Windows Update: error 0x800f081e, So you can fix the error
The error comes when Windows want to install an Update, but not all, of the necessary Update files.
- To fix the error, type "cmd" in the Windows search bar, right-click on the command prompt and select "run As Administrator".
- Now enter the commands "net stop wuauserv""net stop bits" and "net stop cryptsvc" in.
- Rename it with "ren c:\windows\SoftwareDistribution c:\windows\SoftwareDistribution.OLD" the directory "SoftwareDistribution" to. Windows will download the next time you attempt an Update to commit the data again, the missing Update files.
- You finally start it with "net start cryptsvc", "net start bits" and "net start wuauserv" the stopped services again. Now you should be able to Update easily install.
