Rename the folder windows\system32\catroot2 and reboot. You can then
delete the renamed folder - a new one will have been made which the
service can handle

Then get - only - Q817287 and install it, which should now be OK. It
is itself the cure; you should then be able to carry on with other
updates, and the problem will not recur
