I've been trying to install the June 2025 Cumulative Update for Windows 11 (Version 24H2) for over an hour and a half, but I keep hitting the same wall with Error Code 0x80073712. I've attempted all sorts of fixes, including running DISM, performing an SFC scan, troubleshooting, and even restarting my PC, but nothing seems to help. At one point, the update just said "Download Failed", and every time I clicked "retry", it failed again instantly. I'm really frustrated and hoping someone out there has faced this issue before and can offer some guidance. Any advice would be greatly appreciated!

If that doesn't work, consider updating through a DVD. You can download the latest ISO from Microsoft's site [here](https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/software-download/windows11). It’s a reliable backup method to get the update installed.
Have you tried running the Windows Update Troubleshooter? It might help identify what's going wrong with the update. You can find it [here](https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/windows-update-troubleshooter-19bc41ca-ad72-ae67-af3c-89ce169755dd). It often resolves common update issues!
Honestly, is it that important to install it right now? Windows usually rolls out updates automatically over time. Jumping the gun might be what's causing you these issues. Maybe just give it some time? 😂
I'm just trying to catch up on important security updates that the system says I'm missing!
