Congratulations. <w> The closest error codes can be viewed here but the specific one your system threw is not on the list: http://blogs.msdn.com/joshpoley/pages/errors-004-facility-itf.aspx The error appears to be related to the Software Licensing Service, which, naturally, is not a Service in Win7. Check to see if either the Software Protection or SPP Notification services have been Disabled in the Services console Start orb > type in services.msc The Default settings for them are Software Protection - Automatic (delayed start) SPP Notification - Manual If they are already set to their Default values, please try another attempt at updating. When it fails, close the Windows Update window. Click the Start orb and type in windowsupdate.log in the search field.

No upgrade, fresh install albeit a while ago and have been able to, since this install, run, download and install updates., I have been able to download and install the latest Microsoft security essentials AV defs though. All Microsoft stuff as per earlier comment and the firewall on the router has not been re-configured i.e. I was able to run, download and install updates with same router firewall config. Absolutely not, if I was going to go 3rd party it would be Kaspersky or Sophos however I put my bets on Microsoft's own tool being 'better informed' of the risks and threats to Windows.

I will assume that the services I mentioned in the previous post were set to their Default values, correct ? The Windows Update Agent (WUA)installed is the one that came with Win7 RTM. For some reason, it is not being updated and thus no updates are searched for/offered/downloaded/installed/etc. In most cases this issue is related to the installed security software. Notice the difference in the below entry from the WU.log on my Win7 box and the one from your system, Ed From your system: See where it states " WuRedir_prerelease " ? Not sure why there is a 'prerelease' entry present in the log from your system, so let us see if we can resolve that. Download the latest release of the WUA for Windows x64 and save it to your User Account's Downloads subfolder: http://download.windowsupdate.com/windowsupdate/redist/standalone/7.4.7600.226/windowsupdateagent30-x64.exe Open the Services console and stop the following services if they are showing as Started. Also, ensure that their Startup type is set to their Default values: Background Intelligent Transfer Service - Manual Windows Update - Automatic (Delayed Start) Ensure that these services have *not* been Disabled and are set to Manual for Startup type: Windows Installer Windows Modules Installer WinHTTP Web Proxy-Auto Discovery Using Windows Explorer, navigate to C:\Windows\Software Distribution Delete *each* subfolder of Software Distribution; do NOT delete the Software Distribution folder. Navigate to your User Account's Downloads subfolder and *right* click windowsupdateagent30-x64.exe Choose 'Run as administrator' and follow the UAC prompts in order to allow it to run Elevated. Reboot afterwards and see if the system can now search for updates. Microsoft claims that the WUA is successfully updated automatically 98.5% of the time. If you believe that statistic you will also believe that I am going to quarterback the Colts in the Super Bowl.
