|I also get this problem. The message is
| "Windows could not start the Windows Update service on Local Computer.
|
| Error 1058: The service cannot be started, either because it is disabled or
| because it has no enableed devices associated with it."
|
| So am I missing some file in my PC ? I checked the missing part but it
| doesn't tell me what I am missing.
| Or other reason is I think I install the BitDefender Internet Security
| 2008, so i think they blocked it and make some part become malfunction.
| Can You help me solve this problem please ! (my e-mail is
|
vncnusa-jimmy@yahoo.com). Thankyou !
