my update history.

Help please!

Thx.

JG

    Thanks! Something might be blocking the installation, or there could be corrupted files that cannot be repaired. Perform a clean boot and try updating again to check if a driver or third-party program is causing the issue.

    1. Press CTRL + R > Type ''msconfig'' (without quotes) > Click on the ''Services'' tab.
    2. Check the ''Hide all Microsoft services'' option > Click on ''Disable All'' > ''OK''.

    WARNING: Re-enable these services after the tests are complete, otherwise some programs will not work.

    1. Press CTRL + SHIFT + ESC to open the Task Manager > Click on the "Startup" tab > Disable all programs (Right-click on the program > Disable).
    2. Restart the computer > See if the problem reappears.
    3. If the problem is resolved, it means that a third-party program or service is causing the problem.

    NOTE: This procedure is not a solution, just a test. It disables all third-party services and programs. If the problem is solved later, enable the programs and services that will start with Windows again.

    • Remember, some programs and services may not work properly.

    Hello Manoel,

    Thank you for the reply and suggestion. I followed all steps and reran Windows Update but the issue remains. Windows downloaded the files and installed them. During reboot process, everything seemed to be going fine until the 7% mark. At this point it reboots, says it couldn't continue and undoes everything. Is there a next step?

    Thanks,

    JG

    Hi!

    This usually indicates a problem with Windows Update. Try clearing its cache and restarting it:

    1. Type "'Command Prompt'" in the Search Bar > Right-click on the app > Select '''Run as administrator''.
    2. Now let's type the following commands.

    ATTENTION: Type the entire command on the first line > Press ENTER > Wait for the command to complete > Run the next command on the list.

    
    net stop wuauserv
    
    net stop bits
    
    net stop cryptSvc
    
    net stop msiserver
    
    Ren C:\Windows\SoftwareDistribution SoftwareDistribution.old
    
    Ren C:\Windows\System32\catroot2 Catroot2.old
    
    net start wuauserv
    
    net start cryptSvc
    
    net start bits
    
    net start msiserver
    
    
    1. This will force the system to download new files > When finished, restart your computer and see if the problem is resolved.
