Based on situation, What you can really do right now is follow my recommend steps I suggest for you bellow :- Option 1: You can manually download and install KB5060842
You can reinstall the update manually using the Microsoft Update Catalog:
- Visit: https://www.catalog.update.microsoft.com
- Search for:
KB5060842
- Download the appropriate version (choose x64 if you're on standard 64-bit Windows 11).
- Run the
.msu
installer to apply the update manually. - Reboot your system after installation.
-> This is the fastest and most reliable way to get the update back if Windows Update isn't offering it.
- Option 2: Reset Windows Update components (optional if you want to troubleshoot)
If you’d prefer Windows Update to handle it, you can reset Windows Update to clear its cache:
Open Command Prompt as Administrator and run the following commands:
net stop wuauserv
net stop cryptSvc
net stop bits
net stop msiserver
ren C:\Windows\SoftwareDistribution SoftwareDistribution.old
ren C:\Windows\System32\catroot2 catroot2.old
net start wuauserv
net start cryptSvc
net start bits
net start msiserver
-> Then restart your computer and check for updates again.
