PCs, I'm getting "Status: Download error - 0x80070643" with "2024-01 Security Update for Windows 10 Version 22H2 for x64-based Systems (KB5034441)" in 64-bit W10 Pro. right now.

Couldn't MS do this to its users automatically without having to do it manually for non-technical users? :/

    seems we are all running into same problem. I am glad I was able to find lots of threads about this. my conclusion from reading is wait for Microsoft to resolve it by fixing it first. I am not going to start fooling around with my pc to try to fix it as I am not an expert on all that and if this has to do with one thing Bit locker I will wait. hopefully enough people reply or submit a post so that they see there is a wide issue with this and they will get it done soon. I don't think this interfers with other updates they may send right so those should work when they do. I been trying to install it for some time but it is not possible. I also have Win 10. 64 bit

    From their info page about it, Microsoft knows it fails on some systems and has pulled it.

    I'd just wait and it'll probably show up again in fixed form at some point.

    Why send updates when they don't work? Please delete this update.

    Dear Microsoft, shouldn't there be a button to cancel the windows update ((KB5034441) when it failed to give a proper update? Or probably cancel the entire update when error is encountered rather attempting to do a failed update? What are you doing about this error that keeps popping up when I try to do other windows update?
