Guest waqaspai Posted August 20, 2007 Posted August 20, 2007 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. -- waqaspai ------------------------------------------------------------------------ waqaspai's Profile: http://forums.techarena.in/member.php?userid=29657 View this thread: http://forums.techarena.in/showthread.php?t=804151 http://forums.techarena.in

That's where you should look for the cause of this issue.

Guest MowGreen [MVP] Posted August 22, 2007 Posted August 22, 2007 Re: I have to register the dlls every time before xp could installupdates 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 http://support.microsoft.com/kb/822158 MowGreen [MVP 2003-2007] =============== *-343-* FDNY Never Forgotten =============== waqaspai wrote: > I am using norton antivirus 2005 > > what and where should i look for the cause ? > >
