I'm having trouble updating Windows to its latest version. Every time I try to update it will get up to like 10% and fail, giving me the error 0x8007025d.

What can I do?

Windows for home | Windows 11 | Windows update

Error 0x8007025d means ERROR_BAD_COMPRESSION_BUFFER. Some files in the WinSxS folder are corrupt and inaccessible.

Please open Command Prompt (admin) and run the following command:

DISM /Online /Cleanup-Image /RestoreHealth

Post the output.

(If the above command reports an error, mention the error message here.)
