Keep in mind that this can take up to 15 minutes, so don&#8217;t bother. Once the scan is complete, check if the problem is solved.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>If an SFC scan doesn&#8217;t fix the problem, or if you can&#8217;t run an SFC scan at all, you might want to try using a DISM scan.<\/p>\n<p>To do so, just follow these steps:<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>Right-click Start and run Command Prompt (Admin).<\/li>\n<li>At the command line type the following command:<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>DISM.exe \/Online \/Cleanup-image \/Restorehealth<\/p>\n<p>If the update service is not available, you can use the second method. Insert the USB\/DVD media with the system installation files and type (copy-paste) the following command:<\/p>\n<p>DISM.exe \/Online \/Cleanup-Image \/RestoreHealth \/Source:C:RepairSourceWindows \/LimitAccess<\/p>\n<p>Don&#8217;t forget to change C:RepairSource with your repair source location.<\/p>\n<p>Once the process is complete, restart your PC and try updating again.<\/p>\n<p>Once the DISM scan is complete, check if the problem is still there.<\/p>\n<p>If the problem persists, or if you are unable to complete the SFC scan, make sure to repeat it now and check if that solves the problem.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"3_Install_updates_manually\"><\/span><strong>3. Install updates manually<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<ol>\n<li>First, you need to visit Microsoft&#8217;s Update History website for the update number. (You can easily compare update history and information on the website to find missing updates.)<\/li>\n<li>After you find the updated code, it should start with KB and followed by a string of numbers, you need to visit the Microsoft Update Catalog page.<\/li>\n<li>Enter the update code in the search field and a list of results will appear. (Keep in mind that the list will show you updates for different architectures, so make sure to choose the one that fits your system architecture.)<\/li>\n<li>Once you have downloaded the update, simply run the setup file to install it. (Keep in mind that this process will not fix the error, instead, it will allow you to avoid it and download the update.)<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"4_Restart_the_Windows_Update_component\"><\/span><strong>4. Restart the Windows Update component<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<ol>\n<li>Start Command Prompt as administrator.<\/li>\n<li>When Command Prompt starts, type the following commands, pressing Enter after each one:<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>Net Stop bits<br \/>\nNet Stop wuauserv<br \/>\nNet Stop appidsvc<br \/>\nNet Stop cryptsvc<br \/>\nRen %systemroot%SoftwareDistribution SoftwareDistribution.bak<br \/>\nRen %systemroot%system32catroot2 catroot2.bak<br \/>\nNet Start bits<br \/>\nNet Start wuauserv<br \/>\nNet Start appidsvc<br \/>\nNet Start cryptsvc<\/p>\n<p>After running the command, check if the problem is solved.<\/p>\n<p>If you don&#8217;t want to run these commands manually, we wrote a quick guide on how to create a Windows Update reset script, so be sure to check it out and find out how to make this process automatic.<\/p>\n<p>As you know, Windows Update depends on certain services to function properly, and if there is a problem with any of the services, error 0X800f081f is likely to occur.<\/p>\n<p>But the steps above will restart the Windows Update component and fix any glitches if that&#8217;s the case.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"5_Make_sure_NET_Framework_is_enabled\"><\/span><strong>5. Make sure .NET Framework is enabled<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<ol>\n<li>Press Windows key + S and go to windows features.

Follow the on-screen instructions to complete it.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>After the troubleshooter is complete, check if the problem with Windows Update is resolved.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"7_Perform_a_clean_install\"><\/span><strong>7. Perform a clean install<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>If you have tried the previous solutions and it didn&#8217;t work, we recommend you to do a clean reinstall.<\/p>\n<p>That way you will definitely fix the problem at hand.<\/p>\n<p>That is, upgraded systems are much more error-resistant than those installed on a formatted hard drive.<\/p>\n<p>So, make a backup of your files and license key, To do that, just follow these steps:<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>First, back up your files and license key.<\/li>\n<li>Then, download the Media Creation Tool and use a USB or DVD to install the system.<\/li>\n<li>Once you have a bootable source, connect it to the affected device.<\/li>\n<li>Open the Start Menu, click the Power button, press and hold the Shift key, and select Restart from the menu. (Note that in some cases, you may need to open the BIOS and change the boot priority settings.)<\/li>\n<li>A list of options will appear. Select Troubleshooter &gt; Advanced options.<\/li>\n<li>On the next screen, select Startup Repair and follow the prompts.<\/li>\n<li>The process may reboot the device once again<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>Once the process is complete, you will have a fresh installation of Windows 10.<\/p>\n<p>It repairs corrupted files and fixes most of the errors caused by misconfiguration.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"The_Final_Word\"><\/span><strong>The Final Word<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Hopefully, how to solve the 0x800f081f windows 10 error in this guide can help you overcome errors that occur when updating Windows.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Update error 0X800f081f on Windows 10 often occurs when there are some corrupted files in your OS.
