Since the command for registering the WUAUENG.DLL file is one of the
commands in the "wordpad method", that negates your misspelling of the
filename as a possible cause for the 0x80070424 error.
More often than not, reregistering the WUAUENG.DLL file fixes that error, so
I had to do some searching for another possible fix, and this has worked in
a couple of cases:
Go to Start>Run and key in:
net stop wuauserv
Then click on OK or hit ENTER
When the Automatic Updates service has stopped, use My Computer or Windows
Explorer to navigate to the C:\Windows or C:\WINNT (if C:\Windows does not
exist) folder. Rename the SoftwareDistribution folder to SDOLD
Go to Start>Run and key in:
net start wuauserv
Then click on OK or hit ENTER
Now try the Windows Update site and see if the error has been resolved.
