My computer is a DELL Optiplex 3020. Both recent cumulative updates (KB5018410 and KB5016616) have failed on installation. The code is 0x800f0845. I have tried all the suggested things to try to get the update to go through up to an in-place update. All other updates go through with no problem. Just the cumulative updates. I have version 21H2 build 19044.1826.

    I have around 150 machines currently rebooting daily and reverting with "Automatic Repair" while we wait for Microsoft to acknowledge and fix this!

    Symptom:

    Installation Failure: Windows failed to install the following update with error 0x800F0845: 2022-10 Cumulative Update for Windows 10

    Stop Code: SYSTEM THREAD EXCEPTION NOT HANDLED

    Issues:

    Microsoft has broken "Microsoft NVM Express Controller" in 2022-10

    Suggestions:

    If you have a Samsung NVMe\M.2 installed in your device you can download their driver and 2022-10 will install properly. (You can check in Device Manager under Storage Controllers)

    I have been hoping for others to follow and join this thread: https://www.bleepingcomputer.com/forums/t/778385/kb5018410-2022-10-cumulative-update-fails-0x800f0845-on-windows-10-21h1-32bit/

    Also Note, I have installed 22H2 from scratch which installed and again after loading the 2022-10 Cumulative Blue Screens.

    I would recommend if you don't want to or are scared to change your M.2 Driver just wait for Microsoft to fix this.... Inplace updates and SFC and DISM wont fix this.... you will only make things worse.

    HTH,
