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

Windows for home | Windows 10 | Windows update

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!

    I tried two approaches in succession, not sure which one worked.

    First, to clarify the above command set:

    1. I opened "Windows Powershell(Admin)" on my system
    2. Within Powershell I executed these commands (edited) in the following order:

         " SC.EXE config wuauserv start= auto " [Press Enter]

         " SC.EXE config bits start= auto " [Press Enter]

         " SC.EXE config cryptsvc start= auto " [Press Enter]

         " SC.EXE config trustedinstaller start= auto " [Press Enter]

         rebooted the system

    Second, I ran the user-created tool available on www.wureset.com / downloads.php - ran ALL steps from 1 thru 14, in that order.

    RESULT - Upon the next opening of windows update my backlogged updates began to install.  The only "pain" was that each install on my system ended with a restart, so I had to run the process iteratively 32 times.  Spent the better part of the day doing the Install/Restart process BUT in the end ALL of my failed updates were successfully installed.  The running of Windows Update each time said that the most recent update had failed but DON'T let that stop you - the earlier one HAD been installed and the restart showed a decrementing number of "steps", with each step being an update that had previously failed.

    Good luck.

    We are all waiting on MICROSOFT to fix the problem.

    The double reboot is VERY COMMON.

    I have tried all their "fixes" & done a clean reinstall of Windows.

    Microsoft MUST find a way to stop this double reboot.

    The solution being given by Microsoft using the Command Prompt DOES NOT WORK.

    I am about to enter my 200th hour of MY TIME trying to fix this problem.

    I will be contacting Microsoft with my helpdesk call to see if someone has   " D E V E L O P E D ! ! ! ! "  a solution.

    We need a developer to fix this.

    Microsoft keep sending me down the WE ARE DOING NOTHING path.

    Here goes....

    Microsoft , I will try again ....

    THIS DOES NOT FIX THE PROBLEM :

    Someone at Microsoft needs to workout how to stop the DOUBLE REBOOT !!

    this DOES not WORK:

    "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"
