Install Windows Update Standalone Installer remotely using DSC

DSC

Hi all I have the code which I am running locally to update the software using PowerShell

Configuration V5Install
{
    node "$env:COMPUTERNAME"
    {

        LocalConfigurationManager
        {
            RebootNodeIfNeeded = $true
        }

        Package InstallPowerShell_V5
        {
            Name = "PowerShellV5"
            Path = "$($env:WINDIR)\system32\wusa.exe"
            ProductId = ""
            Arguments = "C:\Windows\Temp\W2K12-KB3134759-x64.msu /quiet"
        }
    }
}

V5Install -OutputPath $env:SystemDrive:\DSCconfig -Verbose
Set-DscLocalConfigurationManager -ComputerName $env:COMPUTERNAME -Path $env:SystemDrive\DSCconfig
Start-DscConfiguration -ComputerName $env:COMPUTERNAME -Path $env:SystemDrive:\DSCconfig  -Wait -Force

I got an error message as follows

PowerShell DSC resource MSFT_PackageResource failed to execute Set-TargetResource functionality with error message: The return code 3 was not expected. Configuration is likely not correct + CategoryInfo : InvalidOperation: (:) [], CimException + FullyQualifiedErrorId : ProviderOperationExecutionFailure + PSComputerName : My-PC

The SendConfigurationApply function did not succeed.
+ CategoryInfo : NotSpecified: (root/Microsoft/…gurationManager:String) , CimException
