    I've tried going to thr site for this windows update problems and after going to the site where you can download the update manager software, install it and it should work fine after that. It has been a long time I did this and I can't really remember the Microsoft webpage that can do this resolve. Sorry for the inconvenience caused to search ther whole web of Microsoft.

    After trying all of the mentioned solution and still having no luck I found a solution.

    The solution for me to this issue was to uninstall sql server 2005. after a bit of research I found that it is not compatible with win8.1 so I removed it and tried again. This time it worked.
