Windows 10 latest updates 2018-04 kb4093112 and kb4093110 show install date of 01/01/1601

Windows 10 latest updates 2018-04 kb4093112 and kb4093110 show install date of 01/01/1601

These two updates both have an installed date of 01/01/1601. Windows update keeps stating that that they require a restart to complete installation. kb4093112 (Cumulative update for Windows 10 Version 1709 for x64-based Systems) keeps downloading and trying to install again.

I have run the Windows 10 update troubleshooter 3 times and it found errors and said that it fixed them but this hasn't resolved the problem.

How can I solve this problem?

    I would try installing the update manually:

    https://www.catalog.update.microsoft.com/Search...

    Download the following: choose the right architecture for your system

    32 bit

    2018-04 Cumulative Update for Windows 10 Version 1709 for x86-based Systems (KB4093112)

    64 bit

    2018-04 Cumulative Update for Windows 10 Version 1709 for x64-based Systems (KB4093112)

    Follow instructions to install manually:

    If you still continue to experience problems...

    I recommend you block it until the next cumulative update is released. Many are reporting the same problem too and it looks like this update is buggy.

    Is there an option or work around to block updates or hardware drivers that might cause problems?

    Yes, Microsoft has released a KB update (KB3073930) that will let users block or hide Windows or driver updates.

    You can download it at the following link:

    https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/kb/3073930

    or

    http://download.microsoft.com/download/f/2/2/f2...

    After downloading, launch it, click Next, wait while it detects pending Windows Updates.

    Click the Hide Updates menu.

    Scroll through the list then select then select the update. Check the box next to the update then click Next to confirm changes.

    If you still want to troubleshoot the problem:

    Before carrying out this procedure, disconnect from the Internet. That means turning off Wi-Fi and disconnecting from a wired connection. If you don't, Windows 10 will indicate some files are in use and cannot be modified or the command will be non-responsive. Also, you should restart your computer after disconnecting from the Internet. The easiest way to do it is to enable Airplane mode from the Action Center - Windows key + A.

    Open Start, type: CMD

    Right click CMD

    Click Run as administrator

    Type each of the following then hit Enter

    taskkill /f /fi "SERVICES eq wuauserv" (Do this multiple times)

    net stop cryptSvc

    net stop bits

    net stop msiserver

    ren C:\Windows\SoftwareDistribution SoftwareDistribution.old

    rmdir C:\Windows\SoftwareDistribution\DataStore

    rmdir C:\Windows\SoftwareDistribution\Download

    When complete, hit Enter, then restart, then try updating again.

    If that does not work..

    1. Open Start, type: CMD

    Right click CMD

    Click Run as administrator

    Type each of the following then hit Enter

    Run these codes:

    Net Stop bits

    Net Stop wuauserv

    Net Stop appidsvc

    Net Stop cryptsvc

    Ren %systemroot%\SoftwareDistribution SoftwareDistribution.bak

    Ren %systemroot%\system32\catroot2 catroot2.bak

    Net Start bits

    Net Start wuauserv

    Net Start appidsvc

    Net Start cryptsvc

    After running these commands, check if your issue is fixed.
