[SOLVED] Server 2019 - Error 0x800f0986

This did the trick! I had to manually take ownership and set ntfs rights of the winsxs folder because the folder "amd64_microsoft-windows-appmanagement-uevwow_31bf3856ad364e35_10.0.17763.1_none_37fc55b8be8a44ae" did not exist and had to create it manually. And restored the rights and ownership manually after creating the folder.

The server has installed the update, rebooted and says You're up to date!
Thank you very much for your help, I could not have fixed this by myself.
 
You're welcome and glad to hear the problem has been resolved... (y)

Usually, it is a lot easier to use SFCFix to apply the same fixes, and/or to re-create missing folders and to restore the permissions.
