[Win8.1] Error 8024200D

[Fonzkicha]

I keep having issues when I try and update my computer, I run the troubleshoot and it says it already fixed my two problems and I should restart my PC, everytime I do and try to update I get the same error.

Hello and welcome

Due to the precise nature of your corruption, you will receive help from a user named PeterJ. He's one of our senior trainees here who's in his final phrase of his studies and needs to gain some real world experience in specific areas of Windows Update. This means that he'll be assisting you, but that I will first need to double check and approve his fixes before he posts them to you. If anything this is a good thing for you because it means that you've got at least two of us watching over your thread, but it will unfortunately add a slight delay between each reply. I hope that you understand and can accept the need for us to train up new members in this way in order to carry on doing what we do here, however, if for any reason you object to this setup, I will happily take on your thread myself.

Thank you very much for your understanding. We'll be with you very shortly.
