It appeared when I tried updating my Windows 10 PC. What can I do to fix it?<\/p>\n<p>Microsoft releases quality updates for Windows 10 regularly. These updates contain security patches, updated device drivers, and other improvements that ensure that your system runs as smoothly as possible.<\/p>\n<p>Microsoft recommends checking for and installing new updates from time to time. However, some users could encounter unexpected issues such as the Error Code 0x80092004.<\/p>\n<h2>Why Do I Get the Error 0x80092004 on Windows 10?<\/h2>\n<p>The error occurs when the update you are trying to apply is faulty. Unfortunately, Microsoft may have released the update without confirming its efficacy. When an update turns out to be problematic, Windows Update reverts the installation and displays the Error 0x80092004. However, corrupt system files could also cause this problem.<\/p>\n<h2>How to Fix the Update Error 0x80092004<\/h2>\n<p>There are a number of solutions you can initiate to effectively resolve the 0x80092004 error code. Take a look:<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>Install servicing stack updates<\/li>\n<li>Get rid of the faulty update<\/li>\n<li>Clear the Windows Update temporary cache folder<\/li>\n<li>Check for corrupt system files<\/li>\n<li>Run the Windows Update troubleshooter<\/li>\n<li>Download the update via the Microsoft Update Catalog<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>Let\u2019s proceed to the steps for applying each of the solutions.<\/p>\n<h3>Fix 1: Install Servicing Stack Updates<\/h3>\n<p>Servicing stack is a component of the Windows OS. It is responsible for the installation of Windows updates. When it runs into an issue, getting the latest version will help fix it. Servicing stack updates ensure that the Windows Update process remains reliable. If you do not have the latest servicing stack, you probably won\u2019t be able to run Windows Update to obtain security fixes.<\/p>\n<p>So, here\u2019s what you have to do:<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>Press <code>Windows + I<\/code> to open the <em>Settings<\/em> app.<\/li>\n<li>Click on the <em>Update &amp; Security<\/em> tile.<\/li>\n<li>Click on <em>Windows Update<\/em> in the left pane.<\/li>\n<li>Click the <em>Advanced Options<\/em> link on the right-hand side of the page.<\/li>\n<li>Turn off automatic updates by clicking the drop-down menu under \u2018<em>Choose how updates are installed<\/em>.\u2019 Then, select <em>Never<\/em>.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<div class=\"notebox_lite\">\r\n\t<div class=\"notebox_lite__heading\">Note<\/div>\r\n\t<div class=\"notebox__text\">Alternatively, instead of turning off automatic updates, you can pause them:<\/p>\n<p>Under Pause Updates, expand the drop-down for Pause Until and select a date.<\/div>\r\n<\/div>\n<ol start=\"6\">\n<li>Restart your computer.<\/li>\n<li>Open your <em>Microsoft Edge<\/em> browser and visit the link below to install servicing stack updates:<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/msrc.microsoft.com\/update-guide\/advisory\/ADV990001\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">https:\/\/msrc.microsoft.com\/update-guide\/advisory\/ADV990001<\/a><\/p>\n<ol start=\"8\">\n<li>Afterward, re-enable automatic Windows updates.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<h3>Fix 2: Get Rid of the Faulty Update<\/h3>\n<p>When an update fails, the system removes the installation and rolls back to its previous state. To proceed, you need to try clearing out the faulty update package before running another update. Follow the steps shown below to get it done:<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>Press the <code>Windows key<\/code> on your keyboard to open the <em>Start<\/em> menu.<\/li>\n<li>Type <code>CMD<\/code>\u00a0and right-click on <em>Command Prompt<\/em> when it comes up in the search results.<\/li>\n<li>Click on <em>Run as Administrator<\/em>.<\/li>\n<li>Click the <em>Yes<\/em> button when the <em>User Account Control<\/em> box appears.<\/li>\n<li>When the <em>Command Prompt (Admin)<\/em> window opens, run the following lines one after the other:<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<pre>dism.exe \/online \/remove-package \/packagename:Package_for_RollupFix_Wrapper~31bf3856ad364e35~amd64~~16299.248.1.17\r\n\r\ndism.exe \/online \/remove-package \/packagename:Package_for_RollupFix_Wrapper~31bf3856ad364e35~amd64~~16299.192.1.9\r\n\r\ndism.exe \/online \/remove-package \/packagename:Package_for_RollupFix~31bf3856ad364e35~amd64~~16299.192.1.9<\/pre>\n<ol start=\"6\">\n<li>Restart your computer and open <em>Command Prompt (Admin)<\/em> again. Then run the following line:<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<pre>Dism.exe \/online \/Cleanup-Image \/StartComponentCleanup<\/pre>\n<p>Afterward, you can go ahead and install new Windows updates.<\/p>\n<h3>Fix 3: Clear the Windows Update Temporary Cache Folder<\/h3>\n<p>When the system downloads updates, it stores the temporary files in the SoftwareDistribution folder. After it installs the new update successfully, it deletes the files. However, when an installation fails, the temporary files will remain in storage and may cause disruptions on your PC. Before attempting to retry the installation of Windows updates, it is advisable to clear the contents of the SoftwareDistribution folder.<\/p>\n<p>Follow the steps as shown:<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>Go to the <em>Start<\/em> menu and type <code>CMD<\/code>\u00a0into the search bar.<\/li>\n<li>Right-click on <em>Command Prompt<\/em> and click on <em>Run as Administrator<\/em>.<\/li>\n<li>On the <em>User Account Control<\/em> prompt, click <em>Yes<\/em> to allow <em>Command Prompt<\/em> to make changes to your computer.<\/li>\n<li>Now, run the following commands one after the other (type or copy and paste them. Then, press <code>Enter<\/code> to run them):<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<pre>net stop wuauserv\r\n\r\nnet start cryptSvc\r\n\r\nnet start bits\r\n\r\nnet start msiserver<\/pre>\n<p>The first command stops the Windows Update service. The second stops the cryptographic service, the third stops the background intelligent transfer service (BITS) and the last one stops the MSI installer.<\/p>\n<ol start=\"5\">\n<li>After successfully stopping the services, open <em>File Explorer<\/em> (<code>Windows + E<\/code>) and navigate to <em>C:\/Windows\/SoftwareDistribution<\/em>. Press <code>Ctrl + A<\/code> to select all the contents of the <em>SoftwareDistribution<\/em> folder. Then, press <code>Shift + Delete<\/code> to get rid of them.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<div class=\"notebox_lite\">\r\n\t<div class=\"notebox_lite__heading\">Note<\/div>\r\n\t<div class=\"notebox__text\">If the system indicates that the files are in use, restart your computer and try deleting the files again.<\/div>\r\n<\/div>\n<ol start=\"6\">\n<li>Now, you need to restart the services you stopped earlier. So, open <em>Command Prompt (Admin)<\/em> and run the following lines:<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<pre>net start wuauserv\r\n\r\nnet start cryptSvc\r\n\r\nnet start bits\r\n\r\nnet start msiserver<\/pre>\n<ol start=\"7\">\n<li>Close the <em>Command Prompt (Admin)<\/em> window and close <em>File Explorer<\/em>. Then, restart your computer.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<h3>Fix 4: Check for Corrupt System Files<\/h3>\n<p>Corrupt system files can cause a myriad of issues on your PC, including the Windows Update Error Code 0x80092004. However, you can put things in order with the DISM and SFC command-line tools. Here\u2019s how:<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>Press the <code>Windows key<\/code> on your keyboard to open the <em>Start<\/em> menu.<\/li>\n<li>Type <code>CMD<\/code>\u00a0into the search bar.<\/li>\n<li>Right-click <em>Command Prompt<\/em> in the search results and click on <em>Run as Administrator<\/em>.<\/li>\n<li>Click the <em>Yes<\/em> button on the <em>User Account Control<\/em> dialog.<\/li>\n<li>When <em>Command Prompt (Admin)<\/em> opens, type in the following line and press <code>Enter<\/code> to execute it:<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<pre>DISM.exe \/Online \/Cleanup-image \/Restorehealth<\/pre>\n<ol start=\"6\">\n<li>Wait for the scan to complete. Ensure that you don\u2019t interrupt it. You may want to plug in your PC to avoid running out of battery power.<\/li>\n<li>Now, type in the next command below and press <code>Enter<\/code> on your keyboard to execute it:<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<pre>Sfc \/scannow<\/pre>\n<div class=\"notebox_lite\">\r\n\t<div class=\"notebox_lite__heading\">Note<\/div>\r\n\t<div class=\"notebox__text\">When typing the command, note that there\u2019s a space between \u2018Sfc\u2019 and \u2018\/scannow.\u2019<\/div>\r\n<\/div>\n<ol start=\"8\">\n<li>When the SFC scan is complete, close <em>Command Prompt (Admin)<\/em> and restart your PC. Then try the Windows update again.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<div class=\"cta-block cta-block_native top\" data-cta-type=\"native\" data-cta-position=\"middle\">\r\n\t<div class=\"cta-block__top\">PRO TIP<\/div>\r\n    <div class=\"cta-block__text_native\">System file corruption often results when viruses and other malware infiltrate your system. To prevent that from happening, you need to employ a robust security program, such as  <a href=\"\/en\/software\/anti-malware\/after-download\/\">Auslogics Anti-Malware,<\/a>  to stand sentry. New threats are blocked from infecting your system. Moreover, existing malware is promptly and effectively removed.<\/p>\n<p>Auslogics Anti-Malware provides top-tier protection against all sorts of threats. It can work alongside your existing anti-virus program to provide an extra layer of protection. It detects and eliminates deeply hidden malicious items on your PC.<\/div>\r\n    <div class=\"cta-block__btn-group top\">\r\n        <a class=\"cta-block__download-btn\" href=\"\/en\/software\/anti-malware\/after-download\/\">Download for Free<\/a>\r\n        <a class=\"cta-block__learn-more\" href=\"\/en\/software\/anti-malware\/\">Learn More<\/a>\r\n    <\/div>\r\n<\/div>\r\n\n<h3>Fix 5: Run the Windows Update Troubleshooter<\/h3>\n<p>Windows comes with a built-in solution that helps resolve common issues. You should consider running it just to ensure that you leave no stone unturned. Follow the steps below:<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>Open the <em>Windows Settings<\/em> app by pressing the <code>Windows + I<\/code> combination on your keyboard.<\/li>\n<li>Click the <em>Update &amp; Security<\/em> tile.<\/li>\n<li>Click on <em>Troubleshoot<\/em> in the left pane.<\/li>\n<li>Select <em>Windows Update<\/em> and click the <em>Run the Troubleshooter<\/em> button.<\/li>\n<li>Restart your PC after the scan is complete.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<h3>Fix 6: Download the Update via the Microsoft Update Catalog<\/h3>\n<p>If you are still having issues installing the new update, you can get around the issue by obtaining the update from Microsoft\u2019s website. They keep an update catalog where you can search for and download the update you need. Follow these easy steps to get it done:<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>Open the <em>Windows Settings<\/em> app \u2013 Simply press the <code>Windows key + I<\/code> combination on your keyboard.<\/li>\n<li>Click the <em>Update &amp; Security<\/em> tile.<\/li>\n<li>Click on <em>Windows Update<\/em> on the left pane.<\/li>\n<li>Click the <em>View Update History<\/em> link on the right pane.<\/li>\n<li>Locate the problematic update and note the identification code.<\/li>\n<li>Open your <em>Microsoft Edge<\/em> browser and visit <a href=\"https:\/\/www.catalog.update.microsoft.com\/home.aspx\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">https:\/\/www.catalog.update.microsoft.com\/home.aspx<\/a>.<\/li>\n<li>Enter the update\u2019s identification code in the search bar and press <code>Enter<\/code>.<\/li>\n<li>Locate the update. Then, download and install it.<\/li>\n<li>Restart your system.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>Tip: Once the download is complete and you aren\u2019t sure how to install it, you can use an elevated Command Prompt to get the job done:<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>Go to the <em>Start<\/em> menu and type <code>CMD<\/code>\u00a0in the search bar. Then, right-click on <em>Command Prompt<\/em> and click on <em>Run as Administrator<\/em>.<\/li>\n<li>Click the <em>Yes<\/em> button on the <em>User Account Control<\/em> dialog.<\/li>\n<li>Run the following command:\n<pre>wusa C:\\PATH-TO-UPDATE\\NAME-OF-UPDATE.msu \/quiet \/norestart<\/pre>\n<div class=\"notebox_lite\">\r\n\t<div class=\"notebox_lite__heading\">Note<\/div>\r\n\t<div class=\"notebox__text\">Ensure that you replace PATH-TO-UPDATE and NAME-OF-UPDATE with the update\u2019s location on your PC and the name of the update.<\/div>\r\n<\/div>\n<\/li>\n<li>Your system will restart automatically after the command executes.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>If the system displays an error message that reads, \u2018CRYPT_E_NOT_FOUND\u2019 during the installation process, it means that the update cannot be applied on your PC. This is due to cryptographic values mismatch. However, that will not happen as long as you have already installed the latest servicing stack updates, as shown in Fix 1 above.<\/p>\n<h2>Conclusion<\/h2>\n<p>This guide shows how to fix the Windows Update Error 0x80092004 on Windows 10.
