RE: This IS the solution for error 0x8024401A!

Beste comatose,
dit is de oplossing:
1. in Configuratiescherm>Internet Opties>Verbindingen>Lan Instellingen...
schakel alle vinkjes uit (dus geen instellingen .. overnemen, geen
automatisch configscript, geen proxyserver)
2. in een command prompt venster: proxycfg -d (dit is DIRECT TYPE kiezen)
3. reboot
4. windows update zal werken


In english:
1. disable all check boxes in Internet Explorer Lan settings
(IE>Extra>Options>Connections> Lan Settings button)
2. open a command prompt window and enter proxycfg -d (this activates DIRECT
TYPE proxy setting; verify with proxycfg (without parameters)
3. reboot
4. run windows update


good luck!
Koen

windows update niet.
