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!

    I am having the exact same issue today. I am trying to install update KB3038314 and I keep getting error 80092004. I am getting no help from the FixIt tool either.

    I could use an answer as well. Searching the internet for answers is not yielding anything on this as of of today.

    Me too..... have tried Windows Update and the Standalone for KB3038314 and also tried the FixIt for Windows Update and the update still fails.

    I tried uninstalling all add ons like Java, Flash Player, Shockwaves etc.

    Additionally I tried uninstalling then reinstalling IE11 then retried KB3038314 with the same failure message/code.

    I'm running a freshly installed Windows 7 64bit home premium.

    Someone please help.

    Same problem here. I've also tried the Windows Update Readiness tool which usually fixes Windows Update errors.
