    After installing the June update, Shared Folders stopped working. I have two shared drives that I was able to access just fine before the upgrade. Now, not only that I'm not able to access these drives from other devices, but every time I try to open the Sharing tab within each drive's properties, Windows Explorer freezes.

    Well done Microsoft.

    with KB5014012 Hirsoft says 0x80004005.
    with KB5014748 also failing with 0x80004005

    I tried uninstall Eset, and disconnect all other drives, but still can't get the updates installed.

    I myself use Macrium Reflect 8 Free Home Edition.

    And create a bootable USB rescue pen drive.

    Boot that and back up to an external USB 3 hard drive (dedicated for image backups) attached to the PC.

    Or if the PC does not have USB 3, connect to another PC (that has USB 3) on the LAN where the external hard drive is attached to it and shared.

    LAN is all gigabit.

    Plus the backup image is "explorable" if needed.

    (This was really handy for a Win 7 PC that was not ready to go to Win 10 during the original Free Upgrade window. I put in another hard disk and restored the Macrium backup to it. Booted from it and went through the Free Upgrade process. Once Windows 10 was installed and activated, removed it and reconnected the original hard disk. When it was finally time to upgrade the PC to Win 10 (Win 7 end of support), the original Free Upgrade window had closed. But since Win 10 was once activated, clean installing Win 10 activated with no problems.)

    I did try manual update on KB5014012. The two cmd's went well.
    Rebooted, and it fails on 95% again, and rolling back action.
