[SOLVED] 2018-09 Security Monthly Quality Rollup for Windows 7 for x64-based Systems Fails

[RECONBunny25]

I saw in a previous thread someone helped out with this by posting their CBS Log. First let me say this has been failing since February 2nd this year. So almost a whole year long of this crap.

My CBS log is 59MB and the site uploader denied it so I am uploading 3rd party.

This solved my problem. The September Roll-up installed successfully. Now I can shutdown windows and not have an "update" every single night that does nothing. Thank you very much!

In a nutshell what was causing this issue?

Great!
Some files were missing. I provided the update that contained them and that allowed the update to go through.
