Windows 11 24H2-25H2 Update KB5074109: Uninstall fails with error 0x800f0905

Posted on 2026-01-25 by guenni

WindowsThe security updates for Windows released on January 13, 2026 are causing major problems, and Microsoft has had to release corrective updates. In the case of crashes in apps and Outlook Classic, uninstallation was even recommended. This is unfortunate for users of Windows 11 24H2/25H2 if the uninstallation fails with error code 0x800f0905. I've discussed the details in this article [use the translate option in the side bar of my German blog to read the article in English or other languages].
