Administrators AWS Posted February 6, 2013 Administrators Posted February 6, 2013 I was following the exact instructions for /kb/971058 since all automatic fixing methods failed.The first step in this procedure is to stop the BITS service, either by command or by the Administrative Tools.When I tried the command line method: net stop bits, it came back with BITS could not be stopped.Then I rebooted and noticed that BITS had status: 'started'. Then tried the Administrative Tools for stopping BITS, that one came back with the message that BITS could not be stopped in a timely fashion, ERROR 1053. What does it mean?I need to stop BITS service before I can proceed with the instructions for fixing the Windows update, and then start up BITS again after the registry fixing procedure in /kb/971058. Please help me someone out there.Johannes View this thread
