After 3 months since KB5034441 was released, it still won't install

Here's a demo (click to play):

Again - when I try to adjust the left or right arrows, it will not allow anything. The moment I place my cursor on either arrow, all I get is a "||" symbol (which I've never seen before) which is strange. It will not allow me to adjust the slider.

Just noticed it - thanks.

Your problem is not easy - it's very easy and not a single 3rd-party tool is needed!
You only have to know how to run "Command Prompt" as Administrator.
when you see this:
C:\WINDOWS\system32>
you are on the right way.

Then copy the following commands and paste into command prompt:
step by step
reagentc /disable
diskpart
sel disk 0
sel par 5
delete partition override
sel par 4
extend
shrink minimum=1024
create partition primary
format quick fs=ntfs label="Recovery"
set id="de94bba4-06d1-4d40-a16a-bfd50179d6ac"
gpt attributes=0x8000000000000001
exit
reagentc /enable

The update will be installed successfully!

If you notice, in the screenshots in post #4, there's a video tutorial built in -a link to click- provided by the program.

When you see the II symbol- just drag left or right.
If you're at the right end, drag left to shrink the partition.


Or, you could simply 'hide' the update - so you never see it again- and an easy way to do that is to use Wumgr (free). (Google Wumgr).

Scan for updates (the button with two curved arrows), click the checkbox for 503441, then click the Hide button.

Example only:

hiding/blocking the KB5034441 update {you missed another "4", dalchina} is the best option as advised by this person recently.

Microsoft released a new script for the KB5034441/KB5034440 issues. My take? Skip it. I still recommend hiding the offending update and not installing it on consumer Windows machines.

But for some reason, this software did not function properly on my SSD. The script provided however, did the trick perfectly and now all is good.

You are free to select the long way. Do you go to Rio first when you intend to fly from LA to New York?
