RE: Active X control in Windows update



Hello David,

Clearing Temporary Internet files, cookies and history in Internet Explorer

Tools>Internet Options>General

You'll see Delete Cookies, Delete files, Delete History

Reboot and try Windows Update again.


See if the solution in this thread helps.

Also please confirm your system clock and Time Zone also the Date set
properly, Having it set incorrectly can cause this type of behavior.



I hope this post is helpful.

Let us know how it works ºut.

Good luck
