Hard to tell, but you may just need to reboot. I'd also make sure you've installed all Windows Updates that you need, as the one we're trying to install should be in there (which means our installer doesn't have to do it). The error code is from Windows Update (which we sometimes need to run as part of the install), and there's so much spam out there these days that it is impossible to find out what it means.

The error is WU_E_NOT_INITIALIZED [1], "the object could not be initialized" -- whatever object it's talking about. [1]: https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/kb/938205

Closing as third-party, but happy to reopen if this turns out to be something specific to our installer and not the configuration of the target system.
