Updating motherboard UEFI BIOS resolves Windows 11 update failures


Recommended Posts

I have had a problem that my PC (which meets the Windows 11 requirements) would keep trying to install Cumulative Update 2022-11 through Windows Update and the update would fail over and over again.

The error code it gives is for a corrupted copy of Windows.

I reinstalled Windows 11, but that did not help.

Finally, I updated the motherboard UEFI BIOS, and, surprisingly, that resolved the issue with installing the update.

Might be handy to include your system specs, especially motherboard make and model, as well as bios version you updated to... ;)

what Windows 11 version are you running, Mockingbird?  21H2 (build 22000) or 22H2 (build 22621)
type winver.exe at the Run dialog box to show the Win11 version build & edition
there are several different Win11 "Cumulative Updates 2022-11", some for 21H2 and the others for 22H2

    • A guy messaged me yesterday wanting to talk on the phone, it turns out his friend messaged on "marktplaats" a day earlier asking what my lowest price was (€1650). After talking for a bit about it (he says he has no experience with computers and is relying on his friend) and then confirming with his friend, he messaged me he wanted to pick it up today. They both came today to check it out, and pick it up. SOLD. I prefer it this way rather than having to cannibalize it to sell for parts.
    • Was taking the side glass panel off because I want to install the AORUS X870E Master GPU holder, and while I had the glass side panel in my hands the front one decided to take a kamikaze dive. Now I hope they sell the glass fronts separately, or I am screwed. I'll probably be finding bits of glass for weeks now  😅
    • Yeh, I think you'll find there wasn't much legit savings from what he did. Any chump can fire a bunch of people indiscriminately from positions and services that don't impact that person. At the end of the day, it just means that services that are essential in any functional democracy, won't be able to operate because there are no people to deliver those services. Sure, it "saves" money on paper, but like most short sighted bean counters, there are very real, and expensive impacts later on down the track. Did you know that by buying 2x toothbrush's and a tube of toothpaste every year, and seeing the dentist every 6 months would cost you about $400 a year? So by the time you're in your 30's that would be $12000 of cost! Now imagine if you didn't spend any of that $12000 on preventative oral health care! Wow, so much more money! But you also needed to have several root canals at $1500 per tooth. Plus the time off work for being unable to function with the pain. So lets face it, that initial cost is worth it!
