Hello,

The 2024-01 Security Update for Windows 10 Version 22H2 for x64-based Systems (KB5034441) will not install on my Windows 10 laptop computer.

I get the following message There were some problems installing updates, but we'll try again later. If you keep seeing this and want to search the web or contact support for information, this may help: (0x80070643) Retry

When I click on Retry it says its Installing-0% for a few minutes then Installed-100% and then I get Download Error (0x80070643) There were some problems installing updates, but we'll try again later. If you keep seeing this and want to search the web or contact support for information, this may help: (0x80070643) Retry

Windows Update Troubleshooter could not fix this problem.

I'm not sure what to do, please help.

Thank you

    Microsoft has shamelessly been dragging this for more than two months. Speaks volumes on how much they care for customer experience, or for the security of customers' data (this is meant to be a security update that should ideally be installed immediately upon release). Pathetic!

    Plenty of posters seem to have the same opinion of MS & its apparent lack of customer care & service, but this does not fix the problem... Where are the experts that can bring MS to the FIXIT stage...

    As PremSS pointed out, "THIS IS A SECURITY UPDATE" & should be given the priority it deserves, especially in view of current attacks that are going on worldwide hacking & stealing of personal data...

    So where are the EXPERTS that purport to tell us how to fix our problems when you need them... Ghosting!!!

    Here I was a few days ago, happy that the (MULTIPLE) failed install notifications had been erased from my download record by the MS Fairy, but I rejoiced too soon, as I just went to my update records there it was again!!!

    KB5034441 had attempted to install itself again on Monday 18.03.2024 AND AGAIN failed... WHY???

    Is Microsoft run by a complete gang of MORONS or what???

    Further to my previous reply/comments above........ I have just checked updates on my W10 'puter @ (20.02 WST 15.03.2024) AND I HAVE FOUND THAT ALL REFERENCE TO FAILED INSTALLS of KB5034441 have been completely removed from my downloads/install record... Where I had approximately 17 FAILED install notifications there is nothing now, not even a mention of KB5034441...

    I don't know why, there is nothing to indicate how this happened, I received no notification, & I have done nothing myself to alter this event on my 'Puter, a very strange event???

    Does anyone else have anything to report? It would be interesting to see it here...

    There are those of us who can't upgrade to W11 as it would be a major cost event to achieve an unnecessary software/hardware purchase to insignificant effect overall, but I don't suppose MICROSOFT really cares about that, just another "one eyed conglomerate"!!!
