[SOLVED] Win10 Pro cumulative update 1803 error

[desk123]

I've had a problem that every cumulative 1803 update has failed. I have noticed the problem since August, although could be longer as windows never prompts me to update.
I have tried windows update troubleshooter, downloading update from microsoft catalog and updating manually, and other insturctions online.
I don't have any antivirus installed.


I've reinstalled windows 3-4 times and everytime it will update to the newest update, however the following update will always fail
I get the following error: 0x8e5e0147, however this is not always the same. Sometimes it will start installing then just get to 100% and fail


I am running Windows 10 Pro. Intel processor


Step #2 - Run SFC Scan
- "Windows Resource Protection did not find any integrity violations"


Step #3 – SURT/DISM Scan
- The operation completed successfully.


Step #4 - Run SFCFix
it seems to just run the DISM and nothing else:

It worked! It seems to have skipped the 1803 update and updated to 1809
Thank you so much, this has been a problem for so long.

Do you know what was causing the problem?

Also is there somewhere I am able to donate/tip you for all your help?

The Windows Update Components were stuck and needed to be reset :)

I think I did like 3-4 fresh windows installs and it would still reoccur. Any idea why?
Thanks again

That sounds really strange and should not happen under normal circumstances. Are you positive that your installation files and installation media were 100% correct? SHA-1 matches up with the iso? Unfortunately, I cannot go into much more details as I do not have access to the logs from that time period. :)
