Automatic Update Message Pop-up

I have SP2 installed but am seeing multiple messages stating auto update is
experiencing trouble and must shut down. it will not stop popping up. What
the solution?

"tderemer",

I am sorry you are hitting this issue. Let's start with some simple
solutions and work to the more dramatic ones. Let's assume for a moment
that you are using Windows XP (are you using Windows XP?): (Note: Keyboard
keys are labeled with <>, such as <Enter>. Also, combinations of keys mean
to hold the first key or previous key, while then pressing the following
keys. So, <Ctrl>+<S>, means to hold to the <Ctrl> key will pressing the
<S>. That previous example was the shortcut (in most places) for Save.)

1. Click Start
2. Click Run
3. Type: cmd <Enter>
4. After the Command Prompt opens, please type: notepad wuregisterit.cmd
<Enter>
5. Confirm that you wish to create the file
6. Copy and paste the following text between the dotted lines into the new
file, but NOT the dotted lines themselves:
-----------------------------------
NET STOP WUAUSERV
NET STOP BITS
regsvr32 /s cdm.dll
regsvr32 /s bitsprx2.dll
regsvr32 /s bitsprx3.dll
regsvr32 /s iuengine.dll
regsvr32 /s qmgr.dll
regsvr32 /s qmgrprxy.dll
regsvr32 /s msxml.dll
regsvr32 /s msxml2.dll
regsvr32 /s msxml3.dll
regsvr32 /s urlmon.dll
regsvr32 /s wuapi.dll
regsvr32 /s wuaueng.dll
regsvr32 /s wuaueng1.dll
regsvr32 /s wuauserv.dll
regsvr32 /s wucltui.dll
regsvr32 /s wups.dll
regsvr32 /s wuweb.dll

@ echo After registering some libraries...
@ echo \\ Now we are restarting Background Intelligent Transfer Service...
//
NET START BITS
@ echo \\ We are starting up Automatic Updates service... //
NET START WUAUSERV
@ echo \\ Registering a few more files. Please wait a moment... //

regsvr32 /s softpub.dll
regsvr32 /s initpki.dll
regsvr32 /s mssip32.dll
regsvr32 /s wintrust.dll
regsvr32 /s dssenh.dll
regsvr32 /s rsaenh.dll
regsvr32 /s gpkcsp.dll
regsvr32 /s sccbase.dll
regsvr32 /s slbcsp.dll
regsvr32 /s cryptdlg.dll
regsvr32 /s jscript.dll
--------------------------------
7. Save the file by pressing <Ctrl>+<S>
8. Close the file wuregisterit.cmd.
9. In the command window again, please type: wuregisterit.cmd <Enter>
10. Watch for the script to complete and verify that the following four
lines exist in the output:
The Background Intelligent Transfer Service service is starting.
The Background Intelligent Transfer Service service was started
successfully.
The Automatic Updates service is starting.
The Automatic Updates service was started successfully.
11. Open Automatic Updates component
a. (Windows XP and Windows 2000) In the command window, type: control
<Enter> then double-click on Automatic Updates.
b. (Windows Server 2003) Click Start, then Right-click on "My
Computer," then Click the Automatic Updates tab
12. In Automatic Updates, set this to whatever setting is comfortable for
you.

Let us know how this goes!

Sincerely,

Pat Walters [MSFT]
