You could use the SFC command below to verify and fix modified/corrupted system files.

Okay cool. I'll keep that info in my important Windows Repair text file.

I ran your bat file and it didn't work. here's a screen shot. any other suggestions?

Hello Tim,

If you haven't already, you could try to manually download and install the update.

KB4530684 CU Win 10 v1903 build 18362.535 and v1909 build 18363.535

Failed!

In that case, you could try a repair install, then try to update afterwards.

There are occasions when members omit to select "Run as administrator".
The latest one is here: Can't install or hide update
So, I suggest adding the following lines atop the script.

Code:

Set "Variable=0" & if exist "%temp%\getadmin.vbs" del "%temp%\getadmin.vbs"

fsutil dirty query %systemdrive%  >nul 2>&1 && goto :(Privileges_got)

If "%1"=="%Variable%" (echo. &echo. Please right-click on the file and select &echo. "Run as administrator". &echo. Press any key to exit. &pause>nul 2>&1& exit)

cmd /u /c echo Set UAC = CreateObject^("Shell.Application"^) : UAC.ShellExecute "%~0", "%Variable%", "", "runas", 1 > "%temp%\getadmin.vbs"&cscript //nologo "%temp%\getadmin.vbs" & exit

:(Privileges_got)

It will automatically get administrative privileges in a batch script.

Thank you Matthew.

I have updated the .bat file to include this to prompt for elevation, and added to prompt to restart the computer at the end as well.
