Problem Accessing WU: 0x800C0002
in [Windows Update]
|
From: noone on 9 Dec 2009 16:17 The problem persists. The reasonable approach seems to be to remove this month's updates one at a time, starting with the one for IE, and see the problem goes away. Is there anything I should try first? noone wrote: > Okay. I won't do anything for now and will report back.

From: noone on 9 Dec 2009 19:45 The problem remains even after the removal of the updates so it's likely caused by the download of the new WU components either before or after the application of the updates. How can I force WU to refresh its components? There's an update option when I right-click on the WUWebControl Class from Windows explorer. Would that do it? noone wrote: > The problem persists.

From: noone on 13 Dec 2009 18:40 A reload of the Windows Update Agent with "WindowsUpdateAgent30-x86.exe /wuforce" had no effect. Does anyone have a solution to this? noone wrote: > The problem remains even after the removal of the updates so it's likely > caused by the download of the new WU components either before or after > the application of the updates.

From: noone on 10 Jan 2010 19:08 The problem with Windows Update was resolved by replacing IE 5.01 SP4 with IE 6 SP1. Expect to have to apply/reapply a number of updates afterwards. noone wrote: > A reload of the Windows Update Agent with "WindowsUpdateAgent30-x86.exe > /wuforce" had no effect.
