#120
I've paused updates for 7 days, hopefully MS will issue the new fix before next weekend. I'll grab it once it's available. I've got the option to use the UUP ISO but I'll hold off for now.
Just FYI for you any all else, this tiny utility will allow you to check for all updates, just like WU, but it won't take off and try to install anything. You can install from it, or hide (my favorite part!). Been around for quite a while and lots here use it for various reasons. Might be useful to you in this instance to check for any new CU MS throws out while you are "paused". It would show this one now if you were to run it.

For anyone else who may come across this in the future, I fixed the issue by downloading and installing a Insider Preview ISO on top of my current install, thanks to the advice of someone on the Microsoft Answers Community.
Microsoft Answers Community: Build 19043.899 (CU preview for 21H1) is available in Beta channel
I am not an Insider so maybe posting this in the wrong thread?
Failed to install optional update KB5000842, ran the WaasMedic task then restarted and tried to install KB5000842 again: failed
I downloaded the msu file from WUC and tried to install KB5000842 manually, failed also. Will now wait for the April update.
Ran DISM online that took much longer than normal and SFC also took very long to complete; both no issues.
