Replace the SCHEMA.DAT file

Download the attached Schema.zip file and save it to your desktop, right-click on it and select Extract all.
Navigate to C:\Windows\System32\SMI\Store\Machine and rename the SCHEMA.DAT file to SCHEMA.old
Copy the SCHEMA.DAT file on your desktop into the above directory.

Afterwards reboot the server and attempt to update again. If it fails attach a new copy of the CBS logs.

I made the modification but I cannot restart today because it is a production server.
However, I launched Windows Update and I no longer get any error messages.
I'll see on Monday if everything is ok.
the cbs.log is attached
Thank you very much, I will keep you informed
