manually install cab-files

Question

Hallo alltogther

Cause win10-auto-update frequently sucks my Broadband volume dry (updating 4 pc) - i decided to do it manually and

download the files from update-catalogue. All works with .msu files, but with cab files never.

I use dism ( DISM.exe /Online /Add-Package /PackagePath:xxx), but the same happens also with PkgMgr

CBS.log says:

CBS    Failed to extract file update.mum from cabinet

And indeed,  there is not an update.mum file in the .cab (in any i tried).

So the question is:  How to install these files, or are they not for this purpose?

Regards Georg.

P.S  The OS is a win10-pro, 10.0.15063

The system cannot find the file specified.

The DISM log file can be found at C:\WINDOWS\Logs\DISM\dism.log

Dear MS-Team.

You sent me a mail and ask me for reply, if my question is not solved. But I've already done this above.

I again have the feeling, that only Bots answering - which can't understand my post.

Please read again my first post as I already posted - DaveM121 hasn't done this. What he (or it) proposes,

I've already done AND it is part of the problem.

regards,
