Hey guys!

I've been having trouble installing Cumulative update for May on one of our Windows Server 2019.
I did some basic troubleshooting and then followed your guide before I created this thread.

Any help would be appriciated :)

Thanks!

Hi,

Follow these instructions to remove an update.
  • Open the Start menu of Windows and type the command CMD

  • When command prompt opens, copy and paste the following command into it, then press enter.

  • Let me know if it says it was successful or you get the message: The update KB5048661 is not installed on this computer.
