Windows Update Error 0x800f0922 on new ESU patch KB5032249

I possess several offline systems running Server 2012 R2. We've completed the purchase of the Activation Key and successfully installed it on these servers. Additionally, I've executed the Licensing Preparation Pack as required. However, upon attempting to install the ESU patches (KB5032249 - KB5031994) by running the standalone installer, the process reaches 97% completion before rolling back the patch. Subsequently, an examination of the event log reveals the error message "failed to be changed to the installed state. status 0x800f0922." (For both patches) I've conducted SFC scans, all of which have returned positive results. Based on my research, it seems the issue might be related to the server's isolated environment?

Windows update "Update for Windows (KB5031994)" was successfully installed. (Command line: ""C:\Windows\system32\wusa.exe" "C:\temp\Robert\windows8.1-kb5031994-x64-ndp48_18260b623125b037151a4c9b78a20920be9f770a.msu" ")

Package KB5031994 failed to be changed to the Installed state. Status: 0x800f0922.

    Have you tried running a DISM restoreshealth and check for specific errors to resolve in your CBS logs, if they still exist? There may be a mutual missing or corrupt prerequisite resource that is affecting the installation of the update.

    DISM /online /cleanup-image /RestoreHealth

    Can consider a repair installation. You can do this by following steps:

    1. Plug the Server 2012 R2 installation media into the server and start the server.
    2. When the installer starts, select the "Install" option.
    3. On the "Installation Type" page, select the "Custom (Advanced)" option.
    4. On the "Destination Location" page, select the operating system installation location that you want to repair.
    5. On the "Select OS" page, select the OS version you want to repair.
    6. On the Options page, select the Preserve Existing Disk Partitions option.
    7. Once done, follow the installer's instructions to complete the repair installation process.

    Please note that the repair installation will preserve your files, settings, and applications, but may require a reinstallation of certain updates and drivers.

    Hi RobertC_NWE,

    there are many reasons for 0x800f0922 errors, including but not limited to Net framework, App Readiness service, EFI partitioning, etc. you can try the following methods:

    1. Please try to repair the .NET Framework. you can see Repair the .NET Framework - .NET Framework | Microsoft Learn to complete it.
    2. Reset the Windows Update components: If none of the above steps work, you can try resetting the Windows Update components. To do this, open a Command Prompt as an administrator and run the following commands: net stop wuauserv net stop cryptSvc net stop bits net stop msiserver ren C:\Windows\SoftwareDistribution SoftwareDistribution.old ren C:\Windows\System32\catroot2 catroot2.old net start wuauserv net start cryptSvc net start bits net start msiserver

    After running these commands, restart your device and try installing the KB again.

    1. Temporarily turn off the firewall that is turned on.
    2. If it is a disk partition problem, you can refer to Resolved: Windows 10 update failed with error code 0x800f0922 - Microsoft Community

    Hope it helps.

    Kind regards,

    Lei
