Windows Update and Automatic Updates Errors

When I try to use microsoft windows updates it comes up with the error [Error
number: 0x8007043B] The website has encountered a problem and cannot display
the page you are trying to view.I have followed the instructions on how to
solve this by when I try to start Automatic Updates I get the following error
message... "Could not start the Automatic Updates service on Local Computer.
Error 1083: The executable program that this service is configured to run in
does not implement the service."

I have tried to restart my computer and disable and then enable Automatic
Updates, but I continue to get this error message. How can I stop this
problem, as I want to update my computer.

Please Help!

I am having the exact same problem.

I had SP2 till today, when I decided to repair my Windows XP installation by
inserting the Windows XP CD (I have problems restarting the computer with
SP2, but that's a different issue).

When I go to the Windows Update Site, I get the error:
Error number: 0x8007043B]

I found a solution to the above problem finally:

Look on
http://www.updatexp.com/0x8007043b.html

and there are 3 resolutions given. Try the last one, and if it doesn't work
(it didn't for me), try the first one (which worked for me).

Hi,
I'm getting the same symptoms but none of the three fixes worked. Still get
the 1083 when trying to start wuauserv.

Any other ides, please?

<extract>

The executable program that this service is configured to run in
does not implement the service.
</extract>


Try another two commands then and capture their outputs for us:

sc qc wuauserv

and

sc queryex wuauserv
