| | Windows Update Failures Windows Update utility has worked OK until recently. Whilst I installed patches using it in December, now it continuously fails. I've tried the following: 1) Deleted /windows/softwareDistribution directory 2) Temporarily killed AV protection 3) ran "fsutil resource setautoreset true C:\" and rebooted machine to clear file system transaction log. ....all to no avail. Updates still fail. Anyone have a clue of this?? |

| | RE: Windows Update Failures I would strongly recommend that you do not install these updates. I tried to install these updates and they completely trashed my machine. I have spent just over a week trying to get my PC back to normal Wait until SP1 is released "Iain" wrote: Quote: > Windows Update utility has worked OK until recently.
