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 done all that several times. No help. From other comments, it seems to apply mostly to DELL computers. Is there something different about them that causes problems with the latest cumulative updates?

    HI,

    Sorry if it still didn't help.

    I will now recommend that you try to repair Install Windows 10 with an In-place Upgrade again to fix the system.

    You can follow the guide from the link below.

    After successfully installing the In-place upgrade, try to manually download and install the update again.

    I hope this helps. Feel free to ask back any questions and keep me posted.
