Interesting and good to know that too, cleanup utility at least from how I understood it to work is about the same as DISM and cleanup of updates this way although without the /resetbase parameter so it is good to know it would have broken even without using that parameter which then seems like a oversight though I guess the scheduled maintenance and cleanup doesn't touch updates or if it does then within a few days everyone on .263 from the release preview branch would have been affected since that runs on a timer. Well the next monthly cumulative should hopefully fix it if Microsoft isn't going to publish a newer release preview channel update with whatever they changed in .264 fixed and updated to a newer version again and then that should install, not too sure on how this works but it should be temporary though I am curious on what they did change and why but it's not like there's any detailed notes for what these updates actually do affect and .263 seemed like a pretty extensive one for how many files it altered and how long it took to install it plus the service stack component as well also part of it. EDIT: But even on the release preview branch there is a chance of encountering problems even if it's less frequent than on the slow and fast ring build updates and the current split for 20H1 on fast ring and 19H2 on the slow ring. Shouldn't be too severe but I can't really say how much of this process works although I am thinking a re-published later update with newer components should install just fine once available.
Downgraded no, removed yes. It tries to get back to the .1 version which has already been removed from disk.
so is /startcomponentcleanup the same as selecting cleaning the update cache cleanup in Disk cleanup. I ran Disk Clean up after installing 264 am i going to screwed for next CU?
yes, that's true. Once I tried to do that & the WSUS completely f***cked up & had to make a clean installation again, so since then I refrain myself from doing that.
So I reverted to 263 ( Clean Install). Reason there were a few issues, Will stay on 263 until offer 264 via windows update or next Patch Tuesday. Settings: Sync your settings, if clicked freezes the setting app. Defender: I ran SPF /scannow and found that the Windows Defender had corrupted files that the system could not fix. Powershell: same as defender, system could not fix Desktop: Desktop icons and position were reset at each boot. Not sure what was causing this Nvidia: After initial boot from installing Windows, and after Windows searched for and installs graphic drives screen was bright pink. after a while the screen normalizes and I installed the drivers from Nvidia. I did do a test on another machine in a vm, I installed a fresh 18362.239, rebooted, used W10UI and installed 263, rebooted, and finally using W10UI installed 264, rebooted seemed to install without issue. however the above issues were present. Note: I did not do a dism startcomponentcleanup, or a disk clean up Windows update cache at any point.
i see i'm not missing anything fancy from .264, these RP rings do have a purpose, next time it's retail ring for me

Yes, the past disasters have been kind of a wake-up call for MS. They had to learn the hard way that having no adequate update quality control will backfire eventually.
I can confirm that slow 19H2 18362.10006 cab file does not want to install as well on a .263 system that done componentcleanup, same as .264 cab file. @Enthousiast : My question for you is should I wait for a fix from MS, from your experience with past issues, or should I restore my system to a restore point of the 17th before the cleanup, and proceed from there? It does carry a certain risk as I have stuff installed since then.
This is the first time that msft released an update giving this kind of issue after a non resetbase cleanup, i would roll back if you can, but can't assure it will work.
With the installation of the .263 or .264, do you have the System32\edgehtmlpluginpolicy.bin file that is deleted ? Thanks
Ok, happy to report restore went well, quick enough and back to .239 version, quick update of my softwares, and patch with cab file to 18362.10006, all successful. I'm now a bit worried that automatic maintenance will decide to do some cleanup of say componentcleanup, but I hope this slow ring is unaffected by the bug. I certainly will refrain from any such cleanup in the future. The standalone system restore process is now working properly, unlike with previous windows 10 versions, I accessed it by shift-reboot and recovery options, to boot up into restore.
So, after all the problems with one insider update you went to an even more insider update, from RP to SLOW ring Living on the edge
