Windows 8.1 Update KB4340558 Fails with Error Code 80092004

Hi guys,

same problem here.

Well, of course I can approve KB removal in WSUS, but tell me how I should run DISM command on 50 devices?

You might be able to do it using psexec to a text file with all the host names.

A little info on using psexec

I believe >psexec \* DISM.exe /online /Cleanup-Image /StartComponentCleanup

Would do every computer on the network, but TEST IT FIRST!!!!

I'm merely speculating on the command.

I'm using PsExec on daily basics but this is first time I see how powerfull it can be, thanks for the link ! :)

Same problem !!!

Same problem as everyone here...

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

You must be joking !!

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?

Lets do this in a bit more detail:

Save this page and other quoted in Favs or other in case you get lost!  This is not difficult.

No need for a re-install (OMG) of Win 8.1, but you have to download the three files in the update KB4340558 but in your version, either x32 or x64   Go to:

  https://www.catalog.update.microsoft.com/Search.aspx?q=KB4340558

and you should see both 32 and 64 versions.  Click 'download' for your version and you get a dropdown panel of three files - 4338415, 4338419, 4338424.  Each program needs to be clicked in turn to bring up the save/run panel.  Save each on in turn.

To re-find the 'downloaded' panel again go to Internet Explorer 'Tools' to find  it.

First one - the 4338415 - just click it to run it.  It gets the Windows Update Standalone Installer going to run this. 

Next, click the 4338424 and it should run too.  There may be a complaint from the WUSI about this but it seems to get on with the job - pretty slow.   At the end of this you are asked to 'reboot' so do this.  (Restart that is.  Do not do a 'Close' and then 'Start' as this is sometimes quite different to a 'Restart' command.

Now try to run 4338419 in the same manner.  It may not install as I believe it has a bug.

Thanks to all the previous writers for their input.
