| Vista Ultimate X64 | Windows Update Error 80070424 Hey Guys, I need a little help. Whenever I turn on my laptop i get the windows security error popup thingy saying that automatic updates are switched off. When I try to enable it I get this error: Windows Update encountered an unknown error. The code of the error is 80070424. I have tried various fixes such as running REGSVR32 %SYSTEMROOT%\SYSTEM32\WUAUENG.DLL and regsvr32.exe wuaueng.dll, but these only last until i restart my laptop. Please Help Me. Is There A Permanent Fix??? Thanks a lot Super_JS |

| Vista Ultimate X64 | Re: Windows Update Error 80070424 I Have followed these steps: Click Start >> Run >> Type the follow command in the Open box. "net.exe stop wuauserv" (w/o quotes) Press Ok Repeat the same for the following commands: regsvr32.exe wuapi.dll regsvr32.exe wups.dll regsvr32.exe wuaueng.dll regsvr32.exe wucltui.dll regsvr32.exe MSXML3.dll regsvr32.exe qmgr.dll regsvr32.exe qmgrprxy.dll net.exe start wuauserv But regsvr32.exe wucltui.dll and regsvr32.exe qmgr.dll failed. I will restart and see if there is any change. |
