WSUS Server crapped the bed after installing KB3159706

I have several domain controllers I manage for local businesses and most of them I run WSUS on the hyper-v host. Lately I've had a run in with KB3159706 which was not pleasant. After it's installed I get the following error in Windows Event Viewer: 
"Login failed for user 'NT AUTHORITY\NETWORK SERVICE'. Reason: Failed to open the explicitly specified database 'SUSDB'. [CLIENT: <named pipe>]"

If you look on the internet for a bit you'll find several solutions saying to remove the referenced KB. I say nay to that.

Basically the steps boil down to:

1. Open an elevated Command Prompt and run "C:\Program Files\Update Services\Tools\wsusutil.exe" postinstall /servicing
2. Enable HTTP Activation under .NET Framework 4.5 Features in the Server Manager Add Roles and Features Wizard
3. Restart the WSUS service

No need to uninstall KB3159706.
