When the update rolled out I was really happy and I could not wait to install it. On my desktop everything went great, no problems at all! So I started the update process on my HTPC as well.

But it went wrong...


After searching on Google I had the following things I could try:
  1. Format my pc
  2. Run cmd in administrator mode
    • dism /online /remove-package/packagename:Package_for_KB2919355~31bf3856ad364e35~amd64~~6.3.1.14
    •  dism /online /cleanup-image /startcomponentcleanup
  3. Run cmd in administrator mode
    •  Sfc /scannow
But they all failed... Now 5 days later Microsoft still hasn't done anything to help us so I went back searching. My last hope before formatting my pc was System Restore. First I tried to set my pc back to the day I installed the update for the first time, April 9. The process started and after reboot I got this screen.
So I was all like... Okay what now. As I was thinking should I take my Ubuntu live disk for backing up my data and where is my Windows 8.1 setup disk I was thinking lets try it one more time. So I tried System restore again but now I chose March 29 as restore point and it succeeded. I was back at my desktop, great! Then the first thing I did was installing KB2919355. Not from Windows Update but with the stand-alone installer, which can be found here (64 bit) or here (32 bit). And it installed just fine now!

So why the update failed? Well the only difference when I installed the update on both my HTPC and desktop was the update order. On my desktop I installed all the available updates except KB2919355. After rebooting I installed it. On my HTPC I was all like: "Just install them in one time". So thank you Microsoft for the great update...

After the update was successfully installed I did the other updates.
