We have a 2012 R2 server that is failing to update: Code 800703F1. It got stuck on the last Adobe Flash security update KB4561600, supposedly, and hasn't processed any new updates since.
I've run chkdisk /r on the system in question. It did have an index that was off at one point (6 monts ago, I believe) but that was resolved.
I've run sfc /scannow with the result "Windows Resource Protection could not perform the requested operation"
Dism /Online /Cleanup-Image /CheckHealth indicates "No component store corruption detected."
Dism /Online /Cleanup-Image /RestoreHealth results in "Error 1009, the configuration database is corrupt."
DISM log error is as follows: DISM.EXE: DISM Package Manager processed the command line but failed. HRESULT=800703F1
My junior technician deleted the SoftwareDistribution folder rather than renaming it in the process he followed to troubleshoot the issue initially. He also ran Adobe Flash's updated full installer as recommended by Adobe.
Running SFCFix resulted in the following:
