Windows 10 update issue due to error 0x800f0831

Dear,

I'm on Windows 10 1903. Every few days the systems attempts to update itself but finally reverts.

KB4577671 error 0x800f0831

This drives me crazy.

I tried to get help from Microsoft support. During the last session they even deliberate managed to shut down my the computer while they where on remote assistance. End of shift? So far for my confidence I Microsoft support.

I checked a few things

  1. scf /scannow finds no problem
  2. dism /online /cleanup-image /restorehealth results in

[=========                  15.5%                          ]

Error: 4448

The WOF driver encountered a corruption in the compressed file's Resource Table.

The DISM log file can be found at C:\WINDOWS\Logs\DISM\dism.log

I'm not smart enough to understand the log file.

  1. I attempted a full Windows 10 install from media it also failed. Problem during the second boot, whatever that means, and revert to the earlier version as well.

I'm not willing to reinstall this pc from scratch since I have some music editing applications configured and working in a way that I'm really doubt I can ever reconstruct it the same way.

I believe the problem is in the corrupted file encountered by dism. Can anyone help me out?

Kind regards,

Sarah

    This is in my log:

    I'm not seeing a package, and the STORE_CORRUPTION isn't giving me great hope.

    I had this issue too, tried everything, but nothing worked until I checked the task manager, and saw a process called " StopUpdate10 Guard" running. The system user may have installed this unknowingly. This software disabled the Update services, no matter how you try. You need to remove this software first. On my system, it was located in the Program Files > UPDATE folder. I removed it, then enable Windows Update in services.

    After then, I was able to successfully start the program, then update the machine.

    Good luck.

    Hi,

    I have the same issue and error (0x800f0831). Have followed all the steps reported by Sarah, and tried a clean boot, as well as reset Windows Update Components, but still cannot apply this update. I’ve also tried downloaded the update and applying manually from https://www.catalog.update.microsoft.com/, but this also gives the same error ref. Searched the CBS.log and the only ‘store corruption’ references are for Hyper-V and not the expected kB package ID.

    Have you any further advice please?

    Thanks
