Your replies to this thread have confirmed that KB3008923 is, in fact, installed.

If Windows Update continues to offer KB3008923, just hide it ("Don't show me this update again").

If you run a manual check for updates today (i.e., 24 or 25 January 2015) and no updates are offered, ignore the "a Windows update did not install properly" error dated 03 December 2014.

PS: Please do not EDIT a post of yours after someone has replied to it or to a later post in the thread. Thank you.

    that same TXT awry time i do Troubleshoot on win update, that's why i ask, is Is Windows Troubleshooter broken?

    but the thing is i always seem to get windows updates when new come out, despite what the error says & troubleshooter say's

    Problem Reports never bother me with this reports, it does it silently, with out notifying me (its been like this sins first boot), but i have a habit looking in problem reports time to time, so that's how i noticed that error

    i think i did not read about the troubleshooter?

    trouble shooter says that update configurations not properly finishes if i understand this report correctly, can this cause WindowsUpdateFailure2, i mean win to think that update has failed? 

    just few days ago i figured that i should try troubleshoot win update cause of 51 reports of  WindowsUpdateFailure2, that time i had 51, new i have 53
