Hi,

Do you remember which Windows Updates you were trying to install?

I would suggest you to refer to this article and perform the troubleshooting.

Clean Boot: After troubleshooting in a Clean Boot state, make sure to place the computer back to Normal Startup Mode following the same link.

Let us know if it helps. If the issue persists, please reply, we will be glad to assist you further.

    This problem is associated with

    Update for Windows 8.1 for x64-based Systems (KB2933809)   

    It has happened on two x64-based Win 8.1 laptops.

    (one laptop succeeded after a fresh reboot)  

    It has happened on two Server 2012 R2 systems (same KB)

    (These both succeeded after a fresh reboot)

    The failing laptop is a SurfacePro running with all add-ins and AV turned off.

    The most annoying part of this problem is that one cycle of testing takes 10-15 minutes to prep, another 10-15 to fail, and about 30 minutes to roll back.

    This update is CLEARLY flawed.
