Still no luck ..

Resolution 

Step 3: Reboot the server censso01   (We have performed the above steps and server has not been rebooted so far )

Further steps needs to be followed if patch compliance scan fails again after following the above steps 

ISSUE GOT RESOLVED AT STEP 5 ITSELF :-)

Select this Option and download the tool >>>>>>>>>>>>> Download and run the Windows Update Troubleshooter for Windows 8.1, Windows 8, and Windows 7.

Note   Windows Server 2012 R2 with update 2919355 already include the latest version of the Windows Update Agent. So, there is no need to update the WUA
