error 800f081f unable to update Windows 7 (SOLVED)

(1/5) > >>

Curtis:
I have read through the previous post regarding 800f081f and have attempted all of the suggested solutions including copying and pasting at the cmd.  All without success.  I have Win 7 on a Lenovo Thinkpad Edge.  The last update I see listed is dated 5/25/16.  When I attempt to update windows the "searching for updates" just keeps running with no results even though downloads are available at Microsoft.
I've run the Tweak repairs including the Pre-scan and I'll attach those.  I've also attempted to run wu10.diacab, however, it can't start and I then get the error 80070002 "context restricted."  The same error number pops up when I try to run windows troubleshooter "windows update diagnostic."
I've downloaded and run "System Readiness Tool" and subsequently "windows update standalone installer"  all to no avail.
Whether its related or not I also get an error on startup indicating that the Lenovo Service Bridge file could not be located.  See attached log.
There are no viruses or malware detected.  No errors are evident when I use sfc/scannow or ckdisk (actually I now see some errors so I'll fix them).
Please help.
Curtis

This article may help with that "Bridge" error message https://forums.lenovo.com/t5/ThinkPad-P-and-W-Series-Mobile/W520-Could-not-find-file-Lenovo-Service-Bridge-appref-ms/td-p/2169908

See what happens after that.

Curtis:
Thanks.  Yes, that eliminated the Lenovo error message.  No change in windows update search, however.

Boggin:
While it may not fix your update problems (I haven't read any of its linked articles), can you see if you can download the Roll up update KB3161608 - https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/kb/3161608

Curtis:
This update downloaded just fine.  As you guessed, no change in being able to download regularly.
