Error 1603 when trying to install Microsoft Mouse & Keyboard Center

I've searched all over the internet to try to find a solution for this Error 1603 that I am getting when I am trying to install Microsoft Mouse & Keyboard Center. I did a recent in place upgrade for Windows 10 (Anniversary edition) and I was sure that this program was already installed.

The driver for the mouse works fine and is listed in Device Manager but I would like to have this software as it can enable you to assign certain functions for you mouse keys for specific apps. It's a Microsoft Wireless Mobile Mouse 3500 and the software for it is MouseKeyboardCenter_64bit_ENG_2.8.106

There is a Microsoft Program troubleshooter that I ran that didn't help one bit. Then I read in the Microsoft forums a suggestion of trying to install it by doing a clean boot, but that didn't work either. This Error 1603 seems to be a common problem but I have yet to find a solution to it.

I'm attaching a screenshot of the error message.



On top of that Windows Update is trying to install some updates for the mouse (and keyboard even though it's only a mouse that I have) and it is giving me error messages as well (see screenshot)

I couldn't find any info online for the error message it gives which is Error 0x800705b3.

Has anyone else encountered a similar issue and if so, what did you do to resolve it?

Error 1603 when installing driver for Microsoft 850 keyboard/mouse

I have a 64-bit i7 Dell Notebook and am running on Windows 10. I am trying to install the driver for a Microsoft "Wireless 850 Desktop" keyboard/mouse combo. The install keeps failing and I get a box come up saying:

"Microsoft Mouse and Keyboard Centre - Setup must close because a error occurred. Verify that you computer meets the system requirements on the product packaging. Restart your computer and try running Setup again. If this
error happens again, see Help for customer support options (Error code 1603)."

My system is apparently compatible and I've done all that has been suggested without any success. Ironically I also have a wireless Logitech keyboard/mouse combo too and that works perfectly, but I want the Microsoft 850 to work properly too. What steps
do I need to go though to fix the problem once and for all? Thanks.
