SOLUTION 1:SOLUTION 2:Sometimes Windows Restore aka [[Microsoft System Restore]] can cause problems with Windows Update.  This is especially true on a fresh install of Windows 8.1 when there are many updates waiting to be installed.  Disable Automatic Restore Point creation, which is a feature of System Protection. Go to System Properties by typing "sysdm.cpl" at the command prompt.  Click the "System Protection" tab and disable automatic restore point creation.  After you have all of the updates for Windows installed, then be sure to go back and reenable System Protection auto restore point creation.See: [[Unified_Support_Technician_Guide_to_Utility_Easy_Access_via_the_Windows_Command_Shell#Start_System_Protection_from_a_command_prompt]]
