The problem was with Windows update.The "Windows Module installer" service was disabled once i enabled it and cleared up all the updates in C:\Windows\software distribution folder, it started updating and when i install the sqlserver-2012 i dint get that error anymore.

This is where i found about the service. https://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/forum/all/windows-update-error-80070422/372f6482-ff7c-4f92-858c-228b637bfae4
