Windows update (KB5034441) Error (0x80070643)

When I tried to install the windows update "2024-01 Security Update for Windows 10 Version 22H2 for x64-based Systems (KB5034441)" I received the error code (0x80070643).

I have already tried, restarting my computer, waiting a bit before retrying, running a memory diagnostic check, checking all my drivers for updates, installing optional updates, and running a malware scan.

When I tried to run the windows update troubleshooter it said "diagnosing problems" but never fixed them and I was still unable to install the update after running the trouble shooter.

Any help would be appreciated.

    Hello sir, why did you pause the updates?

    I always pause the updates. I want the updates done when I want them done. I only allow it once a month and only on my schedule. I have satellite internet.

    Microsoft has been going down the tubes for awhile now.

    I agree with what you wrote... Tell everyone to buy a MAC.

    After the update failure of 1/29 on my W10 pro computers, I did download and run wushowhide.diagcab on 2/2 on my main computer. It found nothing to do. When looking at the Update History page, I see no evidence of the failed update. It's all gone.

    I finally got around to looking at diskmgmt this morning. I still have a 498 mb recovery partition and a 100 mb EFI system partition on my Samsung SSD main drive.

    Meanwhile, updates are paused until 3/4 on all computers.

    It seems Microsoft would like you to get a PC with Windows 11 OS. No Win 11 PC's I have displayed this error. It seems this issue is only on older Win 10 MBR HD's. These have been upgraded from earlier Windows to Win 10, I am not sure if that has anything to do with this. If this is really about the WinRE Partition, then it might be necessary to do a full Windows recovery. It is somewhat tricky to add space to the beginning and end of a multi-partitioned drive. I may just do this to a PC for fun and see if it resolves the issue. Will go to a GPT drive / install which is available on some higher-end older PCs.
