Even with a clean install, I still get this error code.

I got this error when upgrading.

What I do is
Step 1 - Perform a clean boot (url : https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/kb/929135)

Step 2 - Rename the SoftwareDistribution folder and catroot. Follow the steps here (http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/...happened/be12b76d-af02-46a1-a00c-4e4af0c29588)

Step 3 - Change Locale and Language Settings to English (United States)

Step 4 - can't remember, will put in when I remember.

Basically after all these 4 steps, upgrade is smooth.
