A legal inquiry.
For the "geniuses" who are telling us to extend/expand the partition. 558MB is greater than 500MB, for those parts of the world (excluding Microsoft and Redmond) that understand basic math.
Yet it continues to fail. Over and over.
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.

This is to tell you you can have the program not solve your issue at no cost. I could have created a recovery partition and not only move but resize it, and I will if you want me to.

2024-02-20T15:04:13+00:00 I don't know what the magical min size is; but a Recovery Partition size of 1500 MB (1.5 GB) has worked for me on two different Win10 machines (one Home and one Pro).
