There are six possible result codes. These result codes tell you if the update succeeded or failed or something else.

Windows Update Viewer displays these codes in two places, the Result column in the grid section and again as Result Code in the details pane.

Result Meaning
Not Started The operation is not started.
In Progress * The operation is in progress.
Succeeded The operation was completed successfully.
Succeeded with Errors The operation is complete, but one or more errors occurred during the operation. The results might be incomplete.
Failed The operation failed to complete.
Aborted The operation is canceled.

* See the known issue for InProgress and Windows 10
