You receive error message 0x80070003 when you try to update Windows from the Windows
Update Web site

http://www.jsiinc.com/SUBQ/tip8000/rh8024.htm
When you attempt to update Windows XP from the Windows Update Web site, you receive
error 0x80070003?

0x80070003 = COR_E_DIRECTORYNOTFOUND
The specified path couldn't be found - ALLUSERSPROFILE Microsoft network dir doesn’t
exist


Make sure the following folders exist under %windir%\SoftwareDistribution\
Note: (%windir% = C:\Windows)

DataStore\
Download\
EventCache\
SelfUpdate\
WebSetup\
WuRedir\

You may need to clear the contents of the Datastore and Download folders.

“


If the above doesn’t assist, suggestion by Torgeir Bakken (MVP)

If the directory "%ALLUSERSPROFILE%\Application Data\Microsoft\Network"
does not exist, you will get this error.

%ALLUSERSPROFILE% is normally "C:\Documents and Settings\All Users"

To verify existence/create this folder, you can do like this:

Press Start/Run, and fill in this:

"%ALLUSERSPROFILE%\Application Data\Microsoft"

Press OK, and the Microsoft folder will open.

If no Network folder is found there, create it (File\New --> Folder).
