MS Updates: KB3002885 & KB3000850 will not install (Error details have shown both 800F0922 & 80073AA2)

After considerable research and exhaustive steps for resolving (sfc /scannow, dism, chkdsk, health, restore health, disabling secure boot, etc...) short of a fresh install, I thought I would download and run the FCFix application from sysnative which started and completed 5 of the 6 steps and the failed to complete with the below message:
-------------------------------------------------
SFCFix version 2.4.1.0 by niemiro.

Finish time: 2015-01-17 08:45:47.957

I found several forums that reference the same information found below in my CBS.log file:

2015-01-05 17:45:34, Info CSI 00000870 [SR] Cannot repair member file[l:18{9}]"MSDTC.LOG" of Microsoft-Windows-COM-DTC-Runtime, Version =6.3.9600.16384, pA = PROCESSOR_ARCHITECTURE_AMD64 (9), Culture neutral,VersionScope = 1 nonSxS, PublicKeyToken = {l:8 b:31bf3856ad364e35}, Typeneutral, TypeName neutral, PublicKey neutral in the store, file cannot bedecompressed

There are a number of downloads in this forum to repair, but instructions stating that they are case note specific. Looking for help.

Thanks.
 
Hello and welcome to the forum :)

Before we get started on a fix can you please run a new scan with SFC /SCANNOW and upload a CBS log?

SFC /SCANNOW
  1. Right click on the
    aa922834-ed43-40f1-8830-d5507badb56c_39.jpg
    button
  2. Click on Command prompt (Admin) => Press Yes on the prompt
  3. Inside the Command Prompt windows copy and paste the following command SFC /SCANNOW
  4. Please wait for this to Finish before continuing with rest of the steps.
Convert CBS.log to CBS.txt
  1. Right click on the
    aa922834-ed43-40f1-8830-d5507badb56c_39.jpg
    button
  2. Click on Run => Inside the run box copy and paste the following command:
    Code: 
    cmd /c copy %windir%\logs\cbs\cbs.log "%userprofile%\Desktop\cbs.txt"
  3. Press Enter
  4. Once this has completed please go to your Desktop and you will find CBS.txt => Please upload CBS.txt to this thread
Please Note:: if the file is too big to upload to you next post please upload via Dropbox or One Drive

Thank you for taking the time to help with this situation. I removed the SFCFix app and reinstalled... below is the result:

Attached are text files of the CBS log & Admin steps taken thus far in addition to several other recommendations found in threads.

View attachment Command Promp Task History.txt

After completing all of the above, the two MS updates KB3002885 & KB3000850 still cannot be installed.

I also noted a difference in the CBS log between the two runs which are below:

As you can the see above this is the issue with SFC and DISM, this is always one of two things, a file corruption or a registry corruption.

Can you please see if SFCFix runs like this:

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.

  1. Download SFCFix.exe (by niemiro) and save this to your Desktop.
  2. Go to your desktop and right click on the background -> Select New -> Text Document -> Name this file SFCFixScript.txt.
  3. 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
  4. Click on File -> Save. Close out of SFCFixScript.txt.
  5. Save any open documents and close all open windows.
  6. On your Desktop, you should see two files: SFCFix.exe and SFCFixScript.txt.
  7. Drag the file SFCFixScript.txt onto the file SFCFix.exe and release it.
  8. SFCFix will now process the script.
  9. Upon completion, a file should be created on your Desktop: SFCFix.txt.
  10. 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.

This is the file that can not be decompressed, the reason being is the file is already decompressed, but SFC is looking for a compressed version. What we will do here is replace the file with the compressed version.

What error message is showing when you are trying to up Windows? is it still the same as before?
 
Thank you for all your help... I ended up reinstalling the operating system and things seem to be working correctly.
