There is a known problem with that update.

Best just to wait until it is fixed.

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.

There has been no action on this that I can see for any weeks. This kills the updates to other apps...

2024-01-28T15:10:29+00:00 I don't want to risk following this video clip I don't want to mess up my laptop. Do you know if Microsoft are working on the error? Will it be fixed soon?

2024-01-28T23:04:10+00:00 Edit: I didn’t think it worked, because it just seemed to take a long time. I actually shrank the size by 500 instead of the 250 in the video and it solved the problem.
I followed the instructions in this video exactly and it still didn’t work.
