Running Win 8.1 Pro 64bit and I have been trying for over 2 weeks to install KB3008923 - tried 8-10 times. Everything seems successful until the restart and then at 67% complete it bombs out and undoes everything. Have tried downloading and running manually (same results) and have tried the Windows Update Diagnostic Tool. The diagnostic tool finds several errors and says they are "fixed" but it lies. I can run the diagnostic several times - either restarting between times or not) and it still finds and "fixes" these same errors. And no luck getting 3008923 to take either before or after "fixes" and restart.
Error Code for the Update is 800F0922 and I've attempted fixes outlined for it including resizing the System Reserved Partition in case it was too small. Still no joy.
Running Norton Internet Security so don't know if it's got something locked out or not. I am logged in as an Administrator, so I assume that the Diagnostic and Updates run at sufficiently elevated privileges so I'm not sure where to go from here. Any help would be much appreciated.:(

After a week waiting for reply, I guess I'm the only one so afflicted, so guess I'll have to install an old system image, see if it'll update and start arguing with Microsoft about why I'm having to reinstall Microsoft Office 2013 (downloaded product) within a month of initial installation.:huh:
