Others' (https://www.reddit.com/r/Windows10/comments/192l9kj/cumulative_updates_january_9th_2024/kh32u6f/) and my updated 64-bit W10 Pro. 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. I already rebooted once from other today's updates:

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

    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.

    OK, for those of us who already have it downloaded but only get the install error, how do we get past that so we can get future updates?? Simple language, please.

    Run regular Windows PowerShell (non-ISE version) as administrator.

    Execute the following four commands one at a time, exactly as written (type or copy and paste, then press "enter").

    Install-Module PSWindowsUpdate

    Get-WindowsUpdate

    Hide-WindowsUpdate -KBArticleID KB5034441

    exit

    Or you can just ignore the error message. It doesn't interfere with other updates.
