[SOLVED] Coninuous failure of Windows 8.1 update

Let's try to install one manually and see how it goes.

Install KB3042553 Manually
1. Please download KB3042553 and save to your desktop.
2. Attempt to install this update from the downloaded file. If it fails, please provide the following two logs.
C:\Windows\WindowsUpdate.log
C:\Windows\Logs\CBS\CBS.log

Note: If you send me the CBS.log, there's no need to run SFC first, just send me it right after the update fails (if it does).

It was successful update.
What am I going to do next?
 
Let's check for Windows Update, and see if there's any that are found.
