[SOLVED] Windows Update Problem (Windows 8.1)

I probably should have looked through the instructions before posting a thread, sorry about that. I tried the SFCFix tool, but it didn't seem to do much good. The first time I ran it, it asked for another 15-20 minutes of scanning due to levels of corruption. After waiting for more than an hour...
