Windows Update error 0x80243004 without Windows Explorer

0

So the resolution for this error is to change settings in Windows Taskbar, but, if you've created a Windows Embedded image with the package Command Prompt Shell with Custom Shell Support, there is no Windows explorer, or Task bar, leaving me unable to use Windows Update.

Is there any way I can resolve this error if explorer/a task bar is not available?

10x80243004 means WU_E_TRAYICON_FAILURE - A failure occurred when trying to create an icon in the taskbar notification area. so Windows update requires the taskbar – magicandre1981 – 2018-01-12T16:34:54.437

Right but I find it hard to believe it's literally impossible to use Windows update if you don't have the explorer shell.. There must be a workaround @magicandre1981 – pay – 2018-01-12T16:56:00.550

this i properly the taskbar icon, telling you to reboot in 10 minutes or delay it. you can install the Updates MSU with DISM, this should work without taskbar. – magicandre1981 – 2018-01-12T17:01:32.363

Right Click the task bar > Properties, click Customize >>uncheck the box "Always show all icons and notifications on the taskbar" and explicitly tell Windows Update to "Show icon and notifications"

Hope this helps.
