[SOLVED] KB5025221 don't install with error code 0x80073701

Hi I'm Gary R,


I'm a Security Analyst, and a Windows Update Trainee, and I'd like to help you with your problems.


As a trainee there may be times when my instructions must first be checked by a qualified update expert, before I post them. This will by necessity introduce some delay when/if that occurs, so please be patient.


Can you please do the following for me ...



  • Navigate to C:\Windows\System32\Config and locate the COMPONENTS file.
  • Please copy this file to your desktop.
  • Note: If you receive an error that this file is in-use, simply reboot your computer and try again.
  • Right-click on this file on your desktop and select Send To...Compressed (zipped) folder. This will create a file named COMPONENTS.ZIP on your desktop.
  • The file will likely be too large to upload here, if so please upload to a file sharing service.
  • Examples of services to upload to are WeTransfer and TransferKit and SendFileOnline

Please post me the link to the file
 
Thanks. Looking over your logs now, might me take a while, but I'll get back to you ASAP.

Sorry, my fault, I misnamed a folder in my fix so part of it did not complete.
