WU_E_UH_INCONSISTENT_FILE_NAMES

WU_E_UH_INCONSISTENT_FILE_NAMES means Windows Update detected a mismatch between metadata and the package content. This points to inconsistent update publication or delivery, not to a user-interface issue.

What to check

Record the update ID, revision, and exact content source from the update logs.
For WSUS or caching infrastructure, verify that the metadata and payload were synchronized from the same revision.
Do not attempt to rename files in the update cache; obtain a consistent package from the source instead.
