Just did a repair (not the complete install) with XP Pro SP2. Now
when I go to Windows Update it searches and downloads 76 updates,
but when I click Install it reports that it was unable to install
some updates (actually all 76). Why will it not install them?? Any fix
for this? TIA.
Try one (or both) of these:
Solution to try (1):
Get Dial-a-Fix:
http://wiki.djlizard.net/Dial-a-fix
Use its options to fix Windows Installer, fix Windows Update, and all the
Registration Center options.
Turn off the "Empty System32\Catroot 2"
Then click "GO"
Do NOT do "Flush SoftwareDistribution".
Solution to try (2):
1) Reboot and logon as a user with Administrative Privs...
2) Immediately run the following batch script (You will have to create it by
cutting/pasting as directed.)
- Click Start, Run, type: notepad C:\register.bat and press Enter. Choose
Yes when you are prompted.
- Copy the following commands and then paste them into the opened Notepad
window:
