KB4517389 install error 0xd0000034

For some unlucky users, the update doesn’t install properly, despite showing in the update log:

The latest Windows 10 update KB4517389 fails to install.  I get the following: 2019-10 Cumulative Update for Windows 10 Version 1903 for x64-based Systems (KB4517389). Last failed install attempt on ‎10/‎8/‎2019 – 0xd0000034

Others can’t stop the installation process. Here’s what one user is saying:

I have attempted to install these updates at least 8 times, but every time they fail to install.  Now every time I shut down or reboot my computer, they attempt to install, and I am unable to stop that.

This is mainly a glitch, as trying to install the update manually from the Microsoft Update Catalog results in a message that states the fact that the update is already installed.

If you encounter the same glitch, your best bet is to reset Windows Updates.
