Tom,
Pləase double-check that error number.
If the Component-Based Servicing (CBS) manifest is corrupted, you might receive a Error code: 0x80070490

I’m running Windows 7 Home Premium. I’ve never had any problems with Windows update until recently. I have a problem with one update: "Hewlett-Packard - Imaging, Other hardware - Null Print - HP Photosmart 7520 series". Any ideas why this Windows update installation fails?
Thanks,
Tom

I ran a system scan which found a corruption on the install and corrected it. The failed update no longer appears. Hope that's helpful.

2015-08-04T17:26:53+00:00 I was having the exact same problems with those two updates constantly failing (yes I have upgraded to Windows 10). I found a solution that worked for me so I thought I would share it. Open up your Control Panel and select Device Manager. Double click on Printers and if you see two Unknown Devices in this list Uninstall them and the two failed updates will stop (at least this worked for me).

M Crocker,
Your solution worked for me, as well. Thanks!
