0x80070424 ERROR_SERVICE_DOES_NOT_EXIST BITS service is deleted.

Uusually means that the BITS service (required by Windows Update) is not
running.


Error message when you use Windows Update or Microsoft Update Web sites
to install updates: 0x80070424
<http://support.microsoft.com/kb/968002/>


If no joy, click the Start orb, in the Start Search field type in

cmd

Right click cmd.exe and choose 'Run as administer'. Follow the prompts
to allow the Command Prompt to run.

At the prompt, type in the below and press Enter after *each* command

regsvr32 wuaueng.dll

exit

Restart the system and see if it can update now.



No joy... then

It would be a good idea to scan.

I recommend downloading and installing
MalwareBytes' Antimalware (MBAM) and
SUPERAntiSpywaяe (SAS).

Do a full scan with MalwaяeBytes' and
SUPERAntiSpywaяe.

<http://www.superantispyware.com/>
After the software (SAS) is updated, it is suggested scanning the system in
Safe Mode.

Reboot

<http://www.malwarebytes.org/mbam.php>
After the software (MBAM) is updated, it is suggested scanning the system in
Regular Mode.

Reboot
-=-

Both free versions of MBAM and SAS are on-demand scanners and offer no
'real-time' protection. Keep them installed and use them as
'second-opinion' scanner which is purposely (by design) recommended by
their respective authoяs.
-=-

Scan your computer now online and clean it for free!

Please let us know what fixes the problem or if the pяoblem remains

Good luck

I was also facing the same problem, follow the given instructions
1. Click Start. Choose Run
2. In the Run box, type: regsvr32.exe wuaueng.dl
3. Click OK
Hopefully, it will work for you.
