Windows 8.1 update KB3000850 error 800700a1

lemelecode · Oct 5, 2015

Hi, I'm getting error 0x800700a1 when trying to update windows with KB3000850.
I ran the SFC /SCANNOW command via the Administrative Command Prompt. This is what I get from the report:

I therefore ran the SFCFix utility and got this report:

I don't see the results of the DISM scan in the CBS log.

Try running the command again and then upload the CBS log when DISM indicates it has completed :)
