You can always try Protector's solution...
press WindowsKey+R, type gpedit.msc and press Enter.
Click "Computer Configuration", click "Administrative Templates", click "System", and then double-click the "Specify settings for optional component installation and component repair" setting.
Select "Enabled", click check box for "Contact Windows Update directly...." - apply and OK
Type CMD in Search. Right click on it to run as an administrator. (You can also right-click on the start button and select "Command Prompt (Admin)")
Type the following 5 commands at the CMD prompt:
>WSReset.exe (go back to the cmd screen and press ctrl-c to get the prompt back)
>dism /online /cleanup-image /restorehealth
>dism /online /cleanup-image /StartComponentCleanup
>sfc /scannow
>powershell
>Get-AppXPackage -AllUsers |Where-Object {$_.InstallLocation -like "*SystemApps*"} | Foreach {Add-AppxPackage -DisableDevelopmentMode -Register "$($_.InstallLocation)\AppXManifest.xml"}
Close the CMD window.
Check to see if the issue is resolved. If not, restart the PC.
Also, what update gives you this error?

tried your reply but dont see
"Specify settings for optional component installation and component repair" setting.
