[SOLVED] Another "Windows update KB3000850 fails with error: 0x800700a1"

Taomyn · Dec 8, 2014

Hey there,

I'm experiencing the "Windows update KB3000850 fails with error: 0x800700a1" error and haven't been able to resolve it. I ran the SFCFix program and it logged the following:

Code:

Hello Taomyn and welcome to Sysnative forums :)

Before we get started I would like to have a look at your CBS logs as I have a feeling these files are going to require a different fix.

SFCFix script

Warning: this fix is specific to the user in this thread. No one else should follow these instructions as it may cause more harm than good. If you are after assistance, please start a thread of your own.

Download SFCFix.exe (by niemiro) and save this to your Desktop.
Go to your desktop and right click on the background -> Select New -> Text Document -> Name this file SFCFixScript.txt.
Open up SFCFixScript.txt and copy all of the following text inside the code box below and paste it into SFCFixScript.txt.
Code:
```
FileScan::
MSDTC.LOG
```
Click on File -> Save. Close out of SFCFixScript.txt.
Save any open documents and close all open windows.
On your Desktop, you should see two files: SFCFix.exe and SFCFixScript.txt.
Drag the file SFCFixScript.txt onto the file SFCFix.exe and release it.
SFCFix will now process the script.
Upon completion, a file should be created on your Desktop: SFCFix.txt.
Copy (Ctrl+C) and Paste (Ctrl+V) the contents of this file into your next post for me to analyse please - put [CODE][/CODE] tags around the log to break up the text.

Export CBS folder

Right click on the

button
Click on File Explorer
Double-click on the C: drive, under the Hard Disk Drives category, and then scroll down to, and double click on the Windows folder.
Find and double click on the Logs folder.
Right-click on the CBS folder, and select Copy.
Go back to your Desktop, right-click on it, and select Paste. You should now see a copy of the CBS folder appear on your Desktop called CBS.
Right-click on this new folder, and navigate through Send to, and select Compressed (zipped) folder.
A new file, also called CBS (CBS.zip), but this time with a different icon, will be created.
Attach this to your next post please.

Please Note:: if the file is too big to upload to you next post please upload via Dropbox or One Drive

Thanks

Alex

Are you sure, because it looks the same and the date stamp is still 16/12? SFC /SCANNOW failed again.

Go The Power · Dec 20, 2014

Am I sure I updated the file? Yes I am sure. I even double checked and this file is different.

Are you referring to PM still dated to the 16th? If yes, then that is corrects the link inside the PM has been updated with the correct file.
