From: AJN on 11 Apr 2008 07:10 I noticed that I stopped receiving Vista updates around 3/27/08. I searched all threads and forums for a fix. No luck. I stopped UAC, tried to install the windows update again, got the same error when I tried to re install the windows update .exe. I tried to reregisterd the .dll's as in another thread and it tells me that initpki.dll could not be found. I stopped the auto update service and delete the windowsupdate log file and the software distribution folder. Hence, I tried everything direction I could find by live search or thread search and nothing works. I not sure what else to do other than reload the system. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks, AJ
From: Jamal Akkad, Saudi Arabia Jamal Akkad, Saudi on 11 Apr 2008 08:38 Same problem I am facing and tried almost all what you mentioned but no success. I wonder what is going on or how to fix it. However, my MAC is doing fine and I rely on it in my critical business. This Vista is for fun only. "AJN" wrote: > I noticed that I stopped receiving Vista updates around 3/27/08.

Okay, thank you. Would this help with my Windows Vista Automatic Updates problem? I have not even tried to load or install Vista SP 1 as of yet.
