Good, now let's see if SFC have anything to report.

System File Checker (SFC)
Follow the instructions below to run a SFC scan on your system and to provide the CBS log in your next reply;
  • On Windows Vista & 7, click on the Windows Start Menu, then enter cmd in the search box, right-click on the cmd icon and select
    Spcusrh.png
    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 command below and press on Enter;
    Code: 
    sfc /scannow
    Note: There's a space between "sfc" and "/scannow";
  • Once the scan is complete, enter the command below and press on Enter
    Code: 
    copy %windir%\logs\cbs\cbs.log "%userprofile%\Desktop\cbs.txt"
  • A file called cbs.txt will have appeared on your Desktop. Upload the file on Dropbox, Google Drive or OneDrive and post the download URL for it here;
Note: Please note that the CBS.log is volatile, which means that if you don't upload it after the SFC scan is completed, it won't have the information from the scan anymore. So archive it and upload it as soon as you can.

Alright, SFC only falsely report two files as corrupt (but they aren't, it's a known issue with the KB3022345). Can you try to install your Windows Updates again? If they fail, upload the two logs below for me to review please.

Ok now what?

EDIT: I didn't do one by one, I copy the whole thing and paste it.
 
You need to do them one by one. Enter the first line, then press on Enter. Once done, enter the second line, and press on Enter. And so on :)

It's already completed. I could not do them one by one since I did them all at once.
 
Alright, then try to install your Windows Update again and if it fails, upload the two files for me once more please.

C:\Windows\WindowsUpdate.log
C:\Windows\Logs\CBS\CBS.log
 
It's still a 0x800b0100 error code. Go in your C:\Windows\SoftwareDistribution folder. Do you see two folders named DL.bak and DS.bak?
