Windows Updates failing/Unable to install any updates

W

I have a Windows Server 2012 Standard machine that has recently started having trouble installing any Windows Updates. Every update fails through Windows Update. If I download an update manually and try the install it fails. If I try to install an updated version of .Net Framework (4.7.2) it fails. When I run sfc /scannow it returns almost immediately with no issues found. However, when I try to run DISM /online /cleanup-image /RestoreHealth (or ScanHealth) it runs for several minutes and then fails with the error 14005 The manifest file contains one or more syntax errors.


I am out of ideas as to what to try next short of reinstalling Windows.
