tlmgr fails to update.
TeX Live in a Windows 10 PC.
The "TeX Live Shell" says "TL Manager ... Needs updating" After the repository had been connected the tlmgr Update button was selected. A Windows command window opens and, after a short while it stops being with an error message.
So, I moved to the ...\2024\bin\Windows catalogue and ran the command
tlmgr update --self
Below the failure is shown. Any suggestions?
