KB2919355 (Windows 8.1 Update) Fails (800f0092 and 80073712) on Windows 8.1 Pro w Media Center

I am running Windows 8.1 Pro with Media Center. It is a 64-bit edition.

I downloaded the Windows 8.1 Update from MSDN. Installed it on two machines with no problems.

Update is a series of 6 updates packed in a single zip file. Unzipped the files. Went to install the first recommended update (KB2919442). Dialog box indicated it was already installed.

Went to install the second update (KB2919355). It ran through the dialogs and said installation completed. It indicated that a reboot was necessary. Rebooted. It began to install the update after the reboot. Got about 60% of the way through, then said it couldn't complete. Error message 800F0092.

Had successfully installed on two other machines, one a VM and one a Samsung tablet. Only difference is this computer is 1) Media Center, and 2) was running WebRoot antimalware agent.

Uninstalled WebRoot.

Retried the install. Got about 98% through the dialog (green progress bar almost at 100%), went it stopped and the dialog said Update Failed.

Error message in the update history is now 80073712.

    Please note that's 64bit only

    To make that work on 32bit do:

    Also note AMD does not mean this only works on AMD chipsets.  AMD invented the 64bit platform, so even if you are running 64bit intel, that amd64 notation is still valid.

    sfc /scannow

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

    DISM /online /remove-dism /online /remove-package /packagename:Package_for_KB2919355~31bf3856ad364e35~x86~~6.3.1

    DISM /Online /Cleanup-Image /ScanHealth

    DISM /Online /Cleanup-Image /RestoreHealth

    DISM /online /cleanup-image /startcomponentcleanup /resetbase

    cleanmgr.exe

    @echo off

    Echo Cleanup complete

    pause

    Will this install on WIndows 8.1 Pro with Media Center.

    Have 64-bit updates and 64-bit Media Center, but when you try to update, get the message that this update isn't for this version?

    Is that correct?

    Is there a separate version for Media center, cause these files installed on other 64-bit WIndows Pro (without media center).

    May I ask where you got the update from since it is not schedule for release until April 8th?

    Please note, there are 32 and 64 bit variants of KB2919442.

    If you got it from a third party site, you might have downloaded the wrong.

    If you downloaded it from MSDN/TechNet, you downloaded the wrong architecture as part of the zip file.

    I am an MSDN subscriber and downloaded from MSDN.

    All my systems run 64-bit, have the 64-bit files.

    Installed correctly on VM and Samsung tablet, neither of which is Media Center (addon).

    Will not install on either of 2 DELLs that are W81 Pro with Media Center.
