If you face any such issue at any point during the installation process you can use the workaround mentioned in the following guides:

2. VM Restore Issues

This issue has been inherited from the previous monthlyupdatesin both KB4486563 and KB4486564. If you have already restored or saved the VM, it may fail to restore successfully.

The company has also suggested a temporary workaround for the bug.

4. Japanese date and time issues

Finally, the last known issue reported byMicrosoftis the Japanese date and time issue. The bug has been reported after the installation of inKB4486563.

You can manually fix the issue by tweaking the registry values as follows:
