Windows 8.1 Update fails after Ancile

[Former user]

Hi, my Windows 8.1 fails to load monthly updates since I've used Ancile. First, I got the error 80072EFD, which I "fixed" by removing the IP addresses from the hosts file which Ancile put there. Now I get the error 80200056, which I am sure I can circumvent as well, but I'd really appreciate it if Ancile wouldn't break the update process.

Ticking the updates one by one did the trick, as such I cannot reliably say that Ancile was the culprit here.

Windows Update has been tricky and problematic from time to time. Sometimes it just doesn't want to cooperate. Especially when uninstalling and hiding a large number of updates, or sometimes for no reason whatsoever. I'm happy to hear you got things working.
