Windows Update Standalone Installer Error 0x8007000d when installing a cumulative update


Question

Hi there, I'm on an HP Pavilion x360 runnin Windows 10 1607 14393.0. I'm trying to download an update to 14393.576 due to some bugs in the current system that is making my battery life shorter. I went ahead and downloaded the cumulative update KB3206632 on the Update Catalog, but when I installed it, it gave me a message "Installer encountered an error: 0x8007000D the data is invalid." This only happens when I install cumulative updates. Security updates and other patches go through WUSA. I'm using the standalone installer as it takes a while for the built-in Windows Update to download the updates. Doing a Google search gets me nowhere. It's an almost 2 months old PC so I don't believe there's nothing *too* corrupted yet here.

 

Anyone have ideas on how to get around this? It would be greatly appreciated. Thank you so much.

You could go the longer route by downloading the latest ISO (it includes all updates till Nov afaik) and just 'upgrade' :) When you have downloaded the ISO, right click on the file and choose "mount" then you won't have to burn it or setup a USB key, it should upgrade without issue since it also does all the necessary checks.

yep, it's activated, alright; no issues with that part on my laptop. What I'm trying to figure out is what's causing the error code, and why it only appears on cumulative updates. Thanks anyway! :)

I shall try that, Steve. Thank you so much. I just want to get out of this build that's giving my laptop shorter battery life, feels like it's broken though its really not :|

If you haven't already, do sfc /scannow from the Command Prompt (Admin) first. Get to it by right clicking on Start.

Did that too, yeah. It found that there were "some corrupted files" (how?) but it failed to fix them. DISM takes a while too, due to my slow internet connection. So it seems downloading the ISO from scratch seems to be a good way here :)

Found similar issues, but it's with the built-in Windows Update. They encounter the same error code, and all they did was stop Windows Update in Services, delete everything in Software Distribution, and reran Windows Update. I don't know if this information helps with my issue as I'm relying on WUSA, but then again there may be a pattern. :p

    • I enjoy using Discover Weekly. I have found new music using it. Just sometimes it goes off the rails and doesn't remember I don't like rap. I'm not sure this update is anything helpful, but I guess I'll try it if it comes to free accounts.
    • Yep, I got 250 mbps down / 50 mbps up on Qatar last week and about a 30 ms ping.
    • Here are all the new features added to Microsoft 365 Copilot in June 2025 by Usama Jawad Towards the end of each month, Microsoft publishes a roundup of the features that it added to some of its popular software in the previous four weeks. We have already talked about the new capabilities introduced in Excel and Teams during the month of June 2025, and now, it's time to talk about Microsoft 365 Copilot. We'll start off with admin-facing capabilities since there are only a few of them. For starters, the usage metrics for Copilot in the Copilot Analytics tool now have new prompt categories that give more insights as to how users are engaging with Copilot. This feature has just begun rolling out, but another enhancement to the usage metrics that is already available is dedicated statistics for intelligent meeting recaps. Finally, Microsoft 365 admins can now view and manage their inventory of agents and connectors and also have more granular control over costs and billing policies. On the user side of things, we have intelligent assistance in Copilot Chat, powered by ContextIQ. This layer of intelligence can scope prompts to internal (SharePoint, OneDrive) and external data sources, find files in the chat, and proactively offer relevant suggestions as you type. In the same vein, the Copilot mobile app is being updated so you can talk to the AI in a natural manner using your voice. In addition, users can also get access to deep reasoning agents such as Researcher and Analyst for more complex and research-oriented needs. The Create experience in the app is also being updated with the ability to generate stories and branded templates. Other interesting Copilot capabilities rolling out to Edge customers are the ability to prompt the AI through the search bar, access agents from within the browser, and take advantage of Copilot's impressive text summarization capabilities. That's not all though, other features in tow include: Enhancements to Copilot in Outlook: Schedule meetings through Copilot chat, summarization of email attachments, a new sidebar experience in the classic Outlook app, meeting preparation, and automated meeting invite creation Improved image generation and large file handling in Copilot Chat: More photorealistic image generation with better text depiction, ability to generate longer summaries from bigger files, and PDF scanning capabilities for insights Memory in Copilot: Copilot will now remember certain items from your conversation and you can modify or delete them Transferred calls summary with Copilot in Teams Phone: Generate a summary of a call and transfer it to a target New file extension for Copilot Pages: Copilot Pages will now have .page extension with an updated file icon Copilot Notebooks availability in OneNote: We already covered this in detail here Seamlessly add brand-approved images with Copilot in PowerPoint: Integration of Copilot with SharePoint Organization Asset Library (OAL) and Templafy asset libraries Explain formulas on the grid with Copilot in Excel: Self-explanatory, exactly what it says on the tin Expanded availability for the Microsoft 365 Copilot app: Availability of the Microsoft 365 Copilot app on Mac You can read more details about each of the aforementioned features here.

    • OneNote for Windows gets support for Dynamic DPI by Usama Jawad OneNote for Windows (part of Microsoft 365) is a pretty useful app if you're actively engaged in note-taking activities and also appreciate some rich text formatting capabilities. In fact, it also offers some decent integrations with Copilot, which make it an important piece of software in productivity-based environments. Now, Microsoft has introduced a feature that will likely make people with multi-monitor setups very happy. The OneNote for Windows application now supports Dynamic DPI (dots per inch). What this means is that you can use OneNote across any screen and it will scale according to the display's resolution, and you won't get a disconcerting and distracting blurring effect. You can extend your display to a high-resolution monitor and shift OneNote across displays without a hitch or any distraction. This is similar to the UX that is already present in Word, Excel, and PowerPoint. This Dynamic DPI support not only extends to the main text area but also to the section tabs, the Notebooks pane, drop-down menus, and Copilot Notebooks. All of these should look crisp and polished moving forward, without any manual adjustment or even an app restart required from the user's side. Microsoft has highlighted that it was encouraged to work on this capability after receiving user feedback from customers in this area. Dynamic DPI is now available to Current Channel (CC) customers on OneNote for Windows, running Version 2504 (Build 16.0.18827.20042) or later. That's not all, though. Another smaller enhancement present in OneNote moving forward is a revamped setup experience when you launch OneNote on a new Windows device for the first time. You will now receive a list of your five most recently used (MRU) notebooks that will open instantaneusly with a click. If you have more than five notebooks, you can pick and choose the files that you want to open. That said, Microsoft is looking to expand and improve on this experience in the future since it is fairly limited right now.
