Hello,
After upgrading from Windows 8 to 8.1, I have a problem with Windows Update.
Windows Update Solution problem said:
Windows Update database error 0x80070490
Windows Update components must be repaired

Following suggestions encountered in Microsoft forums I did:

DISM.exe /Online /Cleanup-image /Scanhealth ... successful
DISM.exe /Online /Cleanup-image /Restorehealth ... resulting with error x8002421
DISM.exe /Online /Cleanup-image /Startcomponentcleanup ... successfull

SFC /SCANNOW ... detecting damaged files and failing to repair all of them.


As there were messages in CBS.log messages "Cannot repair ... CNBJ2530.DPB", I executed SFCFix.exe



Now
Windows Update database error 0x80070490 appears corrected but Windows Update components are not corrected, and I Windows Update remains ineffective.

SCFFix.txt results:
SFCFix version 2.4.5.0 by niemiro.
Start time: 2015-09-01 10:19:53.413
Microsoft Windows 8.1 Update 3 - amd64
Not using a script file.




AutoAnalysis::

My CBS log files are too large to attach CBS.zip directly.

Thanks for any help.

System File Checker (SFC)
Follow the instructions below to run a SFC scan on your system and to provide the CBS log in your next reply;
  • On Windows Vista & 7, click on the Windows Start Menu, then enter cmd in the search box, right-click on the cmd icon and select
    Spcusrh.png
    Run as Administrator
  • On Windows 8, drag your cursor in the bottom-left corner, and right-click on the metro menu preview, then select Command Prompt (Admin);
  • On Windows 8.1, right click on the Windows logo in the bottom-left corner and select Command Prompt (Admin);
  • Enter the command below and press on Enter;
    Code: 
    sfc /scannow
    Note: There's a space between "sfc" and "/scannow";
  • Once the scan is complete, enter the command below and press on Enter
    Code: 
    copy %windir%\logs\cbs\cbs.log "%userprofile%\Desktop\cbs.txt"
  • A file called cbs.txt will have appeared on your Desktop. Upload the file on Dropbox, Google Drive or OneDrive and post the download URL for it here;
Note: Please note that the CBS.log is volatile, which means that if you don't upload it after the SFC scan is completed, it won't contains the information from the scan anymore. So archive it and upload it as soon as you can.
 
It seems that I do not have access to that file on OneDrive. However, it may be because I'm at work and the connection doesn't allow me to access OneDrive files. Is it possible to upload it on Google Drive or Dropbox instead?
 
Alright, follow the instructions below please.

Alright, now let's run a SFC scan to see if the replacement is accepted.

The SFC scan returned a clean CBS.log. The corrupt file was successfully replaced. Was there anything else? :)
 
Alright, let's run DISM and see if there's anything interesting in its logs.

DISM - Fixing Component Store Corruption
Follow the instructions below to run a DISM scan on your system:
  • On Windows 8, drag your cursor in the bottom-left corner, and right-click on the metro menu preview, then select Command Prompt (Admin);
  • On Windows 8.1, right click on the Windows logo in the bottom-left corner and select Command Prompt (Admin);
  • Enter the command DISM /Online /Cleanup-Image /RestoreHealth and press on Enter;
  • Let the scan run until the end (100%);
  • Copy the C:\Windows\Logs\DISM folder and C:\Windows\Logs\CBS\CBS.log file on your Desktop, then right-click on it, go to Send to... and select Compressed .zip archive;
  • Upload the file on Dropbox, Google Drive or OneDrive and post the download URL for it here;
Note: Please note that the CBS.log is volatile, which means that if you don't upload it after the DISM scan is completed, it won't contains the information from the scan anymore. So archive it and upload it as soon as you can.
 
Looks like DISM didn't have to repair anything, hence the successful message.

Alright, let me know if the Windows Update works or not. If it does, I'll mark this thread as solved :)
 
Unfortunately not.
The Windows Update reparation tool still gives uncorrected errors:
Windows Update database error 0x80070490
Components must be repaired
 
Is this when you search for updates, or when you try to install updates?
 
I have this resulting message when I execute the System and Security Tool to search and resolve problems on Windows Update.
The functional problem of Windows Update is to install update, the search is OK
 
Do you have any updates to install right now?
 
Precision: When I try to execute Windows Update, it detects that there are updates to install, but fails to upload them, remaining blocked in 0 ko, 0% uploaded
 
Right now, I am executing it: the uploading of the 8 updates remains blocked without any evolution. Do you want a screen copy ( i have a French version of Windows) ?
