delete the value "NoWindowsUpdate" if it exist.

Under the registry key
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\Curre ntVersion\Policies\Windows Update

If the above values were not found:

Do a registry search (in regedit.exe, be sure to have "My Computer" selected when starting
each search)) for registry values with name

NoWindowsUpdate
