Failed automatic update - KB4489899 and KB4486553

Hello TanerS, my name is Irisdiel and I am an independent advisor.

I suggest you follow the instructions and methods down below to fix your issue.

Solution 1 – Change Windows Update settings

Open the Settings app. You can do that quickly by pressing Windows Key + I shortcut.

When Settings app opens, go to Update & Security section.

Navigate to Advanced options.

Now disable Give me updates for other Microsoft products when I update Windows option.

Scroll down and navigate to Delivery Optimization section.

Locate Allow downloads from other PCs option and disable it.

After making these changes, check if the problems with automatic updates are resolved.

Solution 2 – Free up some space

Press Windows Key + S and enter disk cleanup. Choose Disk Cleanup from the list of results.

Select your system drive and click OK.

Disk Cleanup will now scan your drive. This can take a couple of seconds, so don’t interrupt it.

When Disk Cleanup window opens, you’ll see a list of files. Select the files you want to remove and click OK.

Solution 3 – Run Windows Update troubleshooter

Open the Settings app and go to Update & Security section.

Select Troubleshoot from the left pane. Select Windows Update from the list and click Run the troubleshooter button.

The troubleshooter will now start and try to fix the problems automatically. Once the troubleshooter is finished, check if the problem is resolved.

Hope this helps!

Thank you and uck,

Regards- Irisdiel H.

Nope.  Thanks.

Hello TanerS,

My name is Patricia and I am an Independent Advisor. I am here to help you today.

This din't work.  Thanks.

I did find this Microsoft site which might be helpful.   This is from 2017 and I have not tried doing the procedure.

https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/dotnet/framework/install/repair

The error on the .Net framework update seems to indicate the Configuration registry database is corrupt.  I suppose something like that could cause a problem for an installer in regards to the 1809 Cumulative Update.

There is probably a way to repair your .Net install but I need to do some research, unless someone else already knows.

Actually this may be a good idea if you can help me solve it.

Thanks,

Taner

Hi Taner. I'm Greg, an installation specialist and 9 year Windows MVP here to help you.

Most Updates will sort themselves out in a few days so I'd wait to see. If not then here are steps you can take:

1. There is a new guided walk-through from Microsoft for repairing Windows Update that leads up to resetting components if necessary: https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/help/10164/.... Try running that first.
2. If that fails try manually resetting Windows Update Service:

Open administrative Command Prompt and type following commands one-by-one followed by Enter key.

net stop wuauserv

net stop cryptSvc

net stop bits

net stop msiserver

Ren C:\Windows\SoftwareDistribution SoftwareDistribution.old

Ren C:\Windows\System32\catroot2 Catroot2.old

net start wuauserv

net start cryptSvc

net start bits

net start msiserver

Close Command Prompt and see if Windows Updates works then

3. You can also install the Updates manually that fail to install which are logged at Settings > Update & Security > Windows Update > Installed Update History, and then search for those to download and install from this Catalog: http://test.catalog.update.microsoft.com/v7/sit...
4. If they continue to fail and interfere, then you can block them using one of these methods: https://www.howtogeek.com/224471/how-to-prevent...
5. What I'd do at this point if you haven't yet is install latest Version 1809 by installing Media Creation Tool from this link and choose Upgrade This PC Now: http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows-10/m...

This is the most stable way to change to the newer version and because it reinstalls WIndows while keeping your files and programs in place, fixes most problems. It also brings all Windows Updates to date.

If there are any hurdles during install then these steps can overcome them: http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/wiki...

6. If problems with Updates have become chronic and especially if you have other performance problems, be aware that what we have found is that in Windows 10 everything depends on the quality of the underlying install, the same reason enthusiasts have never run Factory or Upgrade installs because they know there would be endless issues.

For example there have been zero return problems by those who follow the gold standard Clean Install here: http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/wiki.... It is better and faster than any previous version of Windows, and a better install than any amount of money could buy. So when you get time I'd study over that to see if it's something I can help you do.

There is also an automated Fresh Start that reinstalls Windows while shedding factory bloatware that can cause issues and affect performance, saves your files, but doesn't clear the drive to get it cleanest: https://www.howtogeek.com/265054/how-to-easily-...

I hope this helps. Feel free to ask back any questions and let us know how it goes. I will keep working with you until it's resolved.
