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.

    I am truly happy for you. But I am not messing around with the command prompt. This is MS responsible to fix!!

    Granted. This is totally Microsoft's problem to fix and it's a crime that they haven't fixed it yet. There's nothing special about my computer hardware or software setup.

    By the way, EaseUS Partition Master Pro has a graphical UI; no command line stuff is necessary. However, one should still have a good understanding of OS partitioning procedures. And it is not free - I had to pay for my 30 day license.

    One more reason to continue my transition to IOS and Linux as Microsoft makes my hardware obsolete.

    Why is that? :D

    FIX IS HERE --- > KB5028997: Instructions to manually resize your partition to install the WinRE update - Microsoft Support

    This could be failing because your Windows RE partition needs 250mb extra space.

    Follow the instructions linked above. Worked for me.
