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.

    I tried multiple things listed above. I eventually went to Microsoft chat support. They suggested I go here and download the Windows 10 Fall Creators update. This essentially installed a fresh copy of windows. I lost no data, no settings, and it was pretty easy. The download and install will take some time, but it solved all my problems and windows runs faster than it did when I bought the new PC. I have no issues now and my PC is now all up to date. It was definitely worth the time and peace of mind knowing my new PC was now running smoothly!
