This update has failed 21 times+. I have run trouble shooter and it is green.

Everything looks good until after the reboot. Stuck in a bad loop.

Event log:

Installation Failure: Windows failed to install the following update with error 0x80070BC2: 2018-01 Cumulative Update for Windows 10 Version 1709 for x64-based Systems (KB4056892).

Any help would be appreciated.

Moved from: Windows / Windows 10 / Install & upgrade

PLEASE FIX THIS.  This update has failed over 20 times.

Surely at least one Microsoft employee is smart enough to fix this problem.  A simple call to any of the people suffering from the problem would allow this one employee to see what's wrong.

EXTREMELY UNHAPPY.

Hi

open CMD as administrator, an type one by one:

SC config wuauserv start= auto [Press Enter]

SC config bits start= auto [Press Enter]

SC config cryptsvc start= auto [Press Enter]

SC config trustedinstaller start= auto [Press Enter]

reboot system

Hope this helps!

    Laura,

    OK.  Let's try something a little different.  If you RIGHT click on the Microsoft Start button you should see the option "Windows PowerShell (Admin)" in the popup window.  LEFT click on this option.  A window called "Administrator: Windows Powershell" should open up.  It should look like a Command Prompt window because they are almost the same. 

    The commands you enter into the Powershell window need one small modification to work.  For example:

    SC.EXE  CONFIG BITS START=AUTO

    As you probably noticed, the only difference is entering SC.EXE instead of SC.  So, go ahead and type this command.  If you get the response "SUCCESS" repeat this command for the other 3 services CRYPTSVC, WUAUSERV and TRUSTEDINSTALLER.

    This change is what finally worked for me.  I have seen quite a few people say it worked for them.  I've also seen a number that said it didn't help.

    Let me know how it goes.

    Dear FatimaIqbal,

    I have completely lost track of your exact problem.  I have only been trying to help people with issues trying to run Windows "Command Prompt as an Administrator".  If this is your problem, please restate your exact issue/problem.  If this isn't your problem, I probably can't help.

    Take Care

    I'm sorry this didn't work and I know it's frustrating but you are very close.

    Some quick questions:

    a) Based on what you said, it sounds like everything worked as expected through step 5 above.  Specifically, the popup menu with the "Run as Administrator" option did pop up.   Correct?

    b) When you move the cursor over "run as administrator" option you must LEFT click it..  If you right click, nothing happens. 

    c) If you are LEFT clicking on "run as administrator" option, can you describe exactly what happens after the left click?

    d) And finally, do you know if your logon account has the Administrator attribute?

    Again, good luck...

    Hello,

    My logon is as the administrator.

    When I left click on run as administrator it opens but not as administrator.

    Thank You

    Dear FatimaIqbal,

    You should ignore my Administrator attribute question.  This question was intended for user Laura.  If you are interested in it, google "standard user versus administrator user".

    oh okay sorry.

    but do you know a solution to my problem?
