Do you have the error code for just one update or any of them? Can you post a screen shot of the error?

I got your screen shot and the error is when even checking for updates.

My Windows repair normally fixes that, unless something is ont he system still killing it. Have you ran malwarebytes anti rootkit or combofix.exe on your system yet?
