Thank you so much Microsoft as you have started the New Year off with bang with this update failure below on the first patch Tuesday of the year:

Installation Failure: Windows failed to install the following update with error 0x8024200B: 2024-01 Security Update for Windows 10 Version 22H2 for x64-based Systems (KB5034441).

Tried multiple times to install this brick but no luck on my OMEN desktop and my wife's Envy laptop. So now what Microsoft?

    Elise,

    If Microsoft is going to deny the end user the ability to determine the updates that are installed, then they should darn well make sure that the updates install correctly and function correctly. KB5034441 does neither of those things. Furthermore, it should not be incumbent upon the consumer to fix this themselves.

    If it's Microsoft's intent to drive users away from Windows and into Linux, this is a great way of doing it. I suggest Microsoft gets busy and starts making a product that isn't riddles with bugs and defects.

    This is terrible. I've lost a lot of productivity doing searches for answers. I've had to stop the updates altogether just to get back work. This is really bad, and I've been using Windows since the very early 90s. I would like to continue using Windows 10 for as long as possible, especially since it works better than anything else on this system and Win11 is a no-go. I can understand wanting more people to understand how things work under the hood, but I've got bad eyes after all these years and would like a fix that doesn't require a command prompt. The whole point of GUI was to get work done faster and more efficiently without having to going into system files making changes which could be disastrous if you don't know what you're doing.
