Windows Update error


Recommended Posts

I have not been able to update Vista since the beginning of July. I was being

helped by microsoft's Bruce Shi for awhile, but he stopped responding to my

e-mails.None of the solutions he gave worked. After going through this

community, I was able to remove the first error, but am now met with Error

800B0100. I have tried all the methods I could find on here. Clearing the

Sfotware distribution, renaming the Catroot, and using the Vista disk. When

using the Vista disk to upgrade, after it finishes it says that it could not

be installed. When I try to reinstall Windows Update, I get the error

0x800b0100.

Does anyone know how I can fix this? It wasn't bothering me so much before,

but lately my programs have been failing, and I'm guessing it's from not

updating.

For WinXP I would have suggested trying this -

Click Start, select Run, now type in:

regsvr32 wintrust.dll

Press Okay

 

I do not know if it will work in Vista as I haven't got around to trying it yet.

 

For Vista, you'll need to start another free Windows Update support incident request:
