I then Ran:

C:\WINDOWS\system32>DISM.exe /Online /Cleanup-image /Scanhealth

DISM.exe /Online /Cleanup-image /Scanhealth
and got
Deployment Image Servicing and Management tool
Version: 6.3.9600.16384

Image Version: 6.3.9600.16384

[==========================100.0%==========================]
The component store is repairable.
The operation completed successfully.





Then when I run
DISM.exe /Online /Cleanup-image /Restorehealth

C:\WINDOWS\system32>DISM.exe /Online /Cleanup-image /Restorehealth

Deployment Image Servicing and Management tool
Version: 6.3.9600.16384

Image Version: 6.3.9600.16384

[==========================100.0%==========================]
The restore operation failed. Either the repair source was not found or the comp
onent store cannot be repaired.

Error: 0x800f081f

DISM failed. No operation was performed.
For more information, review the log file.

The DISM log file can be found at C:\WINDOWS\Logs\DISM\dism.log


If you have any tricks to help resolve this it would be great.
It seems there are a bunch of people with this error and allot of people recommend resetting your system.
I really don't want to have to do that.

Thanks in advance for all your help

Hey guys I found a fix finally

if you are seeing error 80073712, please try following steps:

1. Open admin command prompt. (This is how: you can go to search charm, type "cmd" then right click on the Command Prompt and select Run as administrator)

2. Type following command and press enter:

DISM /online /get-packages /format:table | findstr KB2919355

3. You will notice package name similar to this, the amd64 could be different based on OS architecture:

Package_for_KB2919355~31bf3856ad364e35~amd64~~6.3.1.14

4. If you see no output for step# 3 then jump to step# 6, otherwise run following command:

DISM /online /remove-package /packagename:<Name of the package you got from step# 3> the exact command will look like as below:

DISM /online /remove-package /packagename:Package_for_KB2919355~31bf3856ad364e35~amd64~~6.3.1.14

5. Restart your computer.

6. Run following command:

dism /online /cleanup-image /startcomponentcleanup

7. Now install KB2919355 and restart after install.

Here I had downloaded this install directly from here rather than using the automatic downloaded.

Will do Shane,

Also if you can imagine with other updates you can  change this find string to be related to the current update your having issues with.  I have not tested this but in theory should work.
IN the case of this line you would edit KB2919355 to reflect your update
DISM /online /get-packages /format:table | findstr KB2919355

DISM /online /get-packages /format:table | findstr YOUR UPDATE NUMBER HERE

I also made a Video to help people out if they don't know how to run those commands

Thanks :-)

The other user I am helping is having trouble getting that update installed as well. So I am going to have him try this and see if it works for him.
