Failed to synchronize, error = 0x80072EFE

J

jaybo

I keep getting this code, 0x80072EFE, on the Windows Update Site when I click on either
Express or Custom buttons. After I click on a button it scans for a few seconds
then disconnects me from my dial up connection.

This is the last part of my recent Windows Update Log File.
It shuts me down every time.

A previous reply to this request was appreciated, but it didn't solve the problem.

Any other ideas? Thanks

I also had this error behind ISA and these are my findings for error
0x080072efe....

If you are behind an ISA firewall and even if you ( like me ) have full
Internet access and have the ISA firewall client running, YOU MUST add the
proxy server configuration in IE.... make sure you have Automatically
detect.. unchecked...

Go to windows update and VOILA !!!
