Hi,
My laptop also has this problem.
However I do not have the KB3081424 to uninstall.
I have tried using the standalone installer without success.

Any help greatly appreciated.

Same here on one of my installs yesterday... searching for a fix myself

Tried most things to fix this, nothing worked.

So did a Repair Install and now PC is up to date on Windows Update.

hey i was wondering if we could turn off auto update under services.exe?
or is microsoft one step ahead of the crowd?

also is there a way to delete all updates like one could in older windows versions to get updates working again?

The issue i have is this : Windows 10 Updates fails to install even after multiple attempts. - Windows 10 Forums

ADDITIONAL SUGGESTION THAT WORKED FOR ME!!!! I was as frustrated as everyone here. I followed everything but my service was already running but starting manually. I clicked "RESTART" and the service was restarted but now it says starts "AUTOMATICALLY(DELAYED START)" . Regardless, I went back to updates and clicked "Check For Updates" and everything went through immediately. Solved my problem!

Run the DISM tool

• Swipe in from the right edge of the screen, and then tap Search.
  (If you're using a mouse, point to the lower-right corner of the screen, move the mouse pointer up, and then click Search.)
  
• Enter command prompt in the search box.
  
• In the list of results, swipe down on or right-click Command Prompt, and then tap or click Run as administrator.
  
• In the Administrator: Command Prompt window, enter the following commands. Press the Enter key after each command:
  DISM.exe /Online /Cleanup-image /Scanhealth
  DISM.exe /Online /Cleanup-image /Restorehealth
  
• To close the Administrator: Command prompt window, type Exit, and then press Enter.
  
• Run Windows Update again.
