How to view the Update log in Windows

Click Start, and then click Run.
In the Open box, type : %windir%\windowsupdate.log
and then click OK.

Scroll down towards the bottom for the latest entries to locate the error code(s)
associated with the latest failed attempt to download/install. If appropriate copy and
paste the error codes into a new thread on the Windows Update Newsgroup so someone may be
able to assist you. On the other hand, you may be able to find the error code and other
suggestions by searching the Newsgroup.

Also check Windows folder for file called KB******.log (****** = number of update ie
KB896688) and post the contents of the failed update.
This may provide further clues as to why the update failed.

After playing, I suppose with accounts, on my PC, I have problem with
installing automatic updates files.

I noticed on the Internet that this error in AutomaticUpdates.log is
crucial. so
is there now any elegant solution becuse I only created temporarily and
removed one Administrator account!

Thanks!
