KB4493509 fails to install

Hello everyone,

this is the first update since upgrade to 1809 that fails to install. I tried everything. Manual downloading, but even manual installing at the end just shows message, that the update couldn't be installed, without any errors. At Windows Update, it's shown an error 0x800f0982. I've done sfc /scannow, no corrupted files. I've done Restorehealth etc, and the error is still there. This is the first time that has happened to me. So should I wait for next update? Or what to do?

    CCleaner is not a problem. I blocked it from startup, and this problem for update is still there. I blocked all third programs, and that's not the problem.

    It has now. But, as you say, it is your decision.

    Okey, I will take that advice, and do backup before upgrade to 1903. Thank You very much! :)

    It is good to also make a separate drag/drop backup of important downloads & user files onto external media (as you say), even though those are included in (& are individually retrievable from) a Windows system image backup (as in that other thread). The system image backup is really useful to undo a catastrophic failure, like an unbootable/unrepairable system. I made one before trying a clean install (thinking my Dell OEM wouldn't like it), but didn't have to use it. All went well.
