Ok so here are the system specs

After the last update and restart. I am unable to use Windows update.

I have tried the troubleshooting steps but the problem still exists.

SFC returns no problem at all.

Problem occurring for updates KB2936068 and KB2919355

Using their standalone installer isn't working either.

Hi Jaxx,

Microsoft has issued a fix for your error: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2969339

    I have Win8.1 Pro 32 bit but my wuaueng.dll version is 7.9.9600.16422. Does this info about version 7.9.960017092  also apply for the 32 bit version of Windows?

    Jaxx,

    Do you have McAfee installed by any chance?

    If not, do you have any other third party firewall installed? If so, which one?
