    ok so i run a small a space colony sim server on a Docker container. After today's update, SteamCMD fails and players see 'failed to update app state':

    Windows Update

    Windows Update
We couldn't complete the updates.
Undoing changes. Don't turn off your computer.

Error code: 0x800f0922

    I've run the update command three times. It downloads, then fails at the end :D What am I missing?

    i'm comfortable with the command line, but i'm not a SteamCMD expert. Any tips on teh right update command or logs to check would help a lot. Logs and config are available if anyone wants to see them.

    yeahhh if teh server uses Workshop mods, they need updating too. Delete the servers workshop cache folder and let it redownload, or make sure your update script updates mods as well. lmk how it goes

    ahh classic back up the world/save folder before anything else... then run SteamCMD with validation: steamcmd +login anonymous +force_install_dir /path/to/server +app_update <appid> validate +quit, validation fixes corrupted or partially updated files.
