As user-friendly as Windows may be, unforeseen circumstances can prevent you from updating via the automated Windows Update Manager. Do you now have to go without this update? No!
You can also manually download any update for your system from the Microsoft website. These updates are usually titled with the initial letters "KB" and the consecutive update number, e.g., "KB4023051." Updates with the file extension .cab and .msu are also available. Download the appropriate update from the Microsoft website. Open the command prompt with administrative privileges. If you don't want to scroll for it, enter "cmd" in the search function of the program menu and open the command prompt via the context menu by right-clicking the app.
The command >dism
The "dism" command stands for Deployment Image Servicing and Management. It is used to list, install, uninstall, configure, and update features and packages in Windows. The "/online" parameter specifies the running system as the target, the "/add-package" parameter specifies the extension to install the corresponding update, and "/packagepath" points to the source file of the current update, which you previously downloaded from the Internet. The path of the "/packagepath" parameter must, of course, also be modified to your individual storage location.
C:\Windows\System32>dism /online /add-package /packagepath:C:\downloads\UPDATEFILE
After you enter the command and press Enter, a report will appear indicating whether the update was successful. Make sure the specified path to the file is correct. If the update installs successfully, restart Windows.
