    //my problem is that my windows doesnt update and it justs reverts the changes//

    Yes. I know. Try what I posted, and let me know if that works. If not, share the CBS logs.

    One of the most common reasons for the LCU rollback is the missing Edge browser.

    If Microsoft Edge was uninstalled earlier, reinstalling it fixes the issue.

    Let me know how it goes.

    Upload the CBS logs

    If that doesn't help, please upload your CBS logs to OneDrive and share the link here.

    • c:\windows\logs\cbs\                   <= Zip and upload all files in this folder.

    Additionally, upload the following file:

    • c:\windows\INF\setupapi.dev.log

    (How-To: Share OneDrive files and folders - Microsoft Support)

    Hi Connor,

    My name is Estrella, and I'm a Microsoft user like you. I'll be more than happy to help.

    I'm sorry to hear that you're having an issue with updates. Is there any error message or code?

    1. Try the Windows Update troubleshooter:

    Navigate to Start > Settings > Update & Security > Troubleshoot > Additional troubleshooters, Windows Update, then click Run.

    2: Reset Windows Components

    In your search bar type CMD and right-click it, select run as administrator

    Copy and paste each of the commands below then Enter:

    net stop bits

    net stop wuauserv

    net stop appidsvc

    net stop cryptsvc

    Ren C:\Windows\SoftwareDistribution.old

    Ren C:\Windows\System32\catroot2 Catroot2.old

    net start bits

    net start wuauserv

    net start appidsvc

    net start cryptsvc

    Restart your PC once done and then try again.

    3: Run SFC and DISM

    Restart your PC then try again.

    I hope this information is helpful to you. If you have any more questions, feel free to reply to this message.
