On Friday, 1/20, I created an Azure VM from the image
SQL Server 2016 SP1 Enterprise on Windows Server 2016
On Monday, 1/23, Windows Updates downloaded and tried to install the following
Important Update for SQL Server 2016 SP1 Reporting Services (KB3207512)
but it failed (Error 0x80070643). I hit the "retry" and it kept failing. I then shut down all SQL Server services and tried again, no luck, it failed.
I then tried to manually download the KB, SQLServer2016-KB3207512-x64.exe. This also failed but provided more details on the error. The link at the bottom of the message does not go anywhere useful. The message Details:
Action required:
Use the following information to resolve the error, and then try the setup process again.
Feature failure reason:
An error occurred for a dependency of the feature causing the setup process for the feature to fail.
Error details:

The upgrade cannot be installed by the Windows Installer service because the program to be upgraded may be missing, or the upgrade may update a different version of the program. Verify that the program to be upgraded exists on your computer and that you have
