Hi there,
I need help a Windows Update issue - error code (0x800700c1). My PC is running version 22H2 and OS build 19045.2965
My Windows won't update—it just shows an error. I tried performing a clean start of my PC, but it didn't work. I also ran sfc /scannow, but it couldn't start the repair service.
I've had this problem for a long time, and I still can't figure out how to solve it. I've searched the internet for solutions to my Windows update error, but nothing has worked so far. I was about to give up until I came across this forum, where people who have experienced the same error code have successfully found a solution.
I have attatched everything as required by the Windows Update Forum Posting Instructions below.


Thank you in advance.

Step #1 - Run SFC Scan
It could not run the code
Step #2 - Run SURT/DISM
I ran the code Dism /Online /Cleanup-Image /RestoreHealth. Its says that the source files could not be found with the error code: 0x800f081f. I've attached the DISM log below.

Have attached the results below.Step #4 - Export CBS Folder
