    Hi Sony Noel

    There could be several reasons for this issue:

    1.Windows Update service is disabled or corrupted.

    1. Third-party security software or system optimization software interferes with the update or installation process.

    3.Windows files or components are corrupted or missing.

    1. The timestamp signature or certificate cannot be verified or is not formatted correctly.
    2. The Trusted Publisher Lockout Group Policy setting prevents the installation of unsigned software.

    To solve this problem, here are a few ways you can try:

    1. Restart the Windows Update service and make sure its startup type is Automatic.
    2. Uninstall or turn off third-party security software and system optimization software in your device.

    3.Restart your device using clean boot mode and try to update or install the app.

    4.Use the DISM tool or the System Update Preparation Tool to fix Windows corruption errors. For more information, please see Fix Windows Update errors via DISM or System Update Readiness tool - Windows Server | Microsoft Learn.

    1. Temporarily turn off the Trusted Publisher Lockout Group Policy setting and install the corresponding certificate to the Trusted Publisher Certificate Store.

    If the above ways still don't resolve the issue, consider performing an in-place upgrade. For more information about the in-place upgrade, please see Perform an in-place upgrade of Windows Server | Microsoft Learn.

    Hope it is helpful for you.

    Regards,

    Lei
