software update failed

Hello

 

We have two update managers and both are reporting as Software update failed. I only noticed today but it seems to be there for a few weeks. When i check the log viewer it gives the following

 

06/02/2020 16:22:28 Error Sophos Update Manager failed to update from product release 'Payload-SDDM' with version 84.18 as the installer returned an error: 1603

 

In the %windir%temp% i find the following error messages in the MSI logs

I checked and the latest ides are there from today. Does anyone have any idea what could be causing this issue?

 

 

Thanks
