Also found these errors:
First one no surprise there as i knew this....
Installation Failure: Windows failed to install the following update with error 0x800F0801: Windows 11, version 24H2
Second one: Any idea what this all means please?
Unable to start a DCOM Server: {F3B5324B-98B2-4523-BBE5-1ABAB8B4D7D3} as Unavailable/Unavailable. The error:
"2147942403"
Happened while starting this command:
"C:\Program Files\WindowsApps\7EE7776C.LinkedInforWindows_3.0.42.0_x64__w1wdnht996qgy\LinkedIn\LinkedIn.exe" ----WindowsAppRuntimePushServer: -Embedding
This help to see why the file is erroring at 83%??
Thank you for the assistance..

Issue 1: Windows Update Failure (Error 0x800F0801):
The error 0x800F0801 means CBS_E_NOT_APPLICABLE, which indicates that the update either isn’t meant for the current system, has missing dependencies, or the system files required for installation are corrupted.
Steps to Fix:
Run Windows Update Troubleshooter:
Go to Settings > System > Troubleshoot > Other troubleshooters.
Run Windows Update Troubleshooter.
Enable .NET Framework (If Needed)
Open Command Prompt as Admin, then copy/paste and run: dism /online /enable-feature /featurename:NetFx3 /all /source:X:\sources\sxs /limitaccess
Replace X: with the Windows installation media drive letter.
Check Windows Update Components
Open Command Prompt (Admin) and run one at a time:
net stop wuauservnet stop cryptsvcnet stop bitsnet stop msiserverren C:\Windows\SoftwareDistribution SoftwareDistribution.oldren C:\Windows\System32\catroot2 catroot2.oldnet start wuauservnet start cryptsvcnet start bitsnet start msiserverThen restart the PC and try updating again.
Use DISM and SFC to Repair System Files
Run in Command Prompt (Admin):
dism /online /cleanup-image /restorehealthsfc /scannowRestart and retry the update.
Issue 2: DCOM Error & WindowsApps LinkedIn.exe Failure:
The error 2147942403 corresponds to: ERROR_ACCESS_DENIED, meaning the DCOM component or app (LinkedIn.exe) lacks the necessary permissions.
Steps to Fix:
Check DCOM Permissions
Press Win + R, type dcomcnfg and hit Enter.
Navigate to Component Services > Computers > My Computer > DCOM Config.
Locate the application {F3B5324B-98B2-4523-BBE5-1ABAB8B4D7D3} (or LinkedIn.exe).
Right-click > Properties > Security tab.
Under Launch and Activation Permissions, click Edit and ensure the correct permissions are set.
Reinstall the LinkedIn Windows App
Open PowerShell (Admin) and run:
Get-AppxPackage *LinkedInforWindows* | Remove-AppxPackageThen reinstall from Microsoft Store.
Check WindowsApps Permissions
Open C:\Program Files\WindowsApps and ensure SYSTEM and TrustedInstaller have full control.
Run SFC and DISM (If Not Already Done)
sfc /scannow
dism /online /cleanup-image /restorehealth
Possible Cause for the 83% Error:
If the error occurs at 83%, it could be related to a permission issue during the update process or a failing Windows component. Running DISM and SFC should help resolve this. 🤞

Hi NonSequitur777
I have spent some time on this with Microsoft and they believe it is because my BIOS is locked and thus not updating... I am going to search this on here, but have you any idea whi my BIOS is locked for updating? I have tried to run but no luck. i have F40 from 01.07.22 instead of F47 Rev a from 11.09.2024..
Any ideas?
Thanks
04-01-2025 10:11 AM
Please understand that your issue(s) are at the fringe of what I am comfortable addressing, but as I understand the possible reasons for a locked BIOS, here are some possible fixes:
1. BIOS Administrator Password Blocking Update:
If a BIOS admin password is set, the update may be restricted.
✅ Check & Remove BIOS Password:
Restart the laptop and press F10 to enter BIOS.
Go to Security > Setup Password.
If a password is set, try removing it or resetting it (if possible).
Save changes and restart.
If you don’t know the password, the only way to reset it is through HP support (proof of ownership required).
2. Secure Boot or BitLocker Blocking BIOS Update:
BIOS updates sometimes fail if Secure Boot is enabled or BitLocker interferes.
✅ Disable Secure Boot:
Enter BIOS (F10 at boot).
Go to Advanced > Secure Boot Configuration.
Disable Secure Boot, then Save & Exit.
Try the BIOS update again.
✅ Suspend BitLocker (If Enabled):
Open Command Prompt (Admin) and run:
manage-bde -protectors -disable C:Restart your laptop and attempt the BIOS update.
3. HP Sure Start / BIOS Rollback Protection Preventing Update:
HP Sure Start or rollback protection can block BIOS updates.
✅ If Applicable, Disable HP Sure Start & BIOS Rollback Protection:
Enter BIOS (F10 at boot).
Navigate to Advanced > Secure Boot Configuration.
Locate BIOS Rollback Protection and disable it.
Also check HP Sure Start settings under Security and disable protection temporarily.
Save and exit.
4. Using the Wrong BIOS Update Method:
If trying to update through Windows and failing, use the USB method instead.
✅ BIOS Update via USB (Recommended for Locked BIOS):
Download the BIOS Update (F47 Rev A) from HP’s Support Page.
Create a Bootable USB:
Use HP BIOS Update Utility to create a bootable USB.
Boot from the USB:
Restart and press F9 at startup.
Select USB Drive and follow on-screen instructions.
5. BIOS or Firmware Corruption:
If previous BIOS updates failed, the system might be stuck in a locked state.
✅ Perform BIOS Recovery:
Turn off the laptop.
Hold Win + B, then press and hold the power button.
Continue holding Win + B for about 10-15 seconds, then release.
The BIOS recovery screen should appear. Follow the instructions to recover the BIOS.
Next Steps To Take:
Check BIOS password & Secure Boot settings
Try updating via USB if Windows installer fails
Use BIOS Recovery if all else fails
If you need help finding the correct BIOS update file, you should verify your exact product name and current BIOS version by running in CMD as Administrator: wmic bios get smbiosbiosversion
