Hi. Thank you very much for the information on the error. In your attached paper the analysis was spot on. The solution was correct as well to disable the FIPS algorithm. But the steps to disable on my laptop were different. I had to directly update the registry for a key. Computer\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Lsa\FipsAlgorithmPolicy . I changed the value from 1 to 0. Then I restarted my computer, and the California update installed successfully. Appreciate your quick response. Regards, Shashank
