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.

    Your right, and that is what so many will do. However, you must have a PC that will run Win 11. There are millions that will not run it due to the TMP 2.0 issue.

    To keep these dinosaurs going, and keep people from going broke, Microsoft is allowing support for another year. There is a lot of crappola to put up with.

    Bingo, me too. I've had my Dell Inspiron 3668 since Aug 2017. I plan on keeping it until 10/2025 when Win10 reaches end of life.

    Win12 is scheduled to be on the market autumn\2024. So, why bother with this stupid calamity of an "update"? NOTHING should be this difficult; but, if it is, then it is a failure. Just ignore it and have a good backup for your data (i use OneDrive).

    I work in a university with many operating sistems. The most used is Windows 10 and still some machines works with W7 until this year we gonna update to W10. In our experience, jump the problematic versions of windows saves money and time for the IT department. We go from 98, to 2000 and XP, then pass to W7 and we still are in W10. We run out from vista and W8 for our mental health. W11 is a transition windows, so we wait to W12 to do the update, but after W12 has a year of life we gonna make the update, every new windows has a insane cycle of updates the first months of life.
