2023-11 Cumulative Update for Windows 11 Version 22H2 for x64-based Systems (KB5032190) will not install successfully.
I get no error code. The update appears to run successfully until the end of the second reboot and then it says something did not go as planned.
Each time the update fails, W U plans to run the update again. Please read carefully what I list as solutions I have tried:
removed all non-necessary devices
ran scannow
ran troubleshooters
ran net stop bits net stop wuauserv net stop cryptsvc ren %systemroot%\softwaredistribution softwaredistribution.bak ren %systemroot%\system32\catroot2 catroot2.bak net start bits net start wuauserv net start cryptsvc
conducted a clean boot, reran update unsuccessfully
uninstalled my AVG antivirus and Acronus Backup and reran update unsuccessfully
had two calls with microsoft support and no success
tried to run the update manually but get the message the update is already installed (downloaded and ready to install I presume)
My system is a desktop:
Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-7820X CPU @ 3.60GHz 3.60 GH,
RAM 32.0 GB
C drive has 526 GB free of 930 GB
64-bit operating system, x64-based processor,
Windows 11 Pro, 6/18/2023, 22621.2134, Windows Feature Experience Pack 1000.22659.1000.0
This is a scratch rebuild from last June after update cratered my system and I could not recover a bootable system.
At least now an update failure rolls back successfully.
I am out of solutions that I can find on the internet. Any help will be greatly appreciated! Over 30 hours of time spent on this.
Locked Question. This question was migrated from the Microsoft Support Community. You can vote on whether it's helpful, but you can't add comments or replies or follow the question.
After 8 more days of working on this I have not been able to make any progress. I suggest you do not follow this thread as nothing positive has come of it. I followed a lot of suggestions but nothing has worked. Microsoft tech support is worthless and nothing recommended here has worked.

If a self build have you updated drivers/bios from the mobo maker?
Did you run the whole SFC/DISM process?
