    cannot install updates error windows 10 (windowsupdatefailure3)


    i got this:
    127645409975
    5
    WindowsUpdateFailure3

    upon starting windows, prior to connecting to the internet, it said to click an error message to fix it, but before I could, it disappeared. the only thing I could find relating to this error, was for earlier versions of windows. however, yesterday, I think that I had not plugged in the adapter cord completely, so it went into sleep mode or something.

    is there a way to see the time that an update was installed? because it shows that an update was installed the same day that the error occurred.... maybe i can see if it happened before my system shut down if the error was actually fixed..

    JoshuaM,

    Yes, there is a way to get the Time/Date!

    Go to the Ask me anything area and type in: PowerShell
    In the results list, double-click the Windows PowerShell entry
    In the blue PowerShell window that appears, copy/paste (with the mouse) the following text inside the code box:

    Get-WmiObject -Class "win32_quickfixengineering"
    Press: Enter

    The PowerShell window should provide you the results you want.

    Example:

    To copy these results to Notepad, click the PS icon (blue) on the top/far left
    Select: Edit > Select all
    Back to the icon, select: Edit > Copy

    Open Notepad, and paste the results on it.

    To get out of PowerShell, type Exit, and press: Enter
