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!

    Tried almost everything. As another member posted, the only solution that worked for me was this:

    1. Download the standlone KB4056892 package. Don't install it yet
    2. Disconnect from the internet (not sure if this is necessary but just in case)
    3. Open Control Panel -> uninstall a program -> view installed updates. Locate the KB4056892 update and uninstall it. You will be asked to restart. Do so.
    4. Install the downloaded package and restart
    5. Check if it installed properly. It did so in my case :)

    Hi,

    Since you're using an Intel processor, KB4056892 should properly install on the computer. There is a possibility that there is an issue with the system files of Windows Update. This can be the reason why you're unable to install the update. We've provided a link in our reply last 10th of January 2018. The link contains multiple methods that can usually resolve common update issue. Just to clarify, have you performed the steps found in that link? If not, we suggest that you do so.

    Keep us posted.

    Hi Argel,

    Problem seems to be solved.  Update KB4056892 was installed successfully. 

    I followed the link up to step 4.

    Thanks !

    Hi Rene,

    If the update is continuing to install unsuccessfully, there is a possibility that a Windows Update component is corrupted or the update file is corrupted. Just to clarify, what are the troubleshooting steps that you've done? Did you reset the components of Windows Update already? If not, we recommend that you do so to see if it will resolve the issue. You can reset the Windows Update components by following the steps here. Once you've accessed the link, kindly follow steps 1, 2, 3, 5, 6, 9, and 12.

    Please update us if you're able to install the update after resetting the components of Windows Update.

    Thanks  for the various replies. Update failed 50+ times tried everything but unsuccessful. Only get following  message I guess from Microsoft "Heads up,, we are going to make windows better by updating soon. We'll show a reminder when we are going to restart"
