Please uninstall ESET using the applicable uninstall tool.




Make sure that Microsoft defender is on.

Various things can cause an update to fail so it's like playing 'whack a mole'. One or several of these things should help. I usually cut to the chase and do steps 1-5 before trying WU again. If that doesn't work, then I'll do 6-7. Do step 8 as a last resort.


1. Disable all third party AV completely, including Malwarebytes. Make sure no instance is running in task manager.

2. Disconnect all non-essential hardware like external drives and docks. Check device Manager for any missing drivers. (look for yellow exclamation mark)

3. Run troubleshooter-settings-system-troubleshoot-other troubleshooters-windows update-RUN.

4. Reset WU Reset Windows Update in Windows 11 Tutorial

5. If you use one, uninstall ANY third party app that alters the GUI. Restart and try WU again.

6. CLEAN UP COMPONENT STORE – Open a command prompt as administrator and type
dism /online /cleanup-image /startcomponentcleanup
Reference: Analyze and Clean Up Component Store (WinSxS folder) in Windows 11 Tutorial

7. Verify there are no corrupt system files going into the update.
Open a command prompt as administrator and type sfc /scannow
Pay attention to the scan results to see if SFC found anything it could not repair. If it found corruption it could not fix followup with this command (note the spaces)
dism /online /cleanup-image /restorehealth
Restart computer
(Note-you can follow up with another sfc /scannow command to make sure that dism repaired the files)

8. If it still fails, do a repair install of windows Repair Install Windows 11 with an In-place Upgrade Tutorial

I have this exact same problem on a recent Windows 11 installation – OS installed from scratch on a separate partition to the factory- installed copy of windows 10. When I can find the time, I will try to use the information here to fix it.

I have also had similar update failures on two other machines, both running Windows 10 because the hardware won't support 11, over a period of several months. I've been using Windows for decades, and always try to install the latest updates when Windows notifies me. This has always worked without problems until recently, I'd say the last 6 months or so.

So I have a more fundamental question: why is it that these problems seem to be occurring much more frequently now than previously? I'd be interested to hear forum-users views on this.

Uninstalled ESET but I can't turn on Windows Defender because I removed it.
I'm trying a clean install right now.

Hi, I followed your guide at point 8, it's easier form me... I work all the damn day.
Let's see what happens in a few minutes...
Your help is much appreciated

EDIT: update in progress from half hour... is it normal?

When available post the V2 using English as the default language.

Had you started an in place upgrade repair?

Desktop or flash drive MCT (Windows 11 iso)?

What are you seeing on the monitor now?

fixed everything !
all updates done.
I promise to update the thread tomorrow so maybe It can help someone else with the same problems.
I'm really tired now, 4 am and I'm goint to work a 8... sick life
thanks a lot guys, see you tomorrow (today) evening.

Please run Tuneup plus > post a share link





Indicate if defender is running.

Post a new V2 share link.



What had happened with the in place upgrade repair?

It was a clean install?

To download Tuneup plus from your link I must be registered; can't do it right now, I will do it tomorrow.

Summary of my problem:
I couldn't install windows updates

Cause of the problem in my opinion:
I had used various debloating software to lighten windows and I had permanently removed Windows Security by installing another antivirus (ESETnod 32)

How I solved the problem:
I uninstalled ESETnod32 and went directly to point 8 of the guide posted by @glasskuter because I had previously already tried all the other solutions.

V2 link as you requested:

"What had happened with the in place upgrade repair?"
"It was a clean install?"

I used the same flash drive I had used to install Windows 11, I used the following guide:

as I said before I'll download Tuneup plus and use it tomorrow, let me know if you need more information so I can help other people with the same problem

Anyway Windows security is a pain the ass honestly, I hate it !!!
How can I remove it without causing problems like upgrading and other stuff ?

Were there any recent hangs or freezes with manual power offs or unexpected shutdowns and restarts with or without BSOD?

When available post tuneup plus results.
