2023-02 Cumulative Update for Windows 10 Version 22H2 for x64-based Systems (KB5022834) will not update for the past month.

The message "We couldn't complete the updates. Undoing changes" keeps appearing.

I am on

Edition: Windows 10 Home

Version: 22H2

Installed on: 25/12/2020

OS Build: 19045.2251

Experience: Windows Feature Experience Pack 120.2212.4180.0

I have tried running the Windows Update troubleshooter.

I am unsure what else to do as I am a newbie at this.

I would appreciate any assistance with this.

Thanks in advance.

    This has happened to me at least once a year since I migrated or installed a new paid-for version of Windows 10 Professional (or 7 and Windows 20xx server and...) Updates do not complete and revert back, and most of the messages refer to the usual: not enough space on the 500mb partition that is used for restoring Windows, .NET incompatibilities or some errant program Windows doesn't understand or like, and of course the old "just reinstall Windows and waste your entire weekend" solution. I have tried all 3 at one time or another but it's generally not worth the time and effort on the reinstall Windows. I, like many people that work on PCs for a living do: just skip the errant update until the MSoft engineers create another that does function and does install. Indeed, there will be security issues that occur if you do not update (as if this is NEVER THE CASE). But I create regular backups internally and externally with multiple programs protecting me against malware, viruses, and encryption schemes. I don't trust no one. Even MSoft.

    So it goes.

    Same problem

    Update blocking the OS - Cumulative Update for Windows 10 Version 22H2 for x64-based Systems (KB5022834)

    KB5022834 cannot be installed and is jamming and overheating the system (high proc activity, temp of the proc 95%, risk of Hardware damage). Had to rollback the system with Rollback RX Pro. wushowhide.diagcab is not hiding the bad update so that nothing can be installed. I seriously think about moving to Linux due to the cumulative problems of Windows. Lost 45 minutes of my professional time.
