KB3136000 keeps wanting to be installed

Hi and welcome to SevenForums,

Symptoms


When you try to install update 3135996 or 3136000, the installation process fails. Additionally, you receive the following error message:

A certificate chain could not be built to a trusted root authority.

Cause


This issue occurs when you operate in an environment that's disconnected from the Internet or that has a firewall that blocks content from the following URL:

403 - Forbidden: Access is denied.

Code:

403 - Forbidden: Access is denied.

The resolutions list is below the quoted part I posted from the link.

Thanks but the installation processes doesn't fail and I am able to to connect to:
403 - Forbidden: Access is denied. (Link to URL automatically gets displayed as 403 on this forum)
Which redirects me to:
http://arrcache.download.windowsupda...dowsupdate.com

I can also download cab files from that same folder:
http://ctldl.windowsupdate.com/msdow...wedcertstl.cab
http://ctldl.windowsupdate.com/msdow...uthrootstl.cab

I even reinstalled the update with my firewall and antivirus disabled which had no affect.

please turn off the update driver option, its having a prob with one.
might correct the problem.

Carried out the instructions here if that's what you meant:
https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/kb/2500967

Unfortunately that change didn't help.

torchwood said:

When you deleted the folder did you stop windowsupdates service if not that would create more issues.

Yes I stopped the service before I deleted the folder.

The best I can do at the moment is to hide the update but I would like to try and get to the bottom of it.

Hi,

I have no idea what the real problem is
