He was able to get it sorted out!  All the updates installed flawlessly

Thank you very much for pointing me in the right direction.  Could not have done it without you!

I've spent hours reading through forums and tutorials for this issue and never once came across that site.

Thanks again!

Summary:
Seconds executed: 188
 Found 13 errors
  CBS Watchlist Component Missing Total count: 13


Here the current contents of my checksur.log

Its not probably the same as what the one was for him because i had tried a few more things since the last time he replied.  Ran the SURT a few more times.  Ran the windows repair tool again.

The bright side is that the Pre-scan now shows i have no missing package files, but the checksur.log itself still shows some issues.

Feels like its so close to being fixed,  but its probably just because 13 errors is much better then 1781!

Thanks for keeping up with it!

My helper on the other forum hasnt responded in awhile, but ill wait a little longer before i send him a PM.

I tried to uninstall that kb2952664, but it wont allow it.  Just says "An error has occurred.  Not all updates were successfully uninstalled."

I had also read that somewhere.

I have ran the update utility for my motherboard and Intels update utility from their website. (Intel® Chipset Device Software (INF Update Utility))

Both say that everything is up to date.  Not sure if there is a better way of doing chipset driver updates.  Not very familiar with it.

Thanks again for your help!

Have you run the update troubleshooter to see what that reports ?

Sometimes trying the updates in a clean boot can resolve where there's a conflict either in your start up menu items or the non-Microsoft services.

I have run this program a few times.  It always returns the same result.  (Says it fixes many things and has 1 error 0x80070490)

I've read through a few articles about how to fix that error and its how i found this forum!

I'm sorry I did not notice that there was a C: there when i copied it.

I do have a C: drive but it does not have my windows installation on it.

Re-ran the SFC scan and re-did the command with F: in place.

Returns error FINDSTR: Cannot read file list from [SR]

When i run the SFC scan it reports no integrity issues (attached is the log from the extra command).

I ran CCleaner and it cleaned out the logs in the CBS folder and now its down to under 30 mb.  I have the previous CBS folder which is  24GB saved in case its useful somehow.

Ill patiently wait for a reply from the other site.  No issues.  Its been 2 weeks with this problem and i play with it a little bit each day trying something new.

Thanks again for your help!

I followed as far as i could with his instructions until it says not to.

I also took your advice and made a post on their forum as well.  Thanks!

Link to post https://www.sysnative.com/forums/windows-update/24623-windows-update-error-80073701-a.html#post207661

Hope this can be resolved.  Kind of worried that more of the updates that come down the line will also fail to install because of these errors.

I also got that optional update as well.  Just showed up yesterday.  It also fails to install with the same error.

I am using Webroot SecureAnywhere 9.0.  I've tried disabling it and everything else to install the update, but no change.

As far as the Missing Package Cleanup.  It does have all the files being on the F:\ when it shows them. (attached image)

It runs for a very long time, but completes with no errors reported.  After a reboot and a re-scan they still show up as missing.

Edit:  i checked that Kb article and navigated to that registry key.  The key is there for me. (cadca5fe-87d3-4b96-b7fb-a231484277cc)

Thank you for replying!

Does it make a difference that i do not have an AMD processor?

I have an I7-4790k.  My understanding was that this update was supposed to resolve security issues with Intel processors.

I ran those commands through (changed the C:\ to F:\ because my windows install is on the F drive, hope thats ok if not i can run them again)

Ran pre-scan again.  Same result

Attached new log.

General Computer Support / [SOLVED] Windows update error 80073701

« on: January 20, 2018, 07:21:58 pm »

First time using this forum.  Appreciate any help i can get!

Running Windows 7 Professional 6.1.7601.23934 64bit SP1

I have been getting a windows update error for the past 2 weeks while trying to install KB4056894 update.  Ill list off all the things ive tried so far to get this update to install and hopefully some one will have a better idea of what the problem is.

I have tried installing the standalone version of the KB4056894 (returns a failed error but no code)

I have tried the WindowsUpdate.diagcab tool from Windows website (which returns an error 0x80070490)

I have also tried the Update Readiness Tool as well.  Which says it installs properly with no errors.

I downloaded the Windows Repair Tool v4 from your website and tried the repair windows update preset. (safemode as well) No change.  Update still fails to install.

The pre-scan log shows that i am missing 1781 package files. (seems like a lot...)  Which is probably the issue. (attached the prescan log)

I tried taking the KB numbers from the log and downloading each one individually and installing them, but when i try to they say  "The update is not applicable to your computer"

So i bought a license to the program to give the "missing pack files - reg cleanup" a try and see if it would help.  The scan shows all the missing files and they are all checked missing, but after running it (safemode) the files still show up as missing.

I've also tried a SFC scan as well which returned no issues.

I would like to not have to clean install to fix this or update to windows 10 so any help would be appreciated.

Thanks!
