Most of the PCs I work on are Win XP Service Pack 2 machines. Just the other day I happened to have two laptops that would not install the Window’s updates after downloading them. When (Google) searching for a solution, I came across a link that solved the problem on both machines. Apparently, all I had to do was re-register the dll files associated with the Windows update process. Here are the files, text, and the links.
This may help fix a corrupt installer:
1. Click on Start and Run,
2. Type "REGSVR32 WUAPI.DLL" (without quotation marks) and press
Enter.
3. Should get the message "DllRegisterServer in WUAPI.DLL succeeded"
Click OK.
4. Repeat above for each of the following:
REGSVR32 WUAUENG1.DLL
REGSVR32 ATL.DLL
REGSVR32 WUPS2.DLL
REGSVR32 WUCLTUI.DLL
REGSVR32 WUPS.DLL
REGSVR32 WUWEB.DLL
REGSVR32 WUAUENG.DLL
5. Reboot
Now try to install your updates.
