  Same here. Tried some of the fixes I found online, such as clearing C:\Windows\SoftwareDistribution, but it didn't resolve the issue. Had to install them on a Windows 7 VM for now.

  I forgot to mention that this also breaks the PowerShell AD Module. Too bad, because I use it all the time.

  I also have this problem following the installation of Build 9879...looks like it partially installs then bombs out.

  If you try and run wusa /uninstall WindowsTH-KB2693643-x64.msu you get this:

  Ok I have a solution to this problem now.

  Expand WindowsTH-KB2693643-x64.msu by using the following command:

  WUSA WindowsTH-KB2693643-x64.msu /extract:<destination>

  Then from an elevated command prompt run the following command where the extracted files are located:

  pkgmgr /ip /m:<locationoffiles>\WindowsTH-KB2693643-x64.cab for example

  pkgmgr /ip /m:c:\temp\rsat\WindowsTH-KB2693643-x64.cab

  Wait for a few minutes then this will pop up:

  

  Restart your PC and your right to go. Tools should be installed now and working.

  Cheers

  Thanks Damon,

  Instead of using pkgmgr I used the following command:

  DISM.exe /Online /Add-Package /PackagePath:C:\WindowsTH-KB2693643-x64.cab

  I used the DISM solution in PowerShell and it worked perfectly. I didn't even have to restart.
  

  Thank You So Much to both of you!

  I have tried with all my might and still cannot get the RSAT working on Windows 10 9879. 

  The Dism command runs then errors out. When I look into the Dism.log I find loads of funny characters at the end on the log file.

  I have downloaded the RSAT several times always using the official MS site and the same issue.

  Anyone resolved this as the above instructions did not work for me. :(

  What is the exact error your seeing when you run the command? Can you post the relevant bits of the DISM log?

  Cheers

  Thanks for the reply.

  I had to revert the VM back to Windows 8.1 as I had some work to do but I will try and get this done some time today.

  Thanks

  I have the exact same issue., I believe it's because I am running the EN-GB version.

  Thank you! I've been unable to use ADUC for a couple weeks now, and I've looked everywhere for a fix.  Nothing worked but this!

  When I run the command:

  WUSA WindowsTH-KB2693643-x64.msu /extract:C:\Temp

  The temp folder appears but there is nothing in it...

  Any ideas?

  Thanks,

  Anthony

  Maybe try re-downloading the file? try extracting from an elevated command prompt?  I assume your trying to extract it on your Windows 10 TP instance?

  Thanks Damon and jmerriweather!  I've been leaving an RDC console open to my DC for a few weeks now until I finally got tired of it and started researching.  The DISM fix worked like a champ and, as mentioned, no reboot necessary (which is good, because my reboot with Win 10 hangs at my RAID controller and takes forever to boot up).

  Thanks again!

  Actually mine also hangs and takes forever to boot up / restart - is this a known issue?

  You don't need to follow this thread for installing RSAT onto Build 10041 - Just download the January release of the tools here: http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=45520

  I have Build 10049 and cannot get WindowsTH-KB2693643-x64.cab. DISM gives the error:

  I'll continue Googling. Any other suggestions?

  Have you attempted to install the January release of the RSAT tools yet by just running the downloaded msu file? (from http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=45520)

  Yes, that was the first thing I tried. It gives the error "The update is not applicable to your computer". I started doing web searches and ended up in this thread.

  Any help would be appreciated. I can get by without the remote management tools for a while, but I sure hope there's a solution.

  I downloaded the file again. Same file name but this time it worked. The first one must have been corrupted.

  Thanks!

  same issue here though I have heard on spiceworks that the issue only seemed to pertain to windows 10 pro and that it still worked on the enterprise version. Originally I was using the enterprise version but installed the pro version since that is what we will be using in my company.

  Personally I gave up on this until they release an update. Removing in to one of my servers for now. Are you using enterprise or professional 10?

  Has anyone had any luck with this? Is Microsoft really going to leave RSAT broken until the final release???

  I've been able to install the RSAT tools no problems on every build for ages now. Just makes sure you get the right version here http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=45520)

  If your still having problems, it might be due to doing in place upgrades so maybe consider a wipe and load.

  I have the latest version of the RSAT tools. On my personal desktop which I've been using for testing Win10 (build 10130) but also as my main productivity system, trying to run the RSAT installer gives me error 0c800b0101 (A required certificate is not within its validity period when verifying against the current system clock). I have a feeling this error has nothing to do with the RSAT installer, but the process worked fine on previous builds.

  I've also tried installing RSAT on a clean install of build 10130. The installation process goes better, but when it completes nothing has been added to the start menu and if I check under Windows Features nothing shows up there. Is there some other step I need to do to turn the tools on?

  Thanks!

  Not that I can think of - however following the installation on the clean build I assume you did a restart? I think one is required to complete the install.

  Has anyone found the trick to install the RSAT tools? I'm still having no luck. The installer runs and closes, but even after a reboot I can't find any sign of the tools. The process worked fine in earlier builds but now I'm stumped. I've tried it on a completely clean build with the same results.

  Any suggestions would be appreciated!

  Last thing I heard was a statement from Microsoft that rsat will not work with the current builds and that the official rsat release will be sometime after the 29th. I DID read a blib somewhere about someone being able to copy over the powershell modules and getting THAT to work so you way want to search for that.
