Hi everyone,
This my first post, I am having a lot of problems dealing with a windows update issue. I am running windows 8 and would like to update to window 8.1, tried throught the store app but his failed giving me the 0x0071a91 error that i have by now read about, below are the steps I have tried out in rough order and also some other steps I tried but am unsure of where they fall in the timeleine. I have attached all the relevant files as listed below to make the post a little bit more streamline hope this is not inconvenient. Hoping to hear from you guys soon. Where I could I listed the source of the solution I tried above the description of the attempt to solve.
Source: Use the System File Checker tool to repair missing or corrupted system files
Run snf /scannow
followed by commamd to export log:
findstr /c:"[SR]" %windir%\Logs\CBS\CBS.log >"%userprofile%\Desktop\sfcdetails.txt"
Found corrupted files and couldn't fix them (sfcdetails.txt attached)

Source2: https://www.sysnative.com/forums/wi...prncacla-inf-corruptions-windows-8-8-1-a.html
Then went on sysnative and found your blog and tried the SFCFix.exe fix and it said it fixed the
corruption that I found in sfcdetails.txt (SFCFix.txt attached).
Source3: https://www.sysnative.com/forums/windows-update/4736-windows-update-forum-posting-instructions.html
followed details on Source3 to export cbs folder (cbs.zip attached)
I then ran a second sfc scan and exported the log as above:
findstr /c:"[SR]" %windir%\Logs\CBS\CBS.log >"%userprofile%\Desktop\sfcdetails2.txt"
Same file still found corrupted (sfcdetails2.txt attached)
Then tried a different approach with dism.exe:
ran Dism /Online /Cleanup-Image /CheckHealth
found that component store is repairable and and the operation completed successfully
ran Disn /online /Cleanup-image /Scanhealth
to log any corruptions that might be there starttime: ~11:44am 20150121
C:\Windows\system32>dism /online /cleanup-image /scanhealth
Deployment Image Servicing and Management tool
Version: 6.2.9200.16384
Image Version: 6.2.9200.16384
[==========================100.0%==========================]
Error: 3017
The requested operation failed. A system reboot is required to roll back changes
made.
The DISM log file can be found at C:\Windows\Logs\DISM\dism.log
dism.log(attached)
Reached out to you guys in the hope that you can help me out.
Some other things I tried but unsure of where they fit in the timeline:
Windows8.1-KB2939087-x64.msu manual installation, but got error saying this is unsuitable for my system..
Ran Dism/ Online /cleanup-image /startcomponentcleanup but it didn't work error 0x8000ffff no operation was performed.
Ran Dism/online/cleanup-image/resotrehealth
command but it got stuck at 20% this was done before exporting the CBS log folder and zipping it and command prompt was closed before the end.
Many thanks for suggestions and help
