I wasn't responding to other users I was responding to you. You said stuff that made me believe you were a novice.
I'm sure if what I posted was too complicated for a novice user they would just ignore my post.

Upgrade to Microsoft Edge to take advantage of the latest features, security updates, and technical support.
OK. I tried to run updates today, 7/12. I got the exact error and reactions as when I tried to install KB5015814 that I got for the KB5014668 failure last month.
I ran scripts, tried a lot of advisor recommendations and did the in place upgrade (but rolled it back) for KB5014668 so who knows what was changed or broken then????
Does anyone have something that WILL work this time? I really don't want to spend 5 or 6 hours and get no where again.
Will an in place upgrade work or will restoring an image from before June 22 be a better option. I don't want to do that unless it's a last option.
Please don't have me run the canned things to correct an update error. It didn't work last time so I really would like something that is known to work if that is at all possible.
Thanks.
edited..... 3 other updates did install without issue:
Intel SoftwareComponent 2130.1.15.0
Security Intelligence Update KB2267602
Malicious Software Removal Tool KB890830

I run Armoury Crate so i don't think that's the problem. Have you tried turning off .Net Framework 3.5 (includes .Net 2.0 and 3.0)?
Failing, AMD Ryzen system, MalwareBytes installed. Rebooted, power off reboot, MalwareBytes disabled 12 different attempts and still no joy.
Error message Update failed to install - 0x8000ffff
I will wait for a patch for the patch.

The unfortunate thing about the "fixes" for this problem is some things work for some while the same things don't work for others. For others it takes multiple steps to fix it. And sadly some aren't finding a fix at all.
I'm pretty sure MS will get around to this issue but I wouldn't hold my breath on how fast this happens. Hopefully it will be before the 22H2 update shows up or maybe that will be the fix.
I was getting all the security and .NET Framework updates okay so the cumulative updates were/are the only thing being affected and I assume this is the case for everyone else???? So you if you have the time and energy you can keep trying what you see is working for others in this thread or just wait it out.
