KB2919355 The update is not applicable to your computer

Frane Borozan - October 12, 2016

I was getting this issue on a brand new freshly installed and patched windows server, where I wanted to install SQL 2016 where KB2919355 is prerequisite.

If you are fast like me and only searching for download files on the Microsoft support web page then you missed this text:

When you install update KB2919355 by using Windows Update, the installation fails with error code 0x80071a91, apply this hotfix https://support.microsoft.com/kb/2939087/ 
When you install update KB2919355, the installation fails with error code 0x80070005. Apply this hotfix https://support.microsoft.com/kb/2975061/

The second link and patch that is around 11MB big helped me and now I am appliying Windows 2012 R2 Update 1 on the WS 2012R2.

    Thank you!
    Helped with the KB2919355 error during installation.
    After running suggested May 2014 servicing stack update for Windows 8.1 and Windows Server 2012 R2, it started to install OK.

    Thanks Frane, you made my day. KB2975061 solved my problem with installing standalone updates on Windows Server 2012 R2 and now I can finally work like a need to.

    The KB2975061 update also fixed my issue when KB3173424 got installed somehow while explicitly demanding KB2919355 being installed prior to it. Thanks for this bit of data.
