Re: WinXP SP2 Repaired, Windows Update Sees updates, fails to inst
I had the same problem : the destruction of destruction of the
SoftwareDistribution directory did not solve it. But the execution of your
registration batch did it alone. Very good shot !!!

Open a Command Prompt, at the prompt type in the following, pressing
Enter after each command

net stop wuauserv
regsvr32 wups2.dll
net start wuauserv
exit

No need to register *ALL* those files:

Re: fix "updates fail" "update failure" after hd reformat replacement
The dll "did the trick", D. Pavot. Thanks, as I have no idea how to create a
batch file, but can follow directions on entering commands a the "C:" prompt.

Re: WinXP SP2 Repaired, Windows Update Sees updates, fails to inst
I did a google search after Windows Update failed and ended up here. The
three lines below got me going again. Windows Update has been stuck for the
last two months until I found this.

THANKS!

Re: WinXP SP2 Repaired, Windows Update Sees updates, fails to inst
Thanks MowGreen, your suggestion of the 3 command line commands was exactly
what my machine required. May I ask what this command is actually doing in
regards to the dll file?

Thanks again!

Re: WinXP SP2 Repaired, Windows Update Sees updates, fails to inst
The command registers the .dll. Seems there's an old reference in the
registry that is retained through a Repair installation and registering
it points to the proper file [CLSID] and path.
