I've finally fixed the issue where every time I check for Windows Updates, "Update for Windows Security platform - KB5007651 (Version 10.0.27777.1008)" shows up constantly. It says it installs and completed, but the next time I check for Windows Updates, it's back.

I know a lot of people have had this issue, so just posting this as something for you to try. It fixed it for me and might for you.

I use Eset NOD32 antivirus software (AV). After reading a post from Google from a chap with a different AV, he uninstalled his AV and it fixed the reinstalling update issue.

So, I paused my NOD32 (I didn't uninstall it), checked for Windows Updates again and the update said complete and it has not returned again.

It looks like NOD32 was preventing KB5007651 from being installed correctly. This might not just be related to ESET NOD32 but may also occur with other third party AV products. It's worth a try if you are plagued by this issue.

The case fan and CPU cooler were after purchase upgrades...the i7 cpu runs hot and the OE solution can best be described as marginal when CPU intensive apps are used.
ALSO added VRM and SSD passive heatsinks.

Awesome job sir! When I reinstalled 26100.3902 to deal with install issues trying to upgrade to 26100.3915 the issue returned. Sadly the manual download command did not work. Neither did any of my previous tactics. I have Norton for my antivirus and I just attempted to turn off the firewall in Norton and give it a go.

It failed. KB5007651 still was trying to install over and over. When I disabled Norton it failed over to Windows Defender firewall. I did exactly the same as you did. I disabled Windows Defender Firewall. Did the update. Tried it again and it did NOT come back!!!! Awesome!!!

Thank you! I have seen this happen in the past so I now know what is causing it. Also a major thank you to thecaretaker as well!

Thanks gents!

You shouldn’t have needed to go to Google for this, it’s a shame the answer hasn’t been more prominent here. I read it in many threads on this forum and push the fix myself.
The cause for many KB install issues is 3rd party antivirus programs and on some occasions, the AV and/or temporarily disabling Secure Boot.

Big Thank you !!!!
