Update of Windows 21H1 with KB5001716 constantly fails with 0x80070643

Hi
On my Lenovo X200 x64 based PC with windows10 21H1 windows update just flashes with KB5001716 and then gives error 0x80070643. No 3. Party AV, only defender.

I have tried suggestions as described in

i.e.

1. Restart Windows Update Services
2. Reboot PC and Retry Update
3. Run Windows Update Troubleshooter
4. Run .NET Framework Repair Tool
5. Reset Windows Update
6. Perform a Clean Boot
7. Install Updates via Microsoft Update Catalog
8. Run an Anti-Malware Scan
9. Run SFC Scan or DISM Tool

Any suggestions?


Solution:
As suggested by Megahertz I made in-place upgrade and that solved the issue.
I.e. PC upgraded to 22H2, still we don't know why upgrade from 21H1 failed.

A number of similar issues relating to this update have been reported- try searching tenforums for
KB5001716

Reviewing those I found (and some I responded to) I see no resolution. There may be one somewhere.

I assume the update is offered by Windows Update.

I'm wondering why you are still on 21H1. Is that a deliberate choice?
This update's failure seems related to people using older builds...

Why don't you do a in place upgrade using a Win 10 22h2 iso?

I suggest you download Win 10 22h2 iso using MCT .
If you have any antivirus disable it or uninstall.
Mount the iso and run setup.exe

a. There may be a 'safeguard hold'

b. There may be some corruption.

c. You may have used 'target feature update'

(For items in quotes search the tutorials section for explanation).

To upgrade to 22H2 you need to ensure (c) is not true.

You could do basic integrity checks on your disk(s) and file system, then try using the Windows 10 Update Assistant
