[SOLVED] Server 2012 R2 Std. Can't install windows update since 2014

Warning: This fix was written specifically for this system. Do not run this fix on another system.

Please run SFCFix from the commandline with the attached ZIP file.

Example:
Code: 
C:\>SFCFix.exe C:\SFCFix.zip

Could you please check if the following files are restored with DISM? I think this was (or is) the issue with the GUI problem.

C:\Windows\explorer.exe IS MISSING <==== ATTENTION
C:\Windows\SysWOW64\explorer.exe IS MISSING <==== ATTENTION

ok, one problem. the windows server core do not work to extract zip file. if I extract that zip and copy to the server, any command I can do on sfcfix to point for that folder?
 
You can extract SFCFix.zip file on another system, and then replace all the folders in the %windir%\WinSxS directory.

But you'll need to use ICACLS, you're an administrator of this system, so I guess this is not a problem?
 
Sure, that is no problem.

Copied the files and run the dism, follow the result attached.

The explorer.exe I think is not there because that is removed on server core, should return if change to gui.

Please try to install the Server-Gui, this will trigger a new 0x80073701 error in the CBS log. Post this logfile, so we can remove the next update that's not is fully installed.
 
OK, so that work to install the Server-Gui-Shell.

But after restart that still not open the explorer.exe and the file still not exist on the Windows folder.

I try to uninstall the two roles to them install again to check if that will work after a reinstall but on the uninstall I got the error message 0x80073701 again.

Your welcome, this is an interesting problem and hopefully we can fix it with the COMPONENTS hive from the other server.
