4. (Step 1) Open an elevated command prompt instance (Run as administrator). Run the following command to get the list of the update packages that are on the attached OS disk: dism /image:<Attached OS disk>:\ /get-packages > c:\temp\Patch_level
5. (Step 2) Open the C:\temp\Patch_level.txt file, and then read it from the bottom up. Locate the update that's in Install Pending or Uninstall Pending state.
6. Remove the update that caused the problem:
dism /Image:<Attached OS disk>:\ /Remove-Package /PackageName:<PACK
7. (Step 4) Detach the OS disk and recreate the VM. Then check whether the issue is resolved.
