Windows 10: KB3093266 killed Windows update service

So yesterday I installed KB3093266, the update went threw and update fine as far as i knew.

After the reboot config system was up. I didnt start to get suspicious till I noticed I never got AC notification about the install, So I reboot notification went threw.

I went into WU went to advance options and notice the whole panel froze and event viewer listed this error

Code: The program SystemSettings.exe version 10.0.10240.16384 stopped interacting with Windows and was closed. To see if more information about the problem is available, check the problem history in the Security and Maintenance control panel.

KB3093266 killed WU service

After I did the reboot after the install Windows Update service stop starting. So i uninstalled that update and it still wont start.

I have ran

WindowsUpdateDiagnostic

Sfc /scan now

dism /online /cleanup-image /restorehealth

I tried doing the this manual https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/kb/971058

This will not register

regsvr32.exe wuaueng.dll

throws out this error "The module "wuaueng.dll" was not loaded but the entry-point dllregisterserver was not found.

Make sure the "wuaueng.dll" is a valid DLL or OCS files and try again "

When I check for updates manual I get (0x80080005)

As a result I can not check or installed updates even I use the stand alone installer it wont install updates cause windows updates service wont start

Check you system clock. If it's wrong, updates won't work.

 

my system clock is correct, so is bios time,

System information>software environment>windows error reporting show 5 hour head of what clock shows and what event viewer event times show.

Not why that would stop the Windows update service from starting though
