Greetings and welcome

I suspect you're running an IOLO product, such as System Mechanic, correct? If that is the case then please refer to the following information from our FAQ:

ISSUE: I keep getting the following detections, even after allowing Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware to fix them:

HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\scrfile\shell\open\command\(default) (Broken.OpenCommand) -> Bad: (NOTEPAD.EXE %1) Good: ("%1" /S)
HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\regfile\shell\open\command\(default) (Broken.OpenCommand) -> Bad: (NOTEPAD.EXE %1) Good: (regedit.exe "%1")

SOLUTION: Most often when these two items return repeatedly it is due to the presence of an IOLO product such as System Mechanic. System Mechanic and other IOLO security products alter these settings from their Windows defaults. If you do have an IOLO product installed, it is best to simply change the security setting in your IOLO product so that it does not change the settings for .reg files and .scr files or that you simply have Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware ignore these particular detections. These entries are not actual infections, just system settings changes that are not set to their defaults, which is something that some infections will do to prevent .reg files and .scr files from executing, which is why Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware detects these items, since it has no way of knowing if the change was made by the user, an infection, or a legitimate software such as IOLO.

I believe there was a recent issue with some .NET Framework updates failing to install. You might try unselecting those 3 updates and just try installing the Office updates, then rebooting if prompted, checking for updates again, then trying to install thos .NET Framework updates separately, one at a time.

If that doesn't resolve it, then I'd recommend creating a new topic about the Windows Update problem in this area as that part of the forum is for general, non-Malwarebytes Anti-Malware PC issues.

Someone will help you get Windows Update working properly again.
