Re: Error c0150004 with update

I am on a home PC running Vista Home premium - no WSUS and no sysadmin!

How do I switch between MU and AU agent?

I am totally stuck unable to load the new patches because Windows Update
reports error c0150004.

is there a fix for this?

log file below


It looks as if an update is failing an applicability check.
How did you get it? WSUS? (FWIW I don't have a wsus3setup.cab
in my SelfUpdate directory.) If so, look for support from your administrator.

Otherwise perhaps you should try installing the same one
manually (possibly with verbose logging specified) to see if that works
any better (or at least gives a different perspective on the error.)

Were any other diagnostics created by the install attempt?
Do a search of all files created that day, sort them by Date Modified
(hence sort them by timestamp on that day), then scroll to the ones
which the update changed.

In addition you could supplement the information in any logs (verbose
or otherwise) by running ProcMon.

It looks as if this could be an update to the MU agent; so another thing
which might work is switching to the AU agent, getting it updated if necessary,
and then see if it can download and install non-MU updates for you.
Again, doing that would at least give you some different symptoms to look at.


Good luck
