[SOLVED] Cumulative Update 2024-3 Server Operating System Version 21h2 x64 (KB5035857) Failed to install

Hi,

Open an elevated command prompt and run the following command. Attach Dirlist.txt to your next post.
Code:
dir /s /a %systemroot%\WinSxS\x86_microsoft-windows-b..re-bootmanager-pcat_31bf3856ad364e35_10.0.20348.2340_none_0f83ce4c2d07fcf9 > "%userprofile%\Desktop\Dirlist.txt"
 
Please do the same for another component.
Code:
dir /s /a %systemroot%\WinSxS\amd64_microsoft-windows-s..gstack-boot-onecore_31bf3856ad364e35_10.0.20348.2334_none_fe3e7fb3a2b1400d > "%userprofile%\Desktop\Dirlist.txt"
 
Hmm, please attempt to update again with Process Monitor, hopefully this will show a bit more information about this issue.

Capture Process Monitor BootLog
1. Download and run Process Monitor. Leave this running while you perform the next steps.
2. Select the Options....Enable Boot Logging option. A Enable Boot Logging dialog will come up. Just click OK.
3. Create a folder on your desktop named BootLog.
4. Attempt to install the update just like you have in the past. Let the machine reboot and revert just like it has in the past.
5. After the machine has rebooted and come back up to the desktop, open Process Monitor again. A message box will come up telling you that a log of boot-time activity was created and ask if you wish to save it. Click Yes and save to the BootLog folder on your desktop.
6. This may take some time as it converts the boot-time data. Allow it to finish.
7. Zip up the entire BootLog folder on your desktop and upload to a file sharing service like: WeTransfer - Send Large Files & Share Photos Online - Up to 2GB Free
8. Attach also a new copy of the CBS for the time stamps.
 
Please upload a new copy of the SideBySide hive to look at. Zip SBS.hiv and attach it to your next post.
Code:
reg Save "HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\SideBySide" "%systemdrive%\SBS.hiv"

Which (third-party) security software is installed on this server?

In the Process Monitor log I noticed the MalwareBytes service was running as well as Wazuh!. I cases like this I would suggest to uninstall all the 3th-party security applications and then attempt to update again.
 
Yes there is only Malwarebytes installed. I can do the uninstall of course. I'm thankful that you are willing to help me in this matter! I will uninstall now and retry the update.
 
Oh yes, forgot to mention, sorry. I just recently added this. Wanted to try wazuh and check if i could get some more insights about my network. Should i also uninstall this one?
 
Yes, please uninstall this application as well. And restart the server after uninstalling both apps before attempting to update again.
 
Finally!! Thank you so much!! You're a real IT-Jedi!! Man, thank you so much!! I guess i can reinstall Malwarebytes and wazuh again? Really strange issue, i don't think it had to do with Wazuh, since no active response was configured. I forgot yo reboot after installation, but it still worked out.

Thanks & Regards!
 
This is great news, and you're welcome. Honestly, I have to admit I had never heard about 'Wazuh', but MalwareBytes is a well-known tool though and this was the culprit in this case, I guess.

If you want you can re-install both applications again, however, if you run into the same problems again! Uninstall them first....

I will mark this as solved....(y)
 
Thank you again! And for sure i will next time first uninstall malwarebytes! 😄 Wazuh seems pretty cool to give some more insights in a Domain for instance CIS Benchmarks for Windows Server. I could tight security quite a lot, since i saw the different recommendations for Domain Security. Since this domain it's just my playground, i gave it a shot. ;)

Keep up that excellent work!!

Thanks & Best Regards
