3/15/2023 update: KB5023706 (March update on patch Tuesday) still has the same issue.

Original:

Hi all,

I'm having this issue installing KB5022913. The OS version is 22621.1325 (exit the beta insider channel days ago).

For more information, my machine is ASUS ROG Flow Z13 (2022) with i9-12900H, 32GB RAM, 2TB WD SN740, and RTX 3050ti Laptop graphics card.

Here's the CBS.log:

The problem has been fixed through reinstalling windows 11

There's no need to reinstall the whole OS.

Uninstall the enablement packages, delete registry key WindowsSelfHost, delete folder SoftwareDistribution, disable optional diagnostics and restart.

Then check for updates and/or optional updates.

    The problem has been fixed through reinstalling windows 11

    Uninstall the enablement packages, delete registry key WindowsSelfHost, delete folder SoftwareDistribution, disable optional diagnostics and restart.

    Then check for updates and/or optional updates.

    The problem is now fixed on my PC.

    I had no enablement package to delete. So i did not.

    I deleted the WindowsSelfHost registry branch

    I deleted the SoftwareDistrubution folder and restartet.

    When running windows update it download Windows 11 22H2. After a restart i have version 22621.1413 (before i had 22621.13xx)

    Also i am not longer part of WIP

    Thanks for the help Sibro.o

    Congrats

    Thanks @Sibro.o!

    Somehow I can't uninstall the update packages before. Maybe because I have cleaned up the update records in C. A very bad habit.

    Anyone who still suffers from this annoying issue can operate according to Sibro.o's instruction.

    Tried and failed. Don't know what to do next. How can we make our feedbacks be noticed by the developer?

    All: For you with continuing trouble, did you

    • start in beta or some insider build?
    • Go through the off-ramp process?
    • end up, in fact, in non-beta as shown in Windows Update settings?

    Just asking becasue I've lost track of what's happened to people here.

    I got through somehow, but first I when through these steps:

    • 10 Feb Cumulative Update for Windows 11 Insider Preview (10.0.22623.1255) (KB5022918)
    • 14 Feb 2023-02 Cumulative Update for .NET Framework 3.5 and 4.8.1 for Windows 11, version 22H2 for x64 (KB5022497)
    • 17 Feb Cumulative Update for Windows 11 Insider Preview (10.0.22623.1325) (KB5022914)
    • 19 Feb Update Stack Package - (Version 1023.201.1012.0)
    • 15 Mar Windows 11, version 22H2 (no KB nor number listed, turned out to be 22621.1413 KB5023706

    Note KB5022913 does not show as ever installing.

    Hope that helps.

    Edited to show KB5023706

    Hi Captain_Eric1,

    My situation is same with @Nero Lee 929. The system version is 22621.1325.

    • I was originally in beta build; and I applied for withdraw.
    • I have gone through the off-ramp process.
    • I ended up in non-beta in Windows Update settings.

    The process I have gone through is same with you but

    I got an error when updating KB5023706, pushed yesterday.

    The same error code 0x800f081f as the one, which appeared when I try to update KB5022913.

    Note KB5023706 takes the place of KB5022913.
