Guest danno Posted August 23, 2007 Posted August 23, 2007 followed the thread from Resonator80 earlier today, having the same issue. I have 44 updates to install, and they have downloaded, but fail to install each time. I get this message in the windowsupdate.log: "warning WU client failed installing updates with error 0x80240020"... so, I search for that error, and get KB910341. for XP, step 1 says to log on as a local administrator. fine, all three users are administrators. step 2 tells me to look for some registry entries in this subkey: "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Winlogon\Notify\SensLogn" except, that computer doesn't have a Senslogn subkey. now what? XP Home Edition, Version 2002, Service Pack 2 (it says. dunno where to get the build info...) thanks, Dan

Mine neither. (Re)installing Windows Update Agent 3.0 with parameter "/wuforce" is something you've tried already? Bye, Freudi

I even went and (manually) added all the registry info in KB910341. STILL doesn't work... since I'm posting this from another machine, I can't copy/paste, but here are the errors from windowsupdate.log: warning: GetUserTokenFromSessionId failed with error 800704dd for session 0 warning: exit code 0x80240020 warning WU client failed installing updates with error 0x80240020 >>-- RESUMED -- COMAPI: Install [ClientID = MicrosoftUpdate] Install call failed Reboot required = no warning: exit code 0x80240FFF Call error code = 0x80240020 ---------- -- END -- COMAPI: Install [ClientID = MicrosoftUpdate] ----------- WARNING: Operation failed due to earlier error, hr=80240020 (end)
Guest Vince Posted August 23, 2007 Posted August 23, 2007 I don't know if this will help but it has for me in the past. Instead of getting the updates from auto updates go to the update site and uncheck the update you note is an issue KB910341 download and install the rest see if it works. If that works you may be able to do the last update once the others are done.

Guest danno Posted August 23, 2007 Posted August 23, 2007 problem is, I can't get even a single one to update. none of them, either singly, or in a group, or automatically, will update... thanks for the idea though...

Guest cerberus Posted August 24, 2007 Posted August 24, 2007 If windows updates fail to install First of all make sure your Time is set correct on your Computer ( you will find in the Right-bottom of the screen). Open a run command and try to Re-register these DLLs for the update Engine: net stop wuauserv click [OK] regsvr32 wuapi.dll click [OK] regsvr32 wuweb.dll click [OK] regsvr32 atl.dll click [OK] regsvr32 wups2.dll click [OK] regsvr32 wuaueng1.dll click [OK] regsvr32 wups.dll click [OK] regsvr32 MSXML3.dll click [OK] regsvr32 wucltui.dll click [OK] regsvr32 wuaueng.dll click [OK] net start wuauserv click [OK] Also Turn any firewall and Defender off for the Update (please turn ON after the update either success or failure) Then Reboot your machine and try the Updates. You receive an access violation error and the system may appear to become unresponsive when you try to install an update from Windows Update or from Microsoft Update http://support.microsoft.com/kb/927891 "danno" wrote: > followed the thread from Resonator80 earlier today, having the same issue. > I have 44 updates to install, and they have downloaded, but fail to install > each time.

Guest Walt K Posted September 15, 2007 Posted September 15, 2007 Thank you so much. I am having exact same problem you describe, same error message, no "Senslogn" key and have tried MANY things. Nothing has worked. I will now try the fix you posted here. I have blown HOURS AND HOURS on this!

Guest Walt K Posted September 15, 2007 Posted September 15, 2007 tried all perturbations on that (having same problem as dano here). Tried only the first, only the last, all but the first, one from the middle at random. NOTHING WORKS.
