Windows Update error 80073712

Security token missing? That's a new one on me!
Try uploading the files to a fileshare site (OneDrive or DropBox preferably) - then post a link to them in your reply.

It seems the 'security Token' error may have been due to a long upload time - which wouldn't be too surprising in view of the file's size (20MB)
There's no errors in the CBS.log file or CheckSUR. (there were errors in a few ancient runs of CheckSUR - have you done a repair install at some point?)
I see you're running Comodo Firewall as well as their AV? (I'm not a fan of either, but they don't often cause too many problems - and those tend not to be of this sort)

The errors I do see revolve around this sort of thing...

This looks as if it's either a permissions problem on a registry key, or corruption of the registry key.

Please open an Elevated Command Prompt, and run the following commands:

Code:

REG QUERY "HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\SideBySide\Winners\amd64_microsoft-windows-w..lient-aux.resources_31bf3856ad364e35_en-us_cf02fcf53904b0b" /S
REG QUERY "HKLM\COMPONENTS\DerivedData\VersionedIndex\6.1.7601.17592

.

post the results.

Here are some instructions to make lifeeasier :)

1) To open anElevated Command Prompt Window (the ECP window), click on Start, All Programs,Accessories – then right-click on Command Prompt, and select Run asAdministrator. Accept the UAC prompt.

2) To run thecommands easier, highlight the block of commands, and right-click on thehighlight – select Copy. In the CP Window, click on the black/white icon at topleft – select Paste. The commands will run but may not complete the lastcommand, so hit the Enter Key once.

3) To copy theresults... click on the Black/White icon in the top left, and select Edit...'Select All', and hit the Enter key - then use Ctrl+V or r-click+Paste to pasteit into your response.

DUH?
That is definitely a new one on me!!

I need to do some research - back when/if I make sense out of it. :)

DUH?= expression of confusion! :)
In this case, probably alcohol-induced as what I was commenting on was actually fairly simply explained.
For some reason when posting the commands I posted into the Code box, one line got split into two.

Let's try that again...

Code:

REG LOAD HKLM\COMPONENTS C:\Windows\System32\config\COMPONENTS
REG QUERY "HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\SideBySide\Winners\amd64_microsoft-windows-w..lient-aux.resources_31bf3856ad364e35_en-us_cf02fcf53904b0b" /S
REG QUERY "HKLM\COMPONENTS\DerivedData\VersionedIndex\6.1.7601.17592 (win7sp1_gdr.11408-1631)\ComponentFamilies\amd64_microsoft-windows-w..lient-aux.resources_31bf3856ad364e35_7.6.7600.256_en-us_d596e12800d25b42" /s
 
.

run those commands and post the results

I think I'll turn chicken at this point - and do things the hard way

I need to have alook at your COMPONENTS registry hive



Please copy theC:\Windows\System32\config\COMPONENTS file (no extension) to your desktop andthen compress it - upload the compressed file to your favoured fileshare site(preferably Dropbox or OneDrive) and post a link.
