I have been struggling with this issue for well over a month, It first started with the "2018-02 Cumulative Update for Windows 10 Version 1709 for x64-based Systems (KB4090913)". Now its update Tuesday and this months cumulative update (KB4088776) is doing the exact same thing.

I have tried all 5 of the steps provided by microsofts here:                            (More than once)

https://support.microsoft.com/en-ca/help/910336/windows-update-error-0x80070002-or-0x80070003

Finally, I have done a clean install of windows 10 three times now in the past couple of weeks, to no prevail. 

After each fresh install. the exact same issue.

I am running Windows 10 Pro Education, Version 1709, build 16299.15.

After each install it seems to update no problem, but seems to only be an issue once I reactivate my Windows 10 Pro Activation key.

I gave up weeks ago, and was hoping my problem would simply be solved by the latest update, but that is not the case.

Any help and suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

    Certainly. Click this link: Microsoft Update Catalog

    Select Download to the right of first file offered.

     Click the blue highlighted text as shown here.

    THEN

    Right click the arrow next to the "Save" option and choose "Save as" as shown here:

    And save it to your Desktop.  Then double click the Strand Alone Installer to run it once it has fully downloaded.

    I have the same problem and really don't understand why MS haven't done anything to respond to this string!

    Because MS generally responds when you use your "Get Help" app. Not when you come here.

    Try disabling & re-enabling Windows Update in "services.msc".
