Has anyone else run into Windows Update error 0×800f0988?
I was just trying to install some cumulative updates on my Windows 10 system and suddenly got hit with error 0×800f0988. At first I thought it was my internet or maybe corrupt files, but after a restart, it popped up again.
What’s weird is I tried running DISM and SFC as some guides suggested and SFC actually did find some issues and fixed them, but the update still fails with the same code. Anyone know what else could be causing this or have a step-by-step fix? Is it safe to remove the old update files from SoftwareDistribution, or is there a better way to get past this?
If you’ve solved this error, please let me know how! I’d love to get the update installed and see what’s new.
