KB3038314 which was recently deployed by Windows update refuses to install.  This is a 64 bit Win 7 Pro machine running IE 11.  I've tried both the Windows Update web install method and downloading the update separately and both methods fail.  The update is part of MS15-032 released on April 14 (Patch Tuesday).  Has anyone else experienced this issue and found a solution?  After the update fails there is a failure code of 80092004 displayed and a message that says "Windows Update encountered an unknown error.  I have tried the Microsoft Fixit Tool and uninstalling IE 11 and reinstalling.  Any advice would be much appreciated.  Thanks!

    Fun times ahead? Fresh install of Win7 Pro Rus SP1. KB3038314 refuse to install.

    Tried to D/L it manually, but no change.

    Hi, same issue fr me. I installed over 220 updates on my fresh Win7 x64 SP1 but this one keeps failing. One observation I have made is that the download does not even complete (the C:\Windows\SoftwareDistribution\Download\3b5c0b054bf2a034f32b60dbe4de574f folder is created but is not populated by all the update files).

    I have also tried the manual download and install with no luck. I see most people who have the issue have freshly installed Win7 x64 SP1 like myself.

    I guess no surfing on this machine till Microsoft addresses the issue since this update patches a lot of vulnerabilities :(
