RE: [Error number: 0x80245003] - Keep getting this!

Hello

This isn't working for me. The WU and MU classes are not in the folder they
should be, possibly because I'm working on a PC that I have had to use system
restore on so some file maybe missing. I can achieve all the actions you
have given except deleting these.

If you have any more suggestions, it would be appreciated. I had the same
problem last year at about the same time that the Windows Genuine Advantage
toold was automatically download, but the WGA furom "experts" are insisting
that my problem is not withe the WGA tool but with the Active X control.

They could be right as my PC is crashing within 2 minutes of downloading
anything from the MS update site, even after a system restore.

Thanks

1. Rename the Update temporary folders.

Net stop WuAuServ

2. Click Start, Run, type: %windir% and press Enter.
3. In the opened folder, rename the folder SoftwareDistribution to Sdold.
4. Click Start, Run, type: cmd and press Enter. Please run the following
command in the opened window.

Net start WuAuServ

2. Remove the corrupted Active X control
=====================================
1. Open Interent Options
2. On the General Tab choose Settings under Temporary Internet Files
3. Then click on View Objects.
4. Right Click WuWebControl Class and choose remove
5. Right Click MuWebControl Class and choose remove
6. Delete the file c:\windows\system32\wuweb.dll
7. Delete the file c:\windows\system32\muweb.dll

The above steps will help us remove the ActiveX controls for Windows Update
and Microsoft Update. Then will download a new one to instead of the
corrupted one.
