Try this:

1. Re-register the Windows Update DLL with the commands below

Click Start, click Run, type cmd, and then click OK.
Copy and paste each of the following commands. Press ENTER after each command.

regsvr32 wuapi.dll
regsvr32 wuaueng.dll
regsvr32 wuaueng1.dll
regsvr32 wucltui.dll
regsvr32 wups.dll
regsvr32 wups2.dll
regsvr32 wuweb.dll

Then run the update again . .

If that does not work this has worked for me before.

Click Start, Run type in CMD
type net stop WuAuServ and click Enter
Click Start Run type %windir% and press enter
Rename the Folder SoftwareDistribution to SDold
Click Start Run CMD Type in net start WuAuServ
If you get any error here you should restart and then try the updates again.

they all worked simpswr but regsvr32 wuaueng1.dll says loadlibrary("regsvr32 wuaueng1.dll") failed- the specified module could not be found.

You can rename it Sdold2 or something else.
Then try the whole update all over again.
