Unable to update Windows Management Framework to version 4.0 (KB2819745)

I'm currently trying to update Windows Management Framework to version 5.1 on a 32-bit Windows 7 Enterprise machine. Since my current Windows Management Framework version is 3.0, I'm unable to update straight to 5.1.

Currently, whenever I attempt to install this update (the file is Windows6.1-KB2819745-x86-MultiPkg from Microsoft.com), the progress bar halts at around 50% (I've let it run for at least 5 hours uninterrupted). Then, when cancelling the update, the window becomes unresponsive and has to be forcibly closed. You can see this in the images below. I have attempted the update a few times, doing system restores and running sfc /scannow before the update, but the result is always the same.

There was a similar thread a few years ago here: [SOLVED] - Unable to install Windows Management Framework 4.0
