  I am having trouble installing the recent July rollup updates KB5004298 and KB5004285. Updates install fine but after reboot it rolls back. I have tried installing each one individually, used sfc/dism, cleaned up C:\Windows\Temp, cleaned and reset windows update, installed manually, installed direct from MS instead of WSUS, etc. CBS.log seems to give some relevant information but I have not been able to figure out where to go next. IF you are facing the same issue with installing updates please find the solution below. the error is caused by the July update. For that create the below 2 folder if they do not exist Basically, make sure these directories exist (even if they are empty) C:\Windows\System32\Macromed\Flash C:\Windows\SysWOW64\Macromed\Flash Hope it helps someone.

Instead of activation of windows.  Instead, I got error code  0xc0000022 , and the perfectly valid built-in OEM key would not re-activate the same Windows on the same hardware – no matter what I did. It turns out the culprit was an ‘ access denied ‘ error in the  Software Protection  service… The error  0xc0000022  means that the  Software Protection Service  (SPS) wouldn’t start.

Check the SPS First, click  Start  (the windows logo button on the taskbar). Type:  services Click the  Services  app icon. Next, scroll down and find  Software Protection , and double-click it to view the settings: Make sure that  Startup typ...
