The stage thing is that there is no error codes in the log even though I get
"Initialization error 0x800A1391" in W/Explorer when starting the search.


You might only find that in other logs and it might only appear there
as the equivalent decimal value for that code as:
- the last half e.g. 0x1391 == 5009
- a signed doubleword e.g. 0x800A1391 == -2146823279
- an unsigned qword e.g. 0x800A1391 == 2148144017

Tip: your Calculator in the Accessories folder is handy for doing these conversions.
(Or just press the Calculator button on an MS keyboard if you have one.)




If I search in Maxthon I am able to search and find the update downloads. I
then select to download & install and nothing happens.

What happens if you use IE instead? BTW you haven't disclosed any
version information about either your OS or your IE.


The log shows 4 found and no error message for not downloading.

Are you sure you went back far enough?
E.g. notice the "RESUMED"? I would have expected to see
something before that about the thing being resumed...
Perhaps that is where you could find some clues about the
4 updates which were found and whether a problem occurred
when trying to download them? Also, perhaps it would be necessary
to activate verbose logging to see them? (Ref. KB902093)
However, I prefer using ProcMon to supplement the log messages
as I think it provides clearer clues about what occurred before the
message was written and hence what it may mean.

Still no closer to solving the problem.
