Windows 10: Windows 10 Error: 0x800f081f -- Resolved via in-place upgrade repair

Hello,


If possible, I would like some help with my Windows 10.


I have been experiencing this issue since the 11/30/2020 update - "2020-11 Cumulative Update for Windows 10 Version 20H2 for x64-based Systems KB4594440"


I went onto a thread about this new update and saw that there would be a new update on December 6th, so I ignored the issue.


Then come December 6th, and I can't install the newer version of the update 12/06/2020 - "2020-12 Cumulative Update for Windows 10 Version 20H2 for x64-based Systems KB4592438"




What I've tried doing:

1. Running scf /scannow

"Windows Resource Protection did not find any integrity violations." -- What I got after running #1


2. DISM /Online /Cleanup-image /Scanhealth

"[==========================100.0%==========================]

No component store corruption detected.

The operation completed successfully." -- What I got after running #2


3. Running the Windows Update Troubleshooter



This did not help me at all. It just told me there was an issue with my windows update, which I already know.


4. Moving the software distribution folder

I forgot where I saw this fix, but I just moved it instead of renaming/deleting it. I reran the update, and it created a new software distribution folder, but the same error occurred. I did not restart my computer after moving the file, but I don't think it was needed.


5. Tried going to the windows update catalog to install manually

Also didn't work; it would just say that the update wasn't installed, nothing else.


I would be really grateful if someone could help me with my issue, as I would like to resolve this problem and not face any issues with Windows as soon as possible.

:)

 

Error 0x800f081f in Win 10


In case you have any doubt, here is the article issued by Microsoft..................

Solution for error 0x800f081f for Windows 8.1 or Windows 8

If you receive Windows Update error 0x800f081f, it means that Windows Update cannot determine the cryptographic service provider, or a file that Windows Update requires (named catalog store) is corrupted.
To resolve this problem, follow these steps:
Step 1: Use System File Checker to repair damaged Windows files
Use the System File Checker tool to repair damaged Windows files, and then run Windows Update again. To do this, follow these steps:

• Open an elevated command prompt.
• Run the following command:
  sfc /scannow
• Try to install update again.

For more information about the System File Checker tool, view Use the System File Checker tool to repair missing or corrupted system files.
Step 2: Run the DISM tool
If the problem continues, use the Deployment Image Servicing and Management (DISM) tool to fix Windows corruption errors. To do this, follow these steps:

• Open an elevated command prompt.
• Run the following command: DISM.exe /Online /Cleanup-image /Restorehealth.

Important When you use the /online option, DISM uses Windows Update to provide the files that are required to fix corruptions. However, if Windows Update service is broken, don’t use the /online option. Instead, use a running Windows installation as the repair source, or use a Windows side-by-side folder from a network share or from a removable media, such as the Windows DVD, as the source of the files. To do this, run the following command instead:
DISM.exe /Online /Cleanup-Image /RestoreHealth /Source:C:\RepairSource\Windows /LimitAccess
Note Replace the C:\RepairSource\Windows placeholder with the location of your repair source. For more information about using the DISM tool to repair Windows, reference Repair a Windows Image.
To learn more about this tool, go to Fix Windows corruption errors by using the DISM or System Update Readiness tool.
