I have 3 Windows servers running 2019 v1809 that have the same error. Error 0x800703f1. For the same KB4535680. I have already attempted; sfc, dism, chkdsk, in-place upgrade. All fail. Any ideas or suggestions??

    The only real solution that worked for me was this

    https://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/forum/all/finally-an-actual-solution-to-0x800703f1-and/69b358b5-bdbf-4cd5-8af1-395c10394c6f

    My case :

    • Windows Update fails (error 0x800703f1 or 0xca00a000 or similar)
    • SFC /scannow throws the following error: Windows Resource Protection could not perform the requested operation.
    • DISM /Online /Cleanup-Image /RestoreHealth fails at 4.5% with Error: 1009: The configuration registry database is corrupt.
    • Also tried in-place upgrade which also failed

    So conventional way did not help. The steps in the link above where the only way to fix
