Solved Window Update failing error code 800736B3

[eaglewing]

Hi.
I have a problem with Windows Update. It continues to fail with error code 800736B3. I have tried the update troubleshooter for Windows, I have ran scannow, I also have installed the update readiness tool and hotfix.
Still the updates fail.
I would greatly appreciate any help with this.
I have included the CBS flolder contents.
Thank you in advance for any insight!!!!!:sarc:

CheckSUR shows this...

I'll post a fix for it later - I have to get to work now

I've uploaded a file - ewgaa.zip - to my OneDrive at Noel's OneDrive
Please download and save it.
Right-click on the downloaded file, and select Extract all…
Extract to the default location - which will create a new folder ewgaa in the same place.
Open this folder - there should be one folder inside it (Manifests, )

Copy the content of the manifests folder (.manifest files) into this folder:

C:\Windows\Temp\CheckSur\Winsxs\Manifests

Now run the CheckSUR tool again (it may take a while)

Post the new CheckSUR.log file, and the CheckSUR.persist.log file.

Thank you Noel! When you say run the CheckSUR tool. What is that? The update readiness tool? How do i run it?
Thanks again!!

 

[NoelDP]

CheckSUR = Check System Update Readiness

Just double-click on the downloaded file again - it'll go through the same procedure as last time, and hopefully fix the problems

 

[eaglewing]

Fixed!

Noel, you are a genius!! It worked and all of my updates installed perfectly.
I can't thank you enough!
Is there a way to give you praise or commendations within the site?
I really appreciate your help!
Thank you!

Noel, can you put the ewgaa.zip file in your drive again. I have the same problem and would like to try the fix you suggested. Thanks.

Hey Noel, could you upload ewgaa.zip file again? I'm having the same problem.

I can guarantee that your problem is NOT the same!

Please start a NEW THREAD of your own, and post your own problem...

Please follow the Windows Update Posting Instructions and post the requested data (in your new thread)
If the file is too large (8MB compressed), remove the older CBSPersist cab files until the final file is below the limit - you can always post them separately after zipping them. (the forum doesn't allow the upload of bare CBA files, for a number of reasons)
