Windows 8.1 Update KB4340558 Fails with Error Code 80092004

Today Microsoft released six updates, but I was only able to get five to successfully install. The sixth update -- KB4340558 -- continually fails with error code 80092004.

The full name of the update is:

Security and Quality Rollup updates for .NET Framework 3.5 SP1, 4.5.2, 4.6, 4.6.1, 4.6.2, 4.7, and 4.7.1 for Windows 8.1, RT 8.1, and Server 2012 R2 (KB 4340558)

In an attempt to correct this error, I have:

  1. Run the Windows Update Troubleshooter
  2. Run"dism /online /cleanup-image /restorehealth"
  3. Stopped and restarted services pertaining to Wnidows Update -- wuauserv, bits, cryptsvc

But none of these steps resolved the problem.  This particular update downloads, but simply fails to install.

I did a clean reinstall a couple of months ago, so I do not think my system is at fault here.

Is anyone else experiencing the same problem with this update?

    When I try to download KB4340558 directly from the Microsoft Update Catalog as you suggest, I am presented with three downloads.  When I try to download them, all indicate that they are not relevant to my system.

    ME TOO

    I am having this same issue at 2 locations. ONe network has 30 Win 8.1 stations that none of them will take this update. Tried the "solutions" on three of them only to quit after workstation 3 since it's quite obvious I've wasted enough time for nothing already.

    THe other network location has 15 Win 8.1 stations and Server 2012R2. Same for every computer includthe server at this location. Only logical conclusion is that this update is broke. You are not going to convince me that I have 46 computers at two physically separate locations with the same exact problems and error messages, that the problem is on my end.

    It's weird because the second option should serve you which is for Windows 8.1.

    Now I would recommend you to backup your files and install Windows again
