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.

    The customer should not have to go through such a process. MS must address this issue and in a timely manner. We are not MS employee assigned to test their updates, we are their customers.

    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.

    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.

    I used EaseUS Partition Master (I swear I'm not on commission) to resize the recovery partition to 1024. This took about 10minutes to process and reboot. The update then installed fine.

    That is good news for you but we "should not" have to resort to a third party website that I know 

    nothing about except for the reviews in order to install a security update that MS should not 

    even have sent out to begin with as it is a brick update. It is not much of a security update if 

    one has to go to third party websites to install it. It can sit in my update queue until MS 

    fixes "their " problem and grow digital cobwebs on it. I see you just joined MS Community
