FWIW the closest I can find information for that code is this:

(Google web search for

0xC0000156 STATUS_TOO_MANY_SECRETS
The maximum number of secrets that may be stored in a single system was exceeded.
The length and number of secrets is limited to satisfy U.S. State Department export restrictions.

Where are you posting from? Perhaps you will have to change your location? <eg>

If your objective is just to install that update you could try downloading it
and installing it manually.


Good luck
