Cumulative Update KB4048955 Windows 10 v1709 Build 16299.64

"2017-11 Cumulative Update for Windows 10 Version 1703 for x64-based Systems (KB4048954)." Windows updates finally stopped. Except this Cumulative one's update history says: "failed to install." Update status says: "Some updates were cancelled. We'll keep trying in case updates become available."

In another post last week I mentioned my ASUS Windows 10 bogging down (ASUS ModelQ524U). Thought had remedied by changing routers, but then: Took most of day to figure out today's issue is Windows updating. Mine is saying updates are Cumulative and just Windows 10 version 1703 for x64-based systems, plus Security update for Adobe Flash Player. Started early a.m. and is still going now into late afternoon. Not sure why it has to intefere with use of computer, but responses are frustratingly slow when I try. And others in this thread seem to have updates lickety split. Maybe my inexpensive ASUS, even with all it's memory and drive space, just isn't up to the task.

Then you need to post in the other thread because this thread is for the monthly update of version 1709, not 1703.

Tired after each update to revive the computer. After this update, Windows Spotlight and Foobar2000 ceased to work 1001 times. Again 6 hours of setting up debugging and re-registration of modules. Tired!

Ok, Rocky. I reposted into link you provided.

My Asus lappy was quite cranky this AM, mouse not responding, pages loading slowly, so I did a restart and figured out why. The update was loaded and got the message installing windows etc. Had not got to check for updates yet, but installed without issue. Now performing as usual.

On an older machine, the restart after applying KB4048955 results in multiple attempts at installing "something", additional re-starts and finally the message it couldn't complete the updates and was undoing the changes. When the machine eventually re-starts, this update is still being offered and the machine is - again - requesting a restart.

MS offers a total of 8 different version of this update for manual download and install. This machine has an AMD Phenom II X4 965 processor so I downloaded both, the Delta and the Cumulative Win X64 version of this update and attempted to install the update manually. Everything appeared to go well but again, re-starts were required and those restarts, again, ended up with roll-backs.
As this goes on "ad infinitum", I turned off updates in the hopes this will get fixed eventually but the machine keeps insisting it requires a re-start - which then gets rolled back e.t.c. e.t.c.

Windows Update Troubleshooter was not able to resolve the problem. SFC /scannow reports everything is fine.

And finally: The update apparently was installed at least once but one of the roll-backs must have un-installed it: It is no longer listed.

Yes - I know I tried to install it several times but, as I said in my previous post, it no longer shows. The only KB4048955 related entry at this time is the failed install (The first entry on the screenshot I posted earlier). Actually, there are now two identical entries.
My windows version is 1709 (OS Build 16299.19)

Same here.
