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!

    Same problem installing on W2K8R2SP1 fwiw. Guess we'll hold off on deploying this to servers for now.

    GOT IT!!!!

    I did a fresh install of Windows 7 Pro on April 17/2015 and same the error occurred with KB3038314. And Finally today after trying everything on this forum, I uninstalled Internet Explorer 11 and restarted with Internet Explorer 8. I then checked Windows Update for new updates and there were none. I then reinstalled Internet Explorer 11 and did a restart. I then checked for new updates again, and 3 new ones appeared:

         Cumulative Security Update for Internet Explorer 11 for Windows 7 for x64-based Systems (KB3021952)

         Cumulative Security Update for Internet Explorer 11 for Windows 7 for x64-based Systems (KB2976627)

         Cumulative Security Update for Internet Explorer 11 for Windows 7 for x64-based Systems (KB3032359).

    So I installed those and checked for updates again and there were no more to be found. The KB3038314 update never reappeared again and everything is now up to date.

    MS probably won't do anything about it

    because it's the "Cumulative Security Update for Internet Exploder"

    which will be superceded in May.

    OK, so I have been messing around trying to get this to work.

    This is what I have found ... This seems to be related somehow to KB3021952.

    I remember back in the day that sometimes updates would get corrupted and to fix it you would have to delete the temp downloads. So I went and did a disk cleanup  of system files. The hiding the update tips made me think of this. So after a cleanup, I now had 3 updates, two went fine but KB3038314 failed. Reboot, disk cleanup (windows update cleanup), check for updates, 2 available KB3021952 and KB3038314. Install KB3021952, run update cleanup (which is always 20.5MB), check for updates and KB3021952 is back. You can see in the screenshot below that the highlighted row is the first successful install of KB3021952. At first I thought it was KB3038314 patching KB3021952, but then after just installing 1952 then running cleanup, 1952 popped back up.

    I have downloaded the standalone KB3038314 and tried several times, several different ways.

    I think I found the issue, I looked further down the history and found this ... we have two KB3038314 updates, one for IE8 and one for IE11.
