Recommended Posts

For the last five days, every time I shut down my computer it tells me

updates are waiting to be processed. Every time I process them & it shuts

down; but next time, it says there are 2 updates waiting to be processed

again. Is it usual to get this many updates, or is something else going on?

Manually check winupdates & review your update history for failed updates

That is use the program to remove the program that is not updating AKA:

net framework 1.1 and reinstall whatever is not updating, then try the

updates again

RE: Windows XP updates too frequent

 

1. Close all instances of Internet Explorer.

2. Click Start and Run, type "REGSVR32 ATL.DLL" (without quotes) in the open

box and click OK.

 

 

 

Note: There is a space between REGSVR32 and ATL.DLL

 

 

 

3. Similarly, one by one, register the files listed below:

 

 

 

REGSVR32 MSXML3.DLL

REGSVR32 WUAPI.DLL

REGSVR32 WUAUENG.DLL

REGSVR32 WUAUENG1.DLL

REGSVR32 WUPS2.DLL

REGSVR32 WUCLTUI.DLL

REGSVR32 WUPS.DLL

REGSVR32 WUWEB.DLL

REGSVR32 QMGR.DLL

REGSVR32 QMGRPRXY.DLL

REGSVR32 JSCRIPT.DLL

 

 

 

Note: Please try and register all the files. While registering each .DLL

file you should get a "succeeded" message. If you encounter any error

message, please let me know the exact wording.
