Please try proceeding like that: Try to download it and to install it manually Run sfc /scannow and chkdsk /r /f Reset Windows Update Components Download and install System Update Readiness tool for your OS Disable all security softwares If this does not help, try performing a repair install of your OS.

Hi, Can you double check if the update is installed by viewing update history from Control panle->Windows Update. Also check for update again. Usually, if windows update does not show any update, there is no need to install. However, if there is any record of failure of the update, we can try manually download and install it. Please disable your security software\antivirus software at the same time.
