well I did a repair to windows XP and found out afterward I should have
uninstalled IE7 [to bad there is not a warning].. Anyway that part is fixed
but I cannot get windows update to work at all - even after trying all the
suggestions. I downloaded the current Windows update software and tried to
install it and obtained this error. If I use IE to update then I get
0x80072EFF. I have installed the latest SCRIPT software, the latest Java
Software, and ensured BIT is turned on, and gone through to ensure the
correct Active X is working etc..... I have XP SP2 and previous to the
Windows repair had SP3. Ideas?

Thx

Hello MDR,

0x8024D007 WU_E_SETUP_REGISTRATION_FAILED
Windows Update Agent could not be updated because regsvr32.exe returned an
error.

The most common cause of error 0x8024D007 is that registry files that
correspond to the Wups2.dll file are missing. However, the problem can also
be caused by other missing registry files. Registering the Wups2.dll file and
the other .dll files that are listed in Method 1 will make sure that those
..dll files are registered correctly in the registry.
