I keep trying install this update yet it keeps failing. I already ran troubleshooter said it resolved the issue but the error persists. I also disabled my antivirus and tried again still did not work And I keep getting error (0x80070643) Is this a known issue? All the other updates installed fine without issue.
Locked Question. This question was migrated from the Microsoft Support Community. You can vote on whether it's helpful, but you can't add comments or replies or follow the question.
My workaround was to reinstall windows, keeping my documents and settings. This procedure is simple to undertake, as it realigns the hard drive recovery partition in which the update fault lies.
It is not worth all that headache for a Security Update that should not have failed to begin with. I have done reinstalls several times and it is not fun. It can sit in my update queue until MS
fixes "their " problem and grow digital cobwebs on it.
it failed on my fresh install.
I'll wait until microsoft releases a tool. nothing good ever comes from using external software to fix security patches.
The suggested fix for error 0x80070643 when trying to install KB 5034441 is supposed to be KB 5028997. I tried the fix and it wouldn't allow me to change the size of the partition. Sure hope someone has another fix to try, the one recommended didn't work for me.
Why isn't Microsoft providing any guidance in response to this flawed update? A brief update as to the timeline for correction would be a tremendous help. It's absurd to just speculate on theories from users. The recommendations that we use companies / fixes that are unknown and untested by the end user... is not a valid answer. Microsoft created this problem. They need to address it ASAP.
This fix DOES NOT work for everyone!!! I was not allowed to change the size of the partition! So I still can't install the update.
