windows 7 update error 80070026

<< < (2/2)

vinyarddog:
sorry - will attach log now -

Here are some steps I have gone through today

ran FixWU V1.0 from the windows club
ran RKill from bleepingcomputer
ran windows update standalone installer
ran windows update troubleshooter from a clean boot
uninstalled most recent updates
tried to uninstall SP1
ran Microsoft FixIt
renamed windows file SoftwareDistribution , made sure not hidden or read only

still does not work

Shane:
Then a repair install would be the way to go. This way you can keep all your programs and files.

You will need a Windows 7 cd with SP1 already on it, you can get it here

Then give this a go :-)

Done and done (fixed) - I thank you so much for being so generous with your time. That was the obvious solution. It's funny because it is the solution I chose for a laptop with similar updating issues at work last month. Again , I thank you for showing me the correct path.

Shane:
No problem :-)

Locking thread :wink:

And as always...
If your happy with my work. Then all I ask in return is you simply let others know about my site and programs. I help with anything computer or network related :-)
Also always feel free to make a post in the feedback forum.
And a facebook like at the top of the page of my site is nice as well. ;)
