How to fix Windows update problems |
 |
| I have listed the instructions and text file of some .dll files that need to be installed so the Windows Update problems can be fixed (this does not apply to any WGA related windows update problems).
1st Solution: 1. A misconfigured Proxy/Firewall can cause this problem. Double-check the Proxy/Firewall settings. Add the following urls to the exception list within your Firewall/Proxy: http://*.update.microsoft.com For help configuring Proxy/Firewall refer to documentation or contact the manufacturer. Open Internet Explorer. On the Tools, select Internet Options. Click on the Connections tab. Click on the LAN Settings. Click on the Advanced button. Please delete any entry in the Exceptions section. Next, clear your proxy cache. Click on Start, and then click Run. Type cmd in the Open box to get a DOS prompt. Type proxycfg -d at the command prompt, and press Enter. Type net stop wuauserv at the command prompt, and press Enter. Type net start wuauserv at the command prompt, and press Enter. Now try the site again. |
If the above steps dont work, then follow the below instructions: - you will need to download the reg_bat_windows_update_stuff.txt file from the below link. 2nd Solution: a) First: Close any internet explore screens, and any windows update screens, etc
b) open the "reg_bat_windows_update_stuff" (see attached) and save it as "reg.bat" in your desktop
c) this file will become an executable file
d) double click and on this reg.bat file and it will automatically install each .dll file one at a time
=> now test to see if the windows update is working...by performing a manual windows update. |
| Download the reg_bat_windows_update_stuff.txt - click here (select "save as") - this should automatically save as .txt file to the location of your choice. Remember where you saved it, so you can access it to rename and run as a .bat file. |
