[SOLVED] Problem with Windows Update - KB5021235 fails with 0x8007000d

[Mingle]

Hello,

I am currently having problems installing Windows updates on a Windows Server 2016 Standard image.

I was able to install Windows Malicious Software Removal Tool x64 - v5.108 (KB890830) today, but the December cumulative update (KB5021235) continually fails.

I've run the following already:

1. sfc /scannow
2. DISM /online /cleanup-image /scanhealth and /checkhealth is: no component store corruption
3. A repair via dism /online /cleanup-image /restorehealth /source:WIM:E:\sources\install.wim:3 /limitaccess

I've noticed several Registry errors in the CBS log. Any troubleshooting ideas?

I've attached the CBS Log, components hive and the CBS hive. Does anyone have any thoughts?

Hi,

Download

SFCFix and save it to your desktop.
Warning: This fix was written specifically for this system. Do not run this fix on another system.

• Save any work you have open, and close all programs.
• Download the attachment SFCFixScript.txt and save it to your desktop.
• Drag the SFCFixScript.txt file over the SFCFix.exe executable and release it.

• SFCFix will launch, let it complete.
• Once done, a file will appear on your desktop, called SFCFix.txt.
• Post the logfile (SFCFix.txt) as attachment in your next reply.

Afterwards, attempt to update and let me know the result. If it fails attach a new copy of the CBS log(s) and the Components Based Servicing hive.
