Had exactly the same problem over the weekend, small batches seemed OK but then I had problems with them (it had been a while since the laptop had been fired up).
Made the decision I had been thinking of for a while - back to windows 7.

I had a similar issue with my Win 7/ updated to Win 8.1 box.
Search from tiles screen stopped working, icons for certain windows programs were lost, error messages relating to urlmon.dll when I tried to do anything network admin related.
The system file checker found errors, but couldn't fix them. System refresh from the Win 8 install disk fell over. Decided to wait for a rainy day to do a complete system install.
Then, after the last round of Windows updates all is sweet again.
Methinks a previous update was a dud.![]()
only real problem i have found with windows updates in 8.1 is that if you do them some will fail until you reboot and then they magically work...
renaming the windows.old directory fixes a multitude of things oddly enough...
