    Hi, @Will Wilson

    Thank you for posting in Microsoft Q&A forum.

    Error code 0x8000ffff usually indicates a problem with Windows Update components or a conflict with third-party software. Here are some steps you can try to fix the issue:

    1. Run the Windows Update troubleshooter. Go to Settings > Update & Security > Troubleshoot > Additional troubleshooters > Windows Update > Run the troubleshooter.
    2. Disable third-party antivirus software temporarily and try to install the update again.
    3. Perform an in-place upgrade repair using the Media Creation Tool. This will reinstall Windows while keeping your files and applications intact. You can download the tool from the Microsoft website.
