I love thee for the lack of meaningful error messages.

I love thee for the confusing and misleading naming scheme of updates.

I love thee for publishing network driver updates that take down whole sites.

But most of all, I love thee for thy ways of fucking up thyself to such a degree that even your sheepherds doesn’t know what to do.

If you ever encounter a windows xp boxen that refuses to install updates, even though it finds and downloads them, then the following is for you. Turns out, MS isn’t really aware what their doing nor how they are doing it. To repair windows update, you’ll have to run the following commands (just copy/paste to a cmd-window):

regsvr32 /s wuapi.dll  

regsvr32 /s wuaueng1.dll  

regsvr32 /s wuaueng.dll  

regsvr32 /s wucltui.dll  

regsvr32 /s wups2.dll  

regsvr32 /s wups.dll  

regsvr32 /s wuweb.dll
