Hi

We have been unable to install the Cumulative Update for Microsoft server operating system version 21H2 for x64-based Systems update for either October or November on Windows Server 2022 (build 20348.1787). The install fails with error 0x800f081f.

This occurs when trying to install the update via SCCM, Windows Update, or by downloading the update and running it manually.

I have tried both the sfc /scannow and Dism /Online /Cleanup-Image /RestoreHealth commands with no success.

Please find attached the CBS.zip and ComponentsScanner.txt as request.

Many Thanks

Can you please post me a copy of your COMPONENTS hive ...

  • Navigate to C:\Windows\System32\Config and locate the COMPONENTS file.
  • Please copy this file to your desktop.
  • Note: If you receive an error that this file is in-use, simply reboot your computer and try again.
  • Right-click on this file on your desktop and select Send To...Compressed (zipped) folder. This will create a file named COMPONENTS.ZIP on your desktop.
  • The file will likely be too large to upload here, if so please upload to a file sharing service.

Please post me the link to the file

Not getting e-mail notification of your replies to this topic, so am having to check it manually. Unfortunately that's going to slow down my posts to you.

Looking over your latest logs now, will get back to you ASAP, but due to personal commitments tonight, that may not be before tomorrow morning (my time GMT).
 
OK, managed to get this done before I go out, so .....

Who's Gareth :oops: ????


No errors being flagged in your latest CBS.log, so please try updating again.

If successful please let me know.

If not, please post me the latest CBS.log created after the update attempt.
 
Apologies Gary! I was replying to a bunch of emails this morning, and Gareth is one of our Account Managers. I **checks sent emails** didn't call him Gary though...

I've run updates again and unfortunately am still seeing the 0x800f081f error.

No problem, I've done similar things myself. It's easily done when you're busy.

So, let's patch the flagged entries in your latest CBS.log .....

I'll probably just keep things short and to the point - less chance of calling anybody Gareth 😅

Please find attached the CBS.log and SFCFix.txt files.

Going to be out for much of the weekend, so probably won't be able to reply as frequently as I have been able to so far. Where possible I will try to reply within 24 hours to your posts.

Another set of items related to your mux drivers being flagged.

I'm going to be out for much of this morning, so it will probably be this afternoon before I get chance to source the necessary replacements to patch them.

Will get back to you ASAP.
 
Fortunately I was able to get the necessary files and registry entries before I go out, so ....
