"There were some problems installing updates, but we’ll try again later. If you keep seeing this and want to search the web or contact support for information, this may help: (0x800f0922)"

Solution

This happens if the Microsoft Edge (Chromium) web browser has been uninstalled earlier by the user.

To resolve the issue, use one of the methods below if you’ve uninstalled Edge:

  • Delete the empty “C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft\Edge” folder. (or)
  • Download Microsoft Edge (Chromium) and install it.

Then, install the KB5003173 (Cumulative Update) via Windows Update or .msu installer downloaded from the MU Catalog. The direct download links are below:

  1. Hi,
    My question is not related to the above topic.

    My laptop has crashed and all repair option have failed.
    CANNOT BOOT INTO WINDOWS OR SAFE MODE -> ONLY recovery mode available and PE (Hiren boot)
    Last repair I can think of, is running : dism.exe /image:C:\ /cleanup-image /Restorehealth

    But I get error that cleanup-image option is not found.

    I think the dism.exe is old version and that’s why the option is not present

    How can I upgrade it from inside PE

    Kindly advise.
