Window Updates scan is slow and updates not installing

I tried the MS steps and this did not solve the problem. The errors
continue to occur.

It seems this error is not correctable at this point in time and the updates
that installed through Automatic Update caused this problem. I would like
to install the security updates that need to get installed and correct this
problem.

Thanks.
