As far as I know it's a legal version. I borrowed it from my brother because my PC didn't come with a disc. He says his install off the same disc is working fine. I have also tried installing them individually and even then I still receive the same error codes. I did try putting the disc in to do a system repair and it told me that the version of windows I installed does not match the version of windows on the disc, even though it is the disc I installed from. I have also ran virus scans through Avast Pro and Advanced System Care and neither found any so I doubt it could be a virus.
I had a similar issue once before and I ended up renaming the SoftwareDistribution folder.
Try this:
Rename the folder at this location “%windir%/Softwaredistribution – normally, that should be Computer | C Drive | Windows |Softwaredistribution.
To be able to rename the folder, you should first stop the Window Update service like this:
Make sure you are logged on as an Administrator
Stop the Windows Update service
Press the Start button | Control Panel | System and Security | Administrative Tools
Double click “Services”
Or
Go to Start | Run and type services.msc in the “Open” box to access the services console.
Scroll to and select the Windows Update service, then click the “Stop” button on top. This will stop the Windows Update services and allow you to rename the folder.
After renaming the folder, restart the Windows Update service and try updating your system again. The update service should recreate the SoftwareDistribution folder and repopulate it with update data including missing updates and you should be able to install updates. It worked for me but as usual, your experience may be different.
If things go sideways, then just perform the above steps and delete the new folder and rename to the old folder to the original and restart the service - but I doubt it.
Hope this helps.
