Unable to update (KB5034441) using below links

Yesterday they said that they are working on this update. We will get an update soon.

Hi Ramesh, after running the command "shrink desired=250 minimum=250", I cannot see any WinRe partition to carry on to the next step:

To select the WinRE partition, run sel part<WinRE partition index>

I see only this:

The shrink command show this in diskpartition (it creates 252mb unallocated space which I can't seem to do anything with now):

Where is the WinRE index mentioned, and how can I resolve this please?

FYI -

Here are the exact steps I used on many Windows 10 Pro x64 systems to correct this KB5034441 error.

Restart Windows 10. Install KB5034441 through Windows Update without error.

You don't need to expand the WinRE partition because its capacity is 893 MB, which should be sufficient.

Please start a new thread so that I can post specific instructions for your system.

Also, see my post below - pasted from another thread:

Microsoft is working on a fix. Until then, you may ignore the Windows Update error 0x80070643 and wait for an official fix.

Important: Follow the workaround only if you're comfortable with the diskpart console tool because it can be a risky procedure. Otherwise, please start a new thread and seek the assistance of an IA or moderator.

Workaround: Resizing the Recovery partition to 750 MB or more will fix the issue. The error occurs due to a lack of free disk space in the Recovery partition.

Caveat: The above Microsoft article assumes the Recovery partition is situated next to the OS partition. That's not necessarily the case in many systems. So, a different approach has to be followed on systems where the Recovery partition is not located near the OS partition. In that case, please start a new thread and seek the assistance of an advisor or volunteer moderator.
