I have Windows XP Pro SP3. When I click on Windows Update in Control Panel, a window pops up saying "Application Not Found". I looked for "wuapp.exe" under WINDOWS/System32 directory and it is not there.  So, I do see Somehow it must have been deleted. I

have setup automatic update for windows and system tray does show available updates. When I try doing the update via that notification update fails. I am guessing it must be due to the missing the "wuapp.exe" file. The problem started about a month ago. Any

guidance is appreciated.

 

Regards,
