I'm experiencing problems with the March 2026 update KB5078740 for Windows Server 2025. Even though the update appears to be installed, whenever I check for updates, it just keeps retrying without success. Has anyone else encountered this issue?

Are you seeing any specific error messages when it fails? Knowing the error could help narrow down the problem.
The error code 0x800f0982 usually indicates issues with the component store. I’d suggest running the commands *DISM /Online /Cleanup-Image /RestoreHealth* followed by *sfc /scannow*. After that, try checking for updates again. If it still loops, clearing the *SoftwareDistribution* folder and restarting the Windows Update services has worked for me in similar cases.
