@whitequark @promovicz @schrotthaufen @mainframed767 I've been trying to figure out how to apply a simple Windows update to my mom's Win 10 PC.
Sometime last fall it decided it didn't know how to apply an update so it just failed.
Tried the troubleshooting app MS supplies. It shrugged and claimed everything is fine.
Tried to get an update file from the MS Catalog site and figured out how to apply it. Realized I need the x64 version, probably. Started the process.
It returned with a message saying "this update does not apply to your system" or something similar.
Well, who needs security patches anyway....
Could your tool help figure out what is actually going on?
