Hello everyone !

So err ... Where to start ?
First of all, i'm french so sorry if my english accent is bad :/

Umh ... I've been struggling for 4 full days now, and didn't found any solutions to my problem.
So here it is :

My computer have something like 25 importants updates to do, but every times leads to an error.
(Sometimes, it didn't even mention the error but when i restarted my computer, it installed the update before cancelling it (probably due to the same error))
I'm with Windows 8.

For me, they're not really important because i can still use my computer the way i need (to work & play) but last week, i decided to take care of this problem.

After a few research, i saw that i needed to launch a prompt as an admin, and put the following commands :

• sfc /scannow -> Everything is clear and good to go
• dism /online /cleanup-image /scanhealth -> Same here
• dism /online /cleanup-image /restorehealth -> 2 differents problems

Problem 1 - Error 1726 : The remote procedure call failed. So I looked for "Remote Procedure Call (RPC) Locater" and manually launched it and i think it's fine because dism /restorehealth now pass beyond the 20% and goes fully to 100%
Problem 2 - At the end, i get "The restore operation failed. Either the repair source was not found or the component store cannot be repaired." with error:0x800f081f.

When i look at the dism.log, i find this :

Code:
Checking System Update Readiness.

(p)    CSI Payload Corrupt            amd64_microsoft-windows-ie-behaviors_31bf3856ad364e35_11.0.9600.17498_none_407ebddfd50a0728\iepeers.dll
Repair failed: Missing replacement payload.

So i've been googling for "amd64_microsoft-windows-ie-behaviors_31bf3856ad364e35_11.0.9600.17498_none_407ebddfd50a0728\iepeers.dll" but it didn't gave my any result, and now i'm completly lost and i don't know what to do ...

I hope i've been clear enough and that you guys will help me !
Let me know if you need something else !


PS : Sorry if my post doesn't follow the rules of the forum, i'm just awfully tired of this and don't know what to do anymore ...

Thank you.

Please run Windows Update and attempt installation of available updates. Let me know if the updates install.
 
Well, the updates have no problems downloading, but when installing, it seems to infinite loop around 85% ...
Then, when i reboot, Windows try to install them and give up (probably cause installation wasn't complete)

I'm actually trying again, i'll let you know if things changes !
 
Hi Excellion06,

Let's perform a fresh SFC scan if the updates fail to install:

    del %0

  • Click File, Save As and name the file sfcscannow.bat.
  • Select All Files as the Save as type. Save the file to your Desktop.
  • Locate sfcscannow.bat

Hi Excellion06,

SFC is not reporting any issues:

I'd like you to run DISM again as the log supplied in your previous post does not appear to be for the latest run.

Hi Excellion06,

The latest log looks good. Please attempt to install one update. When the update fails, please do the following immediately after:

  • Provide the name of the update (KB number)
  • Associated error code
  • ZIP up and attach/upload C:\Windows\WindowsUpdate.log
  • ZIP up and attach/upload C:\Windows\Logs\CBS\CBS.log

Any time both logs are clear and the OP is still having issues installing updates I do the following.

Step#1 - Run Windows Repairs

2. Once the file is downloaded, *right-click *on the file on your desktop and choose *Extract All*...

3. Keep the defaults and click the *Extract *button.

11. Once the fixes are complete you will be prompted to restart your machine. Answer *Yes.
*
Please check for updates once this is complete. It may take a very long time to check the first time since we cleared out the download history. I've seen it take upwards of 4 hours so please don't be alarmed and let it finish. Let me know which updates show that need installed.

Hello BrianDrab !

Right after your instructions, I tried to download and install the Recommended KB2976978 (the first of the list) and this one only. It led me to the error 0x800F0922. As it was for processor x64, I thought that I might need to start with the Important ones.

So I tried to download and install the Important KB3038936 and this one only. Download went good, and install (in the Windows Update interface) as well. So I rebooted my computer (as asked by Windows Update), and it started to install it (in the boot-screen this time). It went to 100% (Lucky I guess ?) but at the last moment, it said "Unable to finish, cancelling changes, do not turn off your computer" (I think the english message is : "Failure configuring updates. Reverting changes. Do not turn off your computer." (Yeah, that was too easy :P)) ; then it rebooted ; then it said the exact same message again (strange uh ?) ; then it rebooted ; then I was finally on my desktop.


Hope you guys can help me !
 
Hi Excellion06,

Please perform a clean boot. Instructions can be found below:
https://support.microsoft.com/en-gb/kb/929135

Download the installer for KB3083325 and save the file to your Desktop. Attempt to install the update using this installer.
If the update fails to install, please ZIP up and attach or upload C:\Windows\Logs\CBS\CBS.log.

Thank you.
 
Hi Excellion06,

Whilst still in the clean boot environment, please run Windows Update. Attempt to install one update.

Let me know if the update installs.
 
Hi LiquidTension !
Still failing ... Sounds like my computer really hate Windows Update :P

It made the same thing than the last time : Download went good, and install (in the Windows Update interface) as well. So I rebooted my computer (as asked by Windows Update), and it started to install it (in the boot-screen this time). It went to 100% (Lucky I guess ?) but at the last moment, it said "Unable to finish, cancelling changes, do not turn off your computer" (I think the english message is : "Failure configuring updates. Reverting changes. Do not turn off your computer." (Yeah, that was too easy :P)) ; then it rebooted ; then it said the exact same message again (strange uh ?) ; then it rebooted ; then I was finally on my desktop.

This time, I tried with KB3038936.

Does this mean I have to manually download them all and install them one by one ? Will it be the same for the future updates ? Does the Clean boot environment means I have (somehow) a program blocking Windows Update ? What should I do ??

(Thanks again for helping, I know it's longer/harder than usual ...)
