I have to register the dlls every time before xp could install updates

Xp was downloading updates but was not installing them.

 

I read on some threads to do the following, etc:

REGSVR32 WUAPI.DLL

Start > Run > regsvr32 wuapi.dll > OK

Start > Run > regsvr32 wups.dll > OK

Start > Run > regsvr32 wuaueng.dll > OK

Start > Run > regsvr32 wucltui.dll > OK

Start > Run > regsvr32 atl.dll > OK

Start > Run > regsvr32 MSXML3.dll > OK

 

XP did install the updates fine.

 

But now every time when it shows any new updates - it downloads the

updates but does not install them

 

So i have to perform the same task again and then the updates start

fine.

 

I am sure there must be a way to fix this forever ?

please help.

Which antivirus/security software is installed ? That's where you should

look for the cause of this issue.

Norton Antivirus 2005 is the culprit.

Please see this and, hopefully, this issue can be resolved:

 

Virus scanning recommendations for computers that are running Windows

Server 2003, Windows 2000, or Windows XP
