Windows 10 update installation failure.

Microsoft’s Windows updates are infamous for causing various kinds of problems. The latest Windows 10 security update that was rolled out on August 11 is reportedly failing to install for several users.

The new updates are affecting laptops and PCs which run the November 2019 Update (2019) and May 2020 Update (2004), according to a report by Windows Latest. This is for the Windows 10 KB4565351 and KB4566782 updates which show error messages of the updates failing to install on the system. The error messages mention mostly 0x800f081f as the error code. This could be due to “missing files in the WinSXS folder that stores different copies of DLL and system files”, the report adds.
