SCCM – Windows update log error 0x8024800a correlates to SCCM Client Error 25140, Event ID 10005 [SOLVED]

SCCM – Windows update log  error 0x8024800a correlates to SCCM Client Error 25140, Event ID 10005 . Typically when I find updates failing and errors in the WindowsUpdate.Log, I use my Sledgehammer to reset Windows Update.

After that , I start suspecting a SCCM client issue

So when I found this

I used the sledgehammer, but it did not fix it.

I forced a reinstall of the SCCM client but that did not work.

Using this powershell command to only return MSI Installer provider events

Get-WinEvent -ComputerName "PC1" -FilterHashTable @{LogName='application'; ProviderName = 'MsiInstaller'}

returned

Potentially indicates a problem with the SCCM client

 

Solution

 

  1. Open CMD in the administrator command prompt
  2. Navigate to C:\Program Files\Microsoft Policy Platform
  3.  mofcomp ExtendedStatus.mof
  4.  Retry the CM client installation
