Greetings,

I have a virtual server with Microsoft Windows Server 2008 R2 installed.
Some updates are not getting installed. Some are installed but some aren´t . The ones that failed, fail after the reboot with the message: Failure Configuring Windows Updates - Reverting changes.
After a while it reboots automatically and server comes back normal on login screen.
I have done all the steps you provided here on other issues, Microsoft recommendations, ran Microsoft Fixit, the Windows Update reset script from Technet blog, tried installing them manually and using DISM command, checkdisk no bad blocks, checksur no errors found, SFC /SCANNOW no errors found, SFCFix no errors found etc.
I have the CBS logs of that time.

Hello and welcome!

Step#1 - FRST Scan

1. Please download Farbar Recovery Scan Tool and save it to your Desktop.
Note: You need to run the 64-bit Version so please ensure you download that one.
2. Right-click FRST64.exe and click Run as Administrator to run it as administrator. When the tool opens, click Yes to disclaimer.
3. Please ensure you place a check mark in the Addition.txt check box at the bottom of the form before running (if not already checked).
4. Press Scan button.
5. It will produce a log called FRST.txt in the same directory the tool is run from (which should now be the desktop)
6. Please attach the log back here.
7. Another log (Addition.txt - also located in the same directory as FRST64.exe) will be generated Please also attach that along with the FRST.txt in your reply.
 
Hi,

Appreciated your swift response, attached are the two text file from the scan.

Regards,

Hi,

I did removed the Sophos already and try to install single update. No luck.
 
Thanks for the information.

Are you using IIS? Is the feature enabled? If you are not using it and it is enabled, please disable it and retry updates.

Did you try Clean Boot? https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/help/929135/how-to-perform-a-clean-boot-in-windows

If the update still fails, after trying all of these steps, please provide fresh CBS.log and C:\Windows\Inf\setupapi.dev.log.

Is it an option to remove Zabbix Agent as a test?
 
SFCFix Script

Warning: this fix is specific to the user in this thread. No one else should follow these instructions as it may cause more harm than good. If you are after assistance, please start a thread of your own.


  1. Download SFCFix.exe (by niemiro) and save this to your Desktop.
  2. Download the file below, SFCFix.zip, and save this to your Desktop. Ensure that this file is named SFCFix.zip - do not rename it.
  3. Save any open documents and close all open windows.
  4. On your Desktop, you should see two files: SFCFix.exe and SFCFix.zip.
  5. Drag the file SFCFix.zip onto the file SFCFix.exe and release it.
  6. SFCFix will now process the script.
  7. Upon completion, a file should be created on your Desktop: SFCFix.txt.
  8. Copy (Ctrl+C) and Paste (Ctrl+V) the contents of this file into your next post for me to analyse please - put [CODE][/CODE] tags around the log to break up the text.

Hi!

This will reboot the Server, so make sure you run this after hours:

Step#1 - FRST Fix
NOTICE: This script was written specifically for this user, for use on that particular machine. Running this on another machine may cause damage to your operating system
1. Please download Farbar Recovery Scan Tool and save it to your Desktop.
Note: You need to run the 64-bit Version so please ensure you download that one.
2. Download the attached fixlist.txt and save it to the Desktop.
Note. It's important that both files, FRST64 and fixlist.txt are in the same location or the fix will not work (in this case...the desktop).
3. Run FRST64 by Right-Clicking on the file and choosing Run as administrator.
4. Press the Fix button just once and wait. If for some reason the tool needs a restart, please make sure you let the system restart normally. After that let the tool complete its run.
5. When finished FRST64 will generate a log on the Desktop (Fixlog.txt). Please post the contents of it in your reply.
