A month ago, I installed KB3000850. Because I had Avast, it bricked my system and I was able to System restore out of that, delete avast and use my system. However after system restore, I can no longer install KB3000850 again - it fails every time with the 800700A1 error code. I tried to follow some of the local threads (my problem is super similar), but since there are some minor differences, I don't wanna take any chances:

I tried to run "sfc /scannow" with the following output:
Code:

That is fine, because the file is supposed to be compressed.

Hi Paya,

Strange, SFCFix failed to copy the file. I had a look at the zip file I sent you but I could not work why SFC failed here.

I have attached a another copy of the zip file to this, can you please repeat the process?

Hi, thanks again for helping me out :-) The output is (same as before, only timestamps and hash is different):

I am little confused though, I checked both zip files and they contain binary-identical files, only the .zip archive is a little different. Not sure if that's intentional, but probably is lol. Anyway if the code is failing, maybe I can do something about the MSDTC.log myself, take ownership, reboot to live CD or something like that.
 
Thank you guys so much, it seems this one finally worked:

Can I now run "SFC /SCANNOW" and try to install KB3000850 to see if the issue is fixed? Or are there any further steps necessary?
 
Everything seems fine, I have finally successfully installed the KB, and SFC says everything is ok. Thank you guys!!!
