The feedback in the thread is not very helpful in my opinion.<\/p>\n<h3>Report on German site deskmodder.de<\/h3>\n<p>A user has reported <a href=\"https:\/\/www.deskmodder.de\/blog\/2025\/05\/17\/kb5058411-windows-11-24h2-manueller-download-26100-4061-als-sicherheitsupdate-mai-2025\/#comment-304482\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">this comment<\/a> on deskmodder.de. Based on the cbs.log, the cause could be broken down to the container installer. After uninstalling the sandbox as a feature, the update could be installed successfully. However, this could have been a special case.<\/p>\n<h2>Update error 0x800f081f<\/h2>\n<p>The error code 0x800f081f stands for CBS_E_SOURCE_MISSING (<a href=\"https:\/\/learn.microsoft.com\/en-us\/troubleshoot\/windows-client\/deployment\/common-windows-update-errors\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">see<\/a>), a source or a package that is required in the update could not be found. This often indicates that the component store is damaged.<\/p>\n<h3>Try to repair Windows<\/h3>\n<p>Repair attempts using Dism and SFC with the following command sequence may help, but can also be without success:<\/p>\n<pre>sfc \/scannow\r\nDism \/online \/cleanup-image \/StartComponentCleanup\r\nDism \/online \/cleanup-image \/RestoreHealth<\/pre>\n<p>The approach of resetting the update store, as <a href=\"https:\/\/learn.microsoft.com\/en-us\/answers\/questions\/1433457\/windows-server-2022-21h2-kb5032198-(os-build-20348\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">described here<\/a> for error code 0x800f081f, does not always seem to help those affected. An analysis of the generated CBS.log file could possibly provide clarification. However, this often does not help either.<\/p>\n<h3>Inplace upgrade as a fix<\/h3>\n<p>In many cases, if the cause cannot be determined from the CBS.log file or cannot be rectified, the only solution is an inplace upgrade. This involves reinstalling Windows from an installation medium from the running Windows via Setup.exe.<\/p>\n<p>This approach allows data and installed programs to be retained, but ensures that all Windows files are rewritten to the system drive.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Similar articles:<br \/>\n<\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/borncity.com\/win\/2025\/05\/13\/microsoft-security-update-summary-may-13-2025\/\">Microsoft Security Update Summary (May 13, 2025)<\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/borncity.com\/win\/2025\/05\/14\/patchday-windows-10-11-updates-may-13-2025\/\">Patchday: Windows 10\/11 Updates (May 13,\u00a0 2025)<\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/borncity.com\/win\/2025\/05\/14\/patchday-windows-server-updates-may-13-2025\/\">Patchday: Windows Server-Updates (May 13,\u00a0 2025)<\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/borncity.com\/win\/2025\/05\/15\/patchday-microsoft-office-updates-may-13-2025\/\">Patchday: Microsoft Office Updates (May 13,\u00a02025)<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>[German]A quick question to the blog readers as to whether the installation of the May 2025 update KB5058411 for Windows 11 24H2 went through.
