    I'm having the same trouble as gartner & SkullHex2. For over a year, these patches have worked flawlessly and I've simply updated on patch Tuesday. This month, the Monthly Q&S rollup errored out at 95% on reboot and reverted. I've tried multiple times, re-installed the patch, tried manually updating it - same thing. I was hoping that others had this problem and the answer would be here. I'll check back in a few more days or if I find a solution. :)

    Yup. Same with me. I've got 3 separate installations, but only one that's stuck.

    2022-05 Security Monthly Quality Rollup for Windows 7 for x64-based Systems (KB5014012)

    Installation date: ‎25-‎05-‎2022 19:26
    Installation status: Failed
    Error details: Code 80004005




    im having same issue as other users this month,
    On reboot, changes fail. and system gets reverted


    the .NET patch went smooth wihout issue



    On another PC, running 7 Pro ( 32bit) no issues
    On an old netbook, running 7 Starter (32bit), also no issues


    Maybe it's an issue with x64 systems only?

    Windows 7 Aktivation is gone on multiple Systems.
    Some Microsoft Update removes the Windows Aktivation, when ByPassESU 9 or 11 is used.

    Bulls**t. ByPassESU has nothing to do with your Windows being deactivated; if you make a comment like this show proof that it's caused by using the bypass and don't just post comments like that

    In over two years the Bypass has never de-activated any systems using it.

    I figured out why the latest roll-up(May 2022 update - KB5014012) wouldn't work on my windows 7 x64 machine.

    It turns out that I lack the monthly roll-up of December 14, 2021 a.k.a. KB5008244. Install this one first then KB5014012 will work afterwards.

    If starting from a clean install of Win7 Service Pack 1 x64 bit, follow all the prerequisites as indicated in the OP and ENSURE you have update KB3108664 then you may proceed with automatic updates. Once you hit the wall with KB5014012, as in it failed to install, manually download and install the previous roll-up KB5008244 from the windows update catalog. KB5014012 update should work after that. :)

    Big Thanks to magic Devs.

    Hi

    It did not work for me. KB3108664 was installed in 2020. KB5008244 I did not have,but failed to install, says "update not valid for this computer"

    That update would not install on my computer. It says the same as gartner's computer said. I'll keep trying things. I wonder what the common factor is in our computers.

    I skimmed portions related to this topic, but I'm not sure if this will help you. When the May 2022 roll-up failed, I tried to narrow down the issue to 3 possible prerequisite updates that would be applicable since I cannot update to current without the prerequisites for each succeeding roll-up.

    KB5006749 ( Per my experience, FAILED due to not applicable to this computer )
    KB5008244 ( worked as seen in my screenshot )
    KB5007236 ( Not sure if this is still required, but I didn't need to install it )

    There must be some updates you missed.

    Is a SSU from 2021, you, very most likely, already have a more current one installed.

    Thanks to Nirsoft's WinUpdatesView v1.17, I was able to lookup what SSU I have.
    Turns out you're right. I'm currently using SSU March 2022 (KB5011649).

    I wonder if there is a log file somewhere in all those logs Windows keeps that might give me more information on why the May monthly rollup always fails.

    Code:
    c:\windows\logs\cbs\cbs.log
    Copy it to the desktop and you can open it with notepad.

    I had a look, but nothing really stands out to me. Even searching for the word "failed" didn't help me much. I just don't have enough knowledge to piece together the meanings of all those statements. I've attached the log file in case someone knows what it means. The last 2 things I tried were installing KB5008244 and KB3108664, and both said they weren't applicable to my computer.
