KB5031361 is failing to install on my Windows Server 2019 VM whether I download the update from Windows Update Catalog and install it manually or via Settings -> Windows Update. Running dism /online /cleanup-image /restorehealth also fails and gives the error in the attached screenshot. Any ideas on how this could be fixed please?

Hi,

Follow these instructions to remove an update.
  • Open the Start menu of Windows and type the command CMD
  • When you see Command Prompt on the list, right-click on it and select Run as administrator.
  • When command prompt opens, copy and paste the following command into it, then press enter.
Code: 
wusa /uninstall /KB:4592440
  • Let me know if it says it was successful or you get the message: The update KB4592440 is not installed on this computer.
 
When I run that command, I get the error 'The update KB4592440 is not installed on this computer':

Hi,

It seems you have ran the fixlist multiple, could you please provide the previous Fixlog as well, you can find them here C:\FRST\Logs.
 
Thanks this is the right log. Please run the following DISM command and post the result. If it fails attach a new copy of the CBS log.
Code: 
DISM /online /cleanup-image /RestoreHealth
