[SOLVED] Windows (Cumulative) Updates failing to install [Server 2016] Part II

[bcmaze]

Hi guys,

there was a time this forum saved me lots of headaches and a absolut horrible experience with MSFT Support [1].

Now I am actually running into some issues again which looking like kinda the same thatn in the previous Thread [1] explained.

The cumulative Windows updates are failing on some machines...

dism /online /cleanup-image /restorehealth is exiting with Error 0x800f081f at 95.5%

According to CBS and setupapi.dev.log it looks like wdmaudio.inf is driving nuts.

See CBS:

Any help is greatly appreciated.



[1] [SOLVED] - Windows (Cumulative) Updates failing to install [Server 2016]

I ran sfc /scannow with errors that some files cannot be fixed.

Find attached the CBS.log for that run...

I just realised that wdmaudio.inf entry was missing in registry.
I used FRST64.exe with the following fixlist.txt and cumulative update installation went fine.

CreateRestorePoint:
Reg: reg add HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\DriverDatabase\DriverInfFiles\wdmaudio.inf /ve /t REG_MULTI_SZ /d wdmaudio.inf_amd64_6c04b107072453c8 /f
Reg: reg add HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\DriverDatabase\DriverInfFiles\wdmaudio.inf /v Active /t REG_SZ /d wdmaudio.inf_amd64_6c04b107072453c8 /f

I mark this one as solved.
