    I asked with reason about the driver which were used from MS or Manufacturer! I had once an Update error and solved that changing the MB's Driver to Manufacturer Drivers! And that was for the KB2796096 Update!! After that, I also changed on all installations the drivers to Manufacturer and didn't have any more problems with Updates.

    Download manually & then install... Before install clear all logs to get better detail...

    Doubt Component-Based Servicing (CBS) manifest is corrupted.

    solution:
    in-place Upgrade

    backup you files.

    Yes, I experienced this too! I tried to stop it and run it again and finally discovered it was actually downloading.

    I can say this is true as I was downloading updates before activating Windows.
