Split from this thread.

I cannot get to this at all because of the error 0x800c0006 when trying to update in programs and features "Windows Essentials 2012' on a Windows 10 x64 PC. After a run of a few minutes (7- 10) I get this error. I am not talking about Windows Security Essential BUT Windows Essential (as it is listed in program and features). In the reply to DrStrangelove by ManwellC, I do not see how you got to this screeen from the error condition. When I run the 'change' in programs and features to Windows Essentials I only get as far as the mentioned error dialogue. Can anyone tell me how to fix this as the Mail ... Movie Maker and other apps / programs need a fix?

Help will be appreciated. ~~ TigerWizard

First, Will86 meant Windows Live Essentials. There is no second. I just disliked the condescending tone of the reply.
