Courtesy of Domenic:-
Go to Control Panel > Administrative Tools > Services and check if Windows Installer
is running. If not, turn it on. Doing this solved error 8024401B on my computer.

Error 0x80072EE2 is: ERROR_INTERNET_TIMEOUT
Translation: The request has timed out.

When accessing the Update site, you receive the 0x80072EE2 or 0x80072EFD error.

<snip of relevant part> I was getting the 0x80072EE2 message on a machine this
evening. I never had a problem with it.

I tried all of your suggestions to no avail. However, in a post from several months
ago, someone mentioned an MTU seating on a router. I had upgraded the firmware on my
home router several days ago and left the MTU set at the default of 1500. Come to
think of it, my Internet connection seemed a little sluggish since I upgraded the
firmware.

I reset the MTU to 1492, and voila! Windows Update works again.

I write this post so that someone else doesn't overlook a simple solution to a very
frustrating problem.

Router / Firewall / Wireless Router MTU ==> 1492 or less <snip>

Result posted by “tinman”
<snip> The problem is with the AOL connection. Basically you need to amend the MTU
settings of the WAN down to 1400. You can experiment and see if it works going up to
1460 but it doesn't work past that. <snip>
