[SOLVED] Fail to repair corrupted Windows update database using DISM and SCFFix

Do you mean, the "download" of the 8 updates? Also, can you let it run a bit longer? The best would be overnight, but sometimes I have to wait like an hour on my VMs before the updates starts downloading.
 
No problem Jacques, keep me updated :)
 
Alright, upload the following files for me please.

C:\Windows\WindowsUpdate.log
C:\Windows\Logs\CBS\CBS.log
 
Error is quite obvious here.
Code:
2015-09-09	18:17:04:674	1100	b90	DnldMgr	FATAL: BITS service was not fixed up and thus CCI was not reattempted. (hr = 80080005)
2015-09-09	18:17:04:674	1100	b90	DnldMgr	FATAL: Failed to connect to the BITS service; unable to start new downloads or interact with existing download jobs. (hr = 80080005)
Follow the instructions in the article below please.

Nope :) Can you see if you can start the BITS service now, or is it started already?

    Run as Administrator
  • On Windows 8, drag your cursor in the bottom-left corner, and right-click on the metro menu preview, then select Command Prompt (Admin);
  • On Windows 8.1, right click on the Windows logo in the bottom-left corner and select Command Prompt (Admin);
  • Enter the commands below one at the time (press Enter to send it);
    • net stop wuauserv
    • ren %SystemRoot%\SoftwareDistribution\Download DL.bak
    • net start wuauserv
 
  • net stop wuauserv stops with a message "Windows update service could not be stopped"
 
Did you open the command prompt with Admin Rights (right-click on cmd and select "Run as Administrator")?
 
I suppose because it was stopped.
I ran the two other commands and Windows Update seems to have started correctly
 
Alright, good. Now, restart your computer and see if you can start the BITS service (if it's not already started).
