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.

    "2024-01 Security Update for Windows 10 Version 22H2 for x64-based Systems (KB5034441)"

    is A PRETTY SERIOUS update since it's a SECURITY UPDATE!

    SO, this issue has been existing for some-time now. It seems to me that MICROSOFT should provide feedback to its users as to the time-line for the REMEDY... Ya THINK?

    And many of us are sitting here with company-issued devices on which we dare not fiddle with partition sizes. All we can do is file a ticket with our IT helpdesks asking how to proceed, and otherwise simply wait for a Microsoft fix that is approved by our IT department. I can imagine Microsoft doing a fix that just makes the machine forget about and quit asking for the faulty update, makes sure other updates can happen normally, and on we go. No, I'm not holding my breath on that, but I do have little option but to wait for a fix.

    The reason Microsoft's not fixing this is because quite frankly... they just don't care. It's sad to say but, we know it's true. So the ultimate fix is the next time you need a new computer by a Mac.
