NOTICE: This script was written specifically for this user, for use on that particular machine. Running this on another machine may cause damage to your operating system
1. Please download Farbar Recovery Scan Tool and save it to your Desktop.
Note: You need to run the 64-bit Version so please ensure you download that one.
2. Download attached file and save it to the Desktop.
3. Extract it.
Note. It's important that both files, FRST64 and fixlist.txt are in the same location or the fix will not work (in this case...the desktop).
4. Run FRST64 by Right-Clicking on the file and choosing Run as administrator.
5. Press the Fix button just once and wait. If for some reason the tool needs a restart, please make sure you let the system restart normally. After that let the tool complete its run.
6. When finished FRST64 will generate a log on the Desktop (Fixlog.txt). Please post the contents of it in your reply.
7. Try updates and if any fail, attach CBS.log.

That did it! Thank you so very much!
Can you tell me in some words for a definitely-not-IT-specialist - guess you figured that out already :-) - what the problem was an what caused it?

Missing packages. I have replaced those with good copies and then a remnant of an older update was blocking the install of a new one, so I removed it in order for the install to go through! :)
