For me the update didn't like the SSD's i had so i updated the firmware and it worked.

Try the Microsoft update catalogue & search for that KB then manually download & install it.

I have a .bat file to 'fix update' for Win10 - it might work for Win11 ...

net stop wuauserv
pause
net stop cryptSvc
pause
net stop bits
pause
net stop msiserver
pause
Ren C:\Windows\SoftwareDistribution SoftwareDistribution.old
pause
Ren C:\Windows\System32\catroot2 Catroot2.old
pause
net start wuauservnet start cryptSvc
pause
net start bits
pause
net start msiserver
pause


Leave out the pause statements if you want - I put them so I could see the results of each stop.

Copy this into a new Notepad file and save it to the desktop as 'fixupdate.bat', then run it as admin. Keep your fingers crossed.

If it goes without error, try the update again.

But it seems to do this on all PCs even my older two with Win10 that did the July 8th updates. It just wouldn't do anything at all after 2 hours. I cleared all the download cache and Disk Cleanup rebooted and it finished in 10 mins. And those have Samsung sata ssds.

Each time juat before Update Tuesday (2nd Tues of each Month) wipe put all that cache and reboot and then when WU goes to do its thing it should go fine.

If WU applies a NET Framework update, after you reboot, manually trigger it to finish rebuilding the database for NET via CMD (Run As Admin)...
