Hi guys,

we are running into issues where installing the Cumulative Windows Updates are failing.

The error code: 0x80073701

Any help on repairing it would be greatly appreciated!

After trying to repair the server be myself, i tried to repair the server with the SFCfix.exe tool. Also this tool could not repair the server. I uploaded the SFCfix.exe log and the CSB folder in the attachment.
Can you guys help me out with this problem?

I hope to here from you soon.

Kind Regards,

It seems that the above subkeys may be corrupt, I'm going to need to install a VM with the same CU installed as you do. I'll respond back with a fix after I've set one up.

Could you please open an elevated command prompt and then enter the following command:

I'm going to assume that DISM still returns no errors so let's get a ProcMon trace while attempting to update.

Capture Process Monitor Trace
1. Download and run Process Monitor. Leave this running while you perform the next steps.
2. Try updating the system just like you have in the past.
3. Stop Process Monitor as soon as it fails. You can simply do this by clicking the square icon on the toolbar as shown below.

4. Select the File menu...Save... and save the file to your desktop. This is likely the default location. The name (unless changed) will be LogFile.PML. This is fine.
5. Zip up and provide the link to the LogFile.PML file as well as your CBS.log Examples of services to upload to are Dropbox or OneDrive or WeTransfer.
