Windows Update Failed - WindowsUpdate_80071A90 or 80071A90

I've tried microsoft fix it, i've tried disabling everything in startup, i've disabled malaware bytes and spybot. The system is completely clean of virsu's and spyware!. Also every single update has always installed until today!

Any ideas?

Yes very daft , just trying a manual install read some reports on windows 7 related forums that some of the updates are failing to authenticate

Ok that didn't work :/

Going to try sfc /scannow and to be honest these updates are not that important reading the fix logs but would be nice to have them installed. Not sure why it's causing such grief. Hardly anything is actually running on startup

Fixed it, thanks to a bit more google research...

A number of the " security updates " wont install together hence failing, but by doing the install one by one and restarting each time they are installing perfectly. Stupid micro****

Thanks anyway guys it's now working

Agreed!
