Problem with custom rather than express option....


Recommended Posts

When using Update, it appears to work correctly for the express option, ie it

trawls away with the progress bar moving and after an obscene length of time

reports no updates to download however if I click on Custom then the progress

bar space appears but no green appears in it and nothing appears to happen.

Does anyone have any ideas ??

re-register the following:-

Click Start > Run

Type: net.exe stop wuauserv

Press OK

Repeat the above steps for the following:

regsvr32 wuapi.dll

regsvr32 wups.dll

regsvr32 wuaueng.dll

regsvr32 wucltui.dll

regsvr32 msxml3.dll

net.exe start wuauserv

 

Try the WU site again.
