The error code come from the Windows Update window as follows:
"Code 80070246 Get help"
The get help does not lead to any fixes. Also, searching the error code
does not produce a solution (only the post from "fernando" that you replied
too).
WindowsUpdate log shows the following:

Windows version? IE version? Which updates are failing to install?

Did you find "Error 0x80070246" (verbatim) listed in your Windows Update
log?
