The problem is in that there are two .dat files where they shouldn't be. I
don't know why that is causing the trouble but it was very annoying until I
came across the answer posted here:

"This was the third newsgroup I have posted to and this has become a bit of a
sore point. I started in the Windows Vista installation/setup newsgroup. No
answer for over a month (so much for the Microsoft TechNet subscriber
With this error, BITS starts and immediately stops. BitsAdmin does not work
in this scenario under Vista.
I did however STUMBLE upon a fix working on another issue. I have not found
a KB article that describes the fix. I had to restart Vista using the safe
boot/Minimal option and then delete Qmgr*.dat files. Deleting the files
under a normal boot did not work. On my nect normal boot, Windows Update and
BITS functioned properly.
I have found that most of the BITS fixes a Windows XP/200x. That is to be
expected, BUT, pointing Vista users to those fixes has been an excercise in
frustration (as well as fixing the "fixes")."
It worked for me.
