Windows 11 Cumulative Update not downloading and installing.

Dell XPS 8940 Intel I7-11700, 16GB RAM 500GB BC711 NVMe SK hy Drive with 227Gb free with Windows security.

Repeatedly failed to install 2022-06 Cumulative Update for Windows 11 for x64-based Systems (KB5014697) until 6/14, when it finally installed automatically.

Currently failing to install 2022-07 Cumulative Update for Windows 11 for x64-based Systems (KB5015814) despite all efforts short of an ISO repair install.

I'm going to sit on this for a while and see if last month's behavior repeats.

Of course, no one is finding a solution. They are looking at the wrong problem.

We have four Windows 11 Professional computer in our home/office.

Two of them have had no problem updating.

Two of them have failed with the current 2022-07 Cumulative Update for Windows 11 for x64-based Systems (KB5015814)

The successful installations had the following pertinent factors:

1. One was a Dell XPS 8950 with a hybrid non-SSD boot drive/500 GB SSD data extension with McAfee AV
2. One was a Windows laptop with a 500 GB SSD with Windows Security

The unsuccessful installations were on two computers of different age, but with the following pertinent factors:

1. One was a Dell XPS 8950 with a 1TB M.2 PCIe NVMe Solid State Drive with Malwarebytes for one failure and Windows Security for second failure
2. One was a Dell XPS 8950 with a 1TB M.2 PCIe NVMe Solid State Drive with Windows Security

So we can rule out:

machine model or type (in itself)

Malware protection type

We cannot rule out:

SSD OS drive

Boot drive size

Dell XPS (in combination with drive type, drive size)

Can anyone add data to this statistical analysis?

Thank you, my computer has an 11th Gen Intel Core i7119G7 processor and 16GB of RAM. I've reistalled the OS and done factory resets. It's a Dell XPS13 7310. I was able to fix it last week and made a recovery drive. I believe there might be a bug somewhere. Either in the hardware, Dell or the OS software.

if your PC is something with a processor which was made somewhere around the i3 releases or a low RAM like 4-6 GB ram then you probably need to upgrade your computer or go back to windows 10 as that will run better for you, I'd also like to mention that this update actually is mostly just minor tweaks to the security in your system so it might not affect your performance

How exasperating and well said, due to their ERRORS!!! my laptop has become super slow and sometimes it freezes! How I wish never updated to WINDOWS 11. What a pity that consumers are treated like this. Anyway, we wait and I'll avoid throwing the laptop out the WINDOWS!! :) . Good luck and keep fighting!
