RE: Update scan fails

Greg,

Thanks for the detailed instructions. Unfortunately, it did not work for
me. But, I still appreciate your post.

I was getting the same error. An earlier post had a fix that works for me. I
just pasted into notepad, did a little cleanup, and saved as a batch file.
Many thanks to TaurArian. Here's the snippet that helped:


As I said, it works for some -

You may need to re-registered some more files:

1. Click Start.
2. Choose Run.
3. In the Run box, type (pressing okay after each one) :-

net stop wuauserv

Repeat for the following:
regsvr32 wuapi.dll
regsvr32 wups.dll
regsvr32 wuaueng.dll
regsvr32 wuaueng1.dll
regsvr32 wucltui.dll
regsvr32 wuweb.dll
regsvr32 MSXML3.dll
regsvr32 qmgr.dll
regsvr32 qmgrprxy.dll
regsvr32 jscript.dll

net start wuauserv

I'm having similar difficulties.

The first time I tried to update, the update web page froze where it says
it's searching for updates.

The second time I got an error message [Error number: 0x8024400A] saying:

"The website has encountered a problem and cannot display the page you are
trying to view."

Looks like an MS SNAFU to me.
