Hi there,

Help very much appreciated if possible. Windows Update is showing a group of updates that I can't get installed - it's throwing errors 80246010, 800736B3 and 8007371B. The troubleshooters didn't help and SFC / scannow reported no problems, but DISM is failing out with error 0x800f0906.

Please help!
 
Hi and welcome to Sysnative.

Please zip up and attach your entire C:\windows\logs\CBS folder. To do this you can Right-click on the CBS folder and select Send to...compressed (zipped) folder. It will likely tell you that it needs to create it on the desktop which is fine.

If the file is too big to upload to your next post please upload via a service such as Dropbox or One Drive or SendSpace and just provide the link.
 
Thank you. I need a little more info as I'm having trouble sourcing the corrupted files. Thanks.

1. Download SFCFix.exe and save this to your Desktop.
2. Save any open documents and close all open windows.
3. Double click on SFCFix.exe to open it.
4. Follow all on screen instructions and upon completion, a file should be created on your Desktop named SFCFix.txt.
5. Please post the contents of this log in your next post. Thank you.
