Important Windows Updates won't download and install - 8E5E0152 error

I have a Dell Inspiron 3847 running WIndows 8.1.  Windows Update no longer works. Every time I run it will run for a long time saying it is downloading; then it errors out with the error above. I called Dell Support and they got NOWHERE.  They loaded Click2Fix+ to Fix Windows Update and download the updates in a command window.  Same results. I sat there for 3 hours while the technician did the exact same thing over and over as if repetition would fix it.  Does ANYONE have any idea how to get this to work because Dell sure doesn't seem to know!
