    KB5001716 was updated multiple times in the past. The error occurs because their update server didn't clear their cache, so they offer you an older October 2023 version of KB5001716 after you updated to a newer March 2024 version of KB5001716.

    It is that simple. The error will come back when Microsoft updates KB5001716 again and their server will again not clear the cache on time and will offer you the now old March 2024 and it will fail to install.

    The error message goes away when their server clears the old cache.

    Anyone checked their reliability history (control panel > Security and Maintenance > Maintenance > Reliability History) or Windows Event logs? Even though KB5001716 installs there are Windows Updates Stopped Working Errors occurring.

    MS routinely re-issues KB5001716 using the same KB number every time.
    The current one is dated 5th March 2024 according to my WUMgr.
    You don't really need to bother reading KB5001716: Update for Windows Update Service components - MSSupport but do note that the article lists 28 Feb 2024 dates for the update's contents so it is not the same as last October's version [and the download's contents date matches].
    For x64 Windows 10 Version 22H2***, the direct download link is
    https://download.windowsupdate.com/c...8840bcfff1.cab
    You'll get one of those This is not a secure site warnings.
    The filename contains its hash [the d92aa5a45222707542efa229d9cb0a8840bcfff1 bit] as normal if you want to check it after downloading it.
    The download is a cab file containing an msi file.


    According to sandyt post #30 above & BleepingComputer, the older version of KB5001716 needs to be uninstalled before the new one is installed.
    This seems very odd.
    I'm often lazy about making new system images before Patch Tuesday. I think I'll make a new one now given the strange comments about it here & in other TenForums threads.


    *** Judging by that MSSupport article, I think that it is the same download for Versions 2004, 20H2, 21H1, 21H2 and 22H2. You could check using WUMgr to get a direct download link as I did for mine.



    All the best,

    Did you have the October version installed beforehand?
    Did you have to uninstall it before installing the latest version?
