Windows Automatic Updates website reports "Administrators Only" and starting
wuauaserv generates error 126: spcified module not found.

So far, I've done 99% of what I could dig up on the web and on MS Support
sites. The list is huge of what I have done to date. BITS, etc. all other
processes work without problem. I'e gone through and registered all dll's
several times, edited the registry for any missing entries, changed
permissions of all associated processes, ran the update service as
Administrator, re-intalled SP2, etc. Nothing has wokred to date.

So where I'm at now, everytime I start Windows Update service, I revceive
the specified module not found message. What I'm hoping for, is that someone
can point me to where the dll file is that the service is calling in order to
even see if I'm missing a module, and how I would go about reading it.

Below is a lst of things I've done to date - thanks in advance for any help:

Per Support email:

Verify the System component
Click "Start" and "Run", type "REGSVR32 wuapi.DLL" (without quotations) in
the open box and click "OK".

Rename all the Windows Update temporary folders
1. Click "Start", "Run", type: "notepad C:\remove.bat" (without quotations)
and press Enter. Choose "Yes" when you are prompted.
2. Copy the following commands and then paste them into the opened Notepad
window.

net stop wuauserv
net stop CryptSvc
ren %windir%\system32\catroot2 catroot2.old
ren %windir%\SoftwareDistribution sold.old
net start CryptSvc
net start wuauserv

Ran that folder.

Reset Internet Explorer

Collected System Information, sent to support.


Reregister the Msinfo32.dll file. To do this, follow these steps:
a. Click Start, click Run, type Regsvr32 "c:\program files\common
files\microsoft shared\msinfo\msinfo32.dll"
File exists - receive error:
module not found.
Also did the above within the :Program Files (86)" directory. Same results
as above.

Make sure that Task Scheduler works. If you still experience the problem,
reregister the Schedsvc.dll file. To do this, follow these steps:
a. Click Start, click Run, type Regsvr32 "%SystemRoot%\System32\
schedsvc.dll", and then click OK.
file exists - receive error:
module not found.

Microsoft Windows Support Professional

When running the command the first time, It was looking for file wwuapi.dll
from SP2 CD-ROM. I could not locate it on the OS install software w/ SP2
included, nor was it anywhere on the Internet. I had to cancel the process
in lieu of continuing without the file, as I'm looking at the steps ahead and
do not see that file included.
Per instructions, there is no path C:\Windows\ServicePackFiles\i386 on my
machine. The files wwuapi.dll and wwups.dll are not located in the above
directory or C:\Windows\System32.
When running the command a second time, the file wuapi.dll is needed from
SP2 CD-ROM (C:\WINODOWS\inf\amd64). I gave it the one on the CD-ROM. The
process window closed, and I've no clue if it completed succedssfully.

Registering files failed - REGSVR32 WUAUENG1.DLL (module not found).
5.7.3790.3959 Copied this file from Internet to System32 and SystemWOW64
directories, tried to register file and received "...not an executable file
and no registration helper is registered for this file type."

I'm an IDIOT!

cd %windir%\system32 - then registered following files:

• Regsvr32 Jscript.dll
• Regsvr32 Msxml3.dll
• Regsvr32 Atl.dll
• Regsvr32 Wuapi.dll
• Regsvr32 Wuaueng.dll
• Regsvr32 Wuaueng1.dll
• Regsvr32 Wucltui.dll
• Regsvr32 Wups.dll
• Regsvr32 Wuweb.dll

Rename the SoftwareDistribution folder. To do this, follow these steps:
a. Click Start, click Run, type %windir%, and then click OK.

Note The %windir% folder is the folder where you installed Microsoft Windows.
b. Locate the SoftwareDistribution folder.
c. Right-click the SoftwareDistribution folder, and then click Rename.
d. Type OldSD, and then press ENTER.
4. Start the Automatic Updates service and the BITS service. To do this,
follow these steps:
a. Click Start, click Run, type services.msc, and then click OK.
b. In the list of services, right-click Automatic Updates, and then click
Properties.
c. In the Automatic Updates Properties dialog box, click the General tab,
click Start, and then click OK.
d. In the list of services, right-click Background Intelligent Transfer
Service, and then click Properties.
e. In the Background Intelligent Transfer Service Properties dialog box,
click the General tab, click Start, and then click OK.

AutoUpdate fails - same error 126.

cd %windir%\sysWOW64 - then registered following files - all OK except as
noted below:

• Regsvr32 Jscript.dll
• Regsvr32 Msxml3.dll
• Regsvr32 Atl.dll
• Regsvr32 Wuapi.dll
• Regsvr32 Wuaueng.dll
• Regsvr32 Wuaueng1.dll
• Regsvr32 Wucltui.dll - module not found
• Regsvr32 Wups.dll
• Regsvr32 Wuweb.dll

added BITS and wuauserv entries to
HKEY_Local_Machine\Software\Microsoft\WindowsNT\CurrentVersion\SvcHost.
Rebooted.

nope.

%SystemRoot%\System32\rundll32.exe setupapi,InstallHinfSection

still stuck.
 
Re: Windows Update & wuauserv fail

This page:
http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/...f5-6e3b-4e0d-9314-646414d0a421&DisplayLang=en

Shows a download for Windows Server 2003 Service Pack 2 for x64 Editions
when you've plainly stated that this is Windows XP Pro x64.

Why would that be recommended and how did it install ?

Which Service Pack level is the system at now ?
Go to Start > Run > type in

msinfo32

Click OK or press Enter
Under Item, the second one states which SP level the system is now at.

The 'tech' never inquired as to the antivirus/security software installed ?

* WHAT is the installed antivirus/security suite; is a 3rd party
firewall being used; what are the installed add-ons/toolbars ? *

Windows Update & wuauserv fail - MowGreen [MVP]

Windows Update & wuauserv fail - MowGreen [MVP]

I've received a few more procedures to follow from MS Support, but they haven't resolved anything. In fact, they made it worse by going backwards. I now receive Error 126 - specified module not found, when starting the Win Auto Upd Svc.

Error logs:

2008-09-20 10:58:25-0400 1092 45c WUCheckForUpdatesAtShutdown failed, hr=8024000C
2008-09-20 10:58:33-0400 368 b90 WUAutoUpdateAtShutdown failed, hr=8024000C

No clue why they directed me to that download.

I'm on SP2 - msinfo does not work now as I receive Error 1083 when starting the Help and Support service - thanks MS Spt.!

It would not allow me to install the 32-bit version of that update. 64-bit version is in.

Antivirus is Spyware Detector, I'm only running Windows Firewall and whatever TWC uses. I've tried updates with the AV software disabled, but the problem lies with wuauaserve.

Updates are installed using the 32-bit version IE, which I keep with minimal addons enabled. Currently they are Flash9f, SSVHelper Class (Sun), and Sun Java Console, nothing else.

I can most likely resolve the DLL issue again as I have done previously, but that only gets me to the Error 1053 - service taking too long to start, again.

AFAIK, Spyware Detector is, at worst, rogue anti-spyware betrayware. At
best, it scans the system quickly " but speed is the product's only
virtue. It can't remove spyware as well as the best standalone products,
and it offers little protection against spyware installation on a clean
system. "
http://www.pcmag.com/article2/0,2817,2073458,00.asp

*Strongly* suggest you uninstall it, reboot, and see if the system can
update. Replace it with an *antivirus*, like Avast. Avast is compatible
with any Windows OS [it needs a few tweaks to run in Win ME}.

*Prior* to installing Avast [or, whichever AV you choose], suggest you
attempt running the AU Check Tool:
http://www.codeplex.com/aureset/Release/ProjectReleases.aspx?ReleaseId=17263

Download and *save* it. Once the download completes, close all open
programs and browsers.
Then, with the system connected to the net/network, run
au_check_v78_codeplex.exe. Reboot.
Can the system update now ?

BTW, what is " TWC " ?
