How do i resolve Windows Update Error Code "0x80093103" without having to pay money?

I have been unable to update my version of Windows 7 Home Premium.

Every time i try to update i get the following error code 0x80093103.

I have tried all the solutions shown on other forums and available through searching for this code on the internet to no avail.

I have tried disabling update in services and deleting SoftwareDistribution folder, moving it, renaming it but this doesn't help.

I've tried searching for other files to do with ActiveX but the files they say to delete are not there!

I am not willing to pay for a random computer fixer program that i don't know will work and can not trust or £42 to speak to a windows expert because the warranty for windows only lasts 90 days!

I'm desperate!

 

Thanks for any help out there!
