[SOLVED] Windows 8.1 Update error code: 800703F1

[jilkka]

After moving my system to a different case, windows update is throwing this error. I have 65 available important updates, as it has been months since this system was online.
I have tried the Windows Troubleshooting steps Microsoft provides, and even the FixIt tool, to no avail.
I've run RegBak, and SFCFix.

Hi jilkka :)

My name is Aura and I'll be assisting you with your issue. Follow the instructions below please.

Replacing the COMPONENTS Hive
Follow the instructions below to replace the COMPONENTS Hive.

• Download the attached COMPONENTS.zip file, and save it on your Desktop;
• Right-click on it, and select Extract all.... Once done, the folder with the COMPONENTS file will open. This will be your new COMPONENTS Hive.
• Navigate to the C:\Windows\System32\config folder;
• In it, find the COMPONENTS file and rename it to COMPONENTS_bak;
  Note: If you receive a message saying that the file is in use, restart your computer and try again.
• Once done, copy the new COMPONENTS file I sent you in the C:\Windows\System32\config folder;
