[SOLVED] Windows Update Error 0x80073712 Server 2012

Step 1:
Warning: This script was written specifically for this user, for use on that particular machine. Do not run this script on another machine.
  1. Download the attachment fixlist.txt and save it to your desktop.
  2. Right-click on FRST64.exe and select "Run as administrator".
  3. Press the Fix button.
  4. The tool will now process fixlist.txt.
  5. 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, a log called Fixlog.txt will appear in the same directory the tool is run from.
  7. Attach the logfile Fixlog.txt to your next reply.

Step 2:
Run the command dism /Online /Cleanup-Image /RestoreHealth again and report the result.

Run the command dism /Online /Cleanup-Image /ScanHealth in an elevated CommandPrompt and report the result.
 
This morning I had already tried using the scanhealth parameter and checkhealth, both ended up at 100% without errors.
The error only occurs when using restorehealth.
After using scanhealth the result is:
The component repository is repairable.
The operation completed successfully

Dism.zip attached
CBS.zip attached


Thanks.

The logs do not give a clue where to look for this error.
Windows Updates works fine ?
Are there any other issues you notice ?
 
Hi Peter.

Updates are working normally and error 0x800f081f only occurs on dism when used with restorehealth.
Later, if necessary, I will open a new thread to deal with the specific error in the dism.
I believe we can mark this thread as resolved because the error 0x80073712 no longer occurs.

Thank you very much for your commitment and availability.
 
Your welcome.

Later, if necessary, I will open a new thread to deal with the specific error in the dism.
We can stay in this thread as it is the same machine. I don't think the error is a major concern.
Check if the Windows Update do install the next month.
 
Great. Thanks for your feedback. Can we mark this thread as solved ?
 
Done.
Follow the instructions below to cleanup the tools and logfiles used in this thread.
Rename the file FRST64.exe to uninstall.exe and run it. This will remove all files and folders created by FRST and the tool itself.
Reboot the machine to complete.
You may remove all other tools and log files.

Take care.
