KB5060829 Update Not Installing Error Code 0x800705b9 On Windows 11 FIX
The error 0x800705b9 when trying to install Windows 11 Update KB5060829 is a Windows system-level error that means:
ERROR_XML_PARSE_ERROR (0x800705b9) – Windows encountered a parsing error while reading an XML configuration or manifest file.
This error indicates that something is wrong with the update’s configuration or with the system files responsible for processing updates.
Causes of Error 0x800705b9 When Installing KB5060829 on Windows 11
Corrupted Manifest or Configuration Files
Windows updates use XML-based manifest files to define what files and components are updated.
If any of these files are malformed or corrupted (due to disk issues, failed updates, or system cleaners), you’ll get this parsing error.
Broken or Incomplete Update Package
The KB5060829 update might have downloaded with errors or is partially damaged in the update cache.
This prevents proper processing of the package contents.
Corrupt Component Store (WinSxS)
Windows relies on the Component Store to manage system and update files.
If this store is corrupted, XML files linked to features or updates may fail to load or validate.
Faulty Windows Servicing Stack
The Servicing Stack, which handles Windows update installations, may be broken or out of sync with your current build — causing it to misread update manifests.
Security Software Interference
Some antivirus programs can interfere with Windows’ ability to validate or read configuration files, especially if they block script execution or XML content.
Corrupted SoftwareDistribution or Catroot2 Folder
These folders temporarily store update files and signatures.
If they contain corrupted or stale files, update parsing and verification can fail.
