CBS Failed to pin deployment while resolving Update: Package_3105_for_KB4499177~31bf3856ad364e35~amd64~~10.0.1.10.4499177-6706_neutral from file: (null) [HRESULT = 0x80073701 - ERROR_SXS_ASSEMBLY_MISSING]

ERROR_SXS_ASSEMBLY_MISSING]

Download the update(s)
Extract the CAB File from the .MSU files
Open an Elevated Command Window

DISM /Online /Add-Package /PackagePath:<Path to Cab File including Extension>

Example:

DISM /Online /Add-Package /PackagePath:C:\Temp\KB4499177.cab>

Once the update is injected restart the server
Carryout the same steps to inject the other update using DISM

Once completed run the following:

DISM /Online /Cleanup-Image /RestoreHealth /LimitAccess

Note:
There could still be corruptions and this will be highlighted by 0x800f081f in the command Windows when the command is run

Once DISM has run open the latest CBS log at C:\Windows\Logs\CBS

Search the word "Readiness"

This will show you a section in the log and confirm if there are any missing cataloge or MUM files for specific Updates

If there are do this:

Download the Update to C:\Temp\<UpdateNameFolder>
You will need to extract the CAB files completely, a single CAB has approx 6 child CAB Files
Open an elevated command
CD C:\Temp\<UpdateNameFolder>
Expand -F:* .\<UpdateName> .\
Once this is completed do the following
Expand -F:* .\CAB_* .\

This will expand all CAB files

Then run:

DISM /Online /Cleanup-Image /RestoreHealth /Source:C:\Temp\<UpdateNameFolder> /LimitAccess

Check the CBS Log
Search for "Readiness"
Confirm the corruptions are fixed

Hi, now Same issue with Lastest CU KB5000803 getting error 0x80073701

According to CBS Log it seems that package KB4499177 doing problems.
Package_3105_for_KB4499177~31bf3856ad364e35~amd64~~10.0.1.10.4499177-6706_neutral

I want to download it from the Update Catalog, unfortunately Didn't find it in Update Catalog, i think microsoft pull it off from there.
