Server patchers – issues with KB4601318

Posted on February 11, 2021 at 08:46 CST by Susan Bradley • Comment in the Forums

KB4601318 fails to update, fails at 24% Windows Server 2016 – Microsoft Q&A

Just a heads up for those doing patching on Server 2016. Reports from multiple locations indicate that KB4601318 and possibly KB4535680 get stuck at 24% and won’t install.

There are some manual workarounds listed in that thread, but you may want to hold back until this installation issue is fixed.

Edit of 2-12-2021 – Mark Berry reports in the comments:

“https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/topic/february-9-2021-kb4601318-os-build-14393-4225-c5e3de6c-e3e6-ffb5-6197-48b9ce16446e

This post now confirms, “KB4601392 has been removed and will no longer be offered to devices. We are working on a resolution and will provide an update in an upcoming release.
