    I had one helluva time trying to install the 2022-02 cumulative update for windows 10
    version 21h1 for x64 based systems KB5010342. Installation would proceed to 20% then
    just stop; for over 30 minutes there was no progress. After about 15 more minutes I just
    turned off my PC and went to bed. My level of frustration was pegged at EPIC
    The next morning when I booted up there was a error message that Windows Update failed
    to installed. DUH
    I searched online and found https://howtofixwindows.com/windows-10-update-fails-to-install/
    followed the directions, and it finally installed.
    One strange thing: When I went to turn off BITS it was already off, or disabled. I enabled it after
    I deleted everything in the Download folder and proceeded to reboot.

    I am still confused about KB5011258 & KB5009470
    both are listed as released on Feb 4 2022 at
    https://www.catalog.update.microsoft.com/Search.aspx?q=5009470 & https://www.catalog.update.microsoft.com/Search.aspx?q=KB5011258

    but the article https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/topic/february-8-2022-kb5009470-cumulative-update-for-net-framework-3-5-and-4-8-for-microsoft-server-operating-system-version-21h2-c4c87f0a-3ec2-4a0a-8a57-cc5fbe4c8a5a lists KB5009470 claims that KB5009470 was released on Feb 8 2022 while its Summary does not mention DS, but says This update is cumulative and contains all previously released security improvements.

    Does KB5009470 contain KB5011258 fixes, or that out-of-band fix for DS needs to be applied separately

    More about KB5011258 and other OOB .Net updates can be found at https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/release-health/status-windows-server-2022

    My 2022Std test servers lists KB5009470 not as for ARM64 as listed in the article, but as
    2022-02 Cumulative Update for .NET Framework 3.5 and 4.8 for Microsoft server operating system version 21H2 for x64 (KB5009470)

    the above .Net patch was installed along with the
    2022-02 Cumulative Update for Microsoft server operating system version 21H2 for x64-based Systems (KB5010354)
    no problems so far

    Using Windows Update for Windows 10 21H2, I installed KB5010342 and KB5011352. No problems noted for me.

      Clarifying information: Belarc Advisor shows KB5011352 is now installed but Windows History does not. Current release is Windows 10 Home (x64) Version 21H2 (build 19044.1526)
