    Windows Update fails with error 0x800703e6


    Attempting to install KB4023057 or most other updates I've tried fails with error 0x800703e6. The Windows Update troubleshooter detects a problem and tries to repair it, but subsequent updates still do not succeed.scf /scannow fails with "Windows Resource Protection could not start the repair service."dism.exe /Online /Cleanup-image /Restorehealth fails with "Invalid access to memory location."

    Feature Update for Windows 10, Version 1903 – error 0x800703e6

    I hoped by the time this update would get functional on my system:

    Windows 10 Pro

    Version 1809

    Build 17763.253

    Now before the next feature update I search for help here:

    Due to the cbs.log the update ends each time after looping through the UpdateIds with no success to get access to wcp.dll and cbscore.dll. This is the end of the log:

    2019-10-13 18:41:34, Info CBS Trusted Installer is shutting down because: SHUTDOWN_REASON_AUTOSTOP

    2019-10-13 18:41:34, Info CBS Ending TrustedInstaller finalization.

    For the trusted installer in my opinion there should be no problem to get the access. Here are the lines showing the loop copied from the cbs.log:
