In my settings it says that the 2024-07 Cumulative Update for Windows 11 Version 23H2 for x64-based Systems (KB5040442) and the 2024-07 Cumulative Update for .NET Framework 3.5 and 4.8.1 for Windows 11, version 23H2 for x64 (KB5039895) is ready to be downloaded and installed but as I proceed with the update it keeps saying there was an error and the update will not install. I have tried restarting my PC and looking in my bios to find a problem but my troubleshooting has not worked.

So what's the problem, if it's common to a lot of users, and why doesn't MS find a fix themselves rather than putting the responsibility onto customers? My 70 year-old parents couldn't follow these instructions, they wouldn't have the first clue. We're all supposed to be IT experts now just to make basic MS systems work properly?

0x80248007 occurs because of a stale Windows Update cache. Please run winver.exe and post the reported OS build number. If it says 22621.3880, your system is up-to-date.
