How to fix error code 0x800f0922: Windows update failure in Windows 10

Here are several methods to resolve the error code 0x800f0922:

1. Ensure a stable internet connection: Verify that your internet connection is robust and steady enough to handle the download and installation of updates.
2. Turn off antivirus software: Antivirus programs can sometimes block the Windows update process. Temporarily disable your antivirus software and attempt the update again.
3. Use the Windows Update troubleshooter: Windows 10 includes a troubleshooter that can detect and resolve Windows Update issues. To access it, navigate to Settings > Update & Security > Troubleshoot > Windows Update.
4. Reset the Windows Update cache: Corruption in the Windows Update cache can cause update errors. To clear the cache, open Command Prompt with administrative privileges and enter the following commands:

    net stop wuauserv
    net stop cryptSvc
    net stop bits
    net stop msiserver
    ren C:\Windows\SoftwareDistribution SoftwareDistribution.old
    ren C:\Windows\System32\catroot2 catroot2.old
    net start wuauserv
    net start cryptSvc
    net start bits
    net start msiserver

5. Execute a clean boot: A clean boot helps identify issues caused by third-party software interfering with Windows Update. Follow these steps:
   a. Press Windows key + R to open the Run dialog.

   c. In the System Configuration window, go to the Services tab.

6. Reset Windows Update components: If previous steps fail, reset the Windows Update components. Open Command Prompt as an administrator and type the following commands:

    net stop bits
    net stop wuauserv
    net stop appidsvc
    net stop cryptsvc
    ren %systemroot%\SoftwareDistribution SoftwareDistribution.old
    ren %systemroot%\system32\catroot2 catroot2.old
