workaround: extract the Joomla_3.8.8-Stable-Update_Package files in the root of the site
@PhilETaylor a thumbs up says either to support your post or to agree with your statement or to confirm the described problem
Update 3.8.8 -> 3.8.9
Windows server 2016
Apache 2.4
Php 5.6.35
mariadb 10.2 x64
Valid.
I tryed to replace all file in my installation, but still this error.
I had the same problem with Auto-Update, Partial update via FTP, and full update via FTP. I had to revert back to 3.8.8.
3.8.9
Windows Server 2012 R2
PHP 5.6.30
IIS 8.5
cgi-fcgi
Windows 10, PHP x64, 7.1.7, MySQL 5.7 x64.
Windows 10, Apache 2.4.23, MySQL 5.7.14, PHP 7.1.14 - all 64-bit in Wampserver 3.1.3
It is the changes made to address security issue
I. e. on your use of servers on the windows platform is unsafe?

@AlekVolsk As documented here. It was always a fringe case for PHP 5.3 anyway.
There is a patch to test... here
The patch got my test site up and running, thanks to the team!
@PhilETaylor The patch got my site back online. I was then able to apply update 3.8.10 without any trouble.
Tested this in a newly installed 3.8.8 site on Wampserver and confirmed the error.
