Cannot scan for any auto updates, keep getting error 0x8024001D.
I have tried the suggested fix:
net.exe stop wuauserv
regsvr32.exe wuapi.dll
regsvr32.exe wups.dll
regsvr32.exe wuaueng.dll
regsvr32.exe wucltui.dll
regsvr32.exe msxml3.dll
net.exe start wuauserv

After trying that, it still does not work. Any ideas or help would be
appreciated.
