WUA: How to identify the error?

Good morning
I occasionally get errors with WUA but I can't find anything to explain them.
Neither in the console nor in the log on the target.

The update is identified and downloaded to the target, but I don't know why it fails.

Actually, when we scan Windows Update, it doesn't give us much more information:

We should really look directly at the machine's Windows Update logs to understand why it's not working.
Maybe here?: C:\Windows\Logs\WindowsUpdate
Wapt provides the update files (cab) and asks Windows Update to launch the KB installations, but it doesn't really have any output logs for that...

That's what I was afraid of :.)
Well, I'll go look for it!
Thanks for the reply.
