Note that if it says "Install is not needed since Windows Update Agent
is already installed.", run the exe with the command line switch
/wuforce, like this:

WindowsUpdateAgent20-x86.exe /wuforce

Hi,

Some have posted that registering MSXML3.DLL fixed this problem.

Register MSXML3.DLL and see if it helps:

1. Click Start.

2. Choose Run.

3. In the Run box, type (or copy/paste from this post)

%windir%\system32\regsvr32.exe %windir%\system32\MSXML3.DLL

(note the space there in the middle)

4. Click OK.

New reply to an old problem. I have a Pavilian that I restored the original
system on. IE closd while it was downloading windows updates. It now says
"Files required to use Windows Update are no longer registered"
I have run the regsrv32 files you show, as well as
http://download.windowsupdate.com/v6...gent20-x86.exe
When I ran regsvr32 wuauserv.dll it said "wuauserv.dll was loaded, but the
DllRegisterServer entry point was not found. This file can not be
registered."
Any suggestions? Or should I just do the factory restore again and hope for
the best?
thanks

Download the Windows Update Agent and install it
Updates are not installed successfully from Windows Update, from Microsoft
Update, or by using Automatic Updates after you perform a new Windows XP
installation or you repair a Windows XP installation
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/943144

Just in case you need it from Robear Dyer MVP-

"You will not be able to update the WinXP computer via Windows Update or
Automatic Updates unless and until SP2 or SP3 is installed.

HOW TO get a computer running WinXP SP1(a) or SP2 fully patched (after a
clean install)
http://groups.google.com/group/micro...66ae41add7dd2b

NB: Computers running WinXP SP2 will NOT be offered any further critical
