I am having this same problem with Windows 10, on update KB3081436 and KB3081438! And no error code! Just sit for 15 minutes watching the computer reboot! This is very frustrating...another Windows experience, with Windows 10!
Error: We couldn’t complete the updates, Undoing changes. Don’t turn off your computer.

2015-08-15T14:22:02+00:00 A way to at least get some codes for the last 10 failure reports would be to use this PowerShell expression starting at this directory:
PS C:\windows\SoftwareDistribution> (Select-String "Fail" "ReportingEvents.log")[-10..-1]
