My windows wont update it comes up with this code, and i ive tried
numerous 'solutions' that didnt work including"

1) REGSVR32 %SYSTEMROOT%\SYSTEM32\WUAUENG.DLL - Didnt work comes up
with: The module "C:\Windows\SYSTEM32\WUAUENG.DLL" was loaded but the
call to DllRegisterServer failed with error code 0x80070005

3) The BiTs restore tool thing, the one that repairs if it's corrupted
or something - it said it's not needed currently so I'm assuming my
files for Windows Update/BiTs aren't damaged in any way.

4) regsvr32.exe wuaueng.dll - Same error code as above

Hi,

When running the regsvr32 commands, are you doing so from an elevated
command prompt? If not, you need to be. The error code tells us you have
insufficient privileges to complete the command, and this is usually due to
running them from a standard command or run prompt. Click start, type cmd,
then right click the menu entry and choose 'run as administrator'. Then run
the regsvr32 commands from here.

Thanks for replying Rick Rogers. I have a new problem my cmd.exe is
missing. I assume it was deleted or corrupted from a recent attack of a
worm.

I am posting to you a few options. Might want to try them one by one. Number 1 is
the one that I am betting on. If it is and you fix it then jump first to step 4 and
then if you need to then do step 2 and if not then and only then do step 3


0x80070424 = ERROR_SERVICE_DOES_NOT_EXIST


(1)

Ensure you do not have "Vundo". Clean it up if you do.

It seems possible that your Windows installation has been deliberately
damaged by a trojan (Vundo, along any uninvited guests. (SDBot and ZLOB, all
protected by a rootkit.)) so as to prevent you updating your system or
removing the trojan.

Your first priority must be to cleanse your PC of all malware.

A very good antimalware app is SUPERAntiSpyware.

There is a free version (on demand scanning only), the paid for version
includes active monitoring, similar to Windows defender:
http://www.superantispyware.com/

Can't fix BITS - Windows Update
http://www.microsoft.com/communities...9-78997305deff


(2)

Give this a try and see if it solves the problem..............

Go to Start>Run and key in:
regsvr32 wuaueng.dll
Click on OK or hit ENTER, wait a few seconds, then click on OK in the
RegSvr32 dialogue box.
Now, open the registry editor (Start>Run key in regedit then click on OK or
hit ENTER)
Navigate to:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Servic es\wuauserv
Look for a DeleteFlag value and, if it exists, right-click on it and select
Delete.

(3)
Now see if if you can successfully update.
If not, then:

Go to Start>Run and key in:
net stop wuauserv
Then click on OK or hit ENTER
When the Automatic Updates service has stopped, use My Computer or Windows
Explorer to navigate to the C:\Windows or C:\WINNT (if C:\Windows does not
exist) folder. Rename the SoftwareDistribution folder to SDOLD
Go to Start>Run and key in:
net start wuauserv
Then click on OK or hit ENTER

Now try the Windows Update site and see if the error has been resolved.

(4)

Have a look at this articles. It may be relevant to your problem.

The above explanation was for a previous Version of BITS but, there has been
an update for BITS since Vista came out.
<http://support.microsoft.com/kb/939159>

Is BITS disabled ? It can be set to Manual and the system will update
successfully but, will not update if BITS is Disabled.
Suggest you run the BITS Repair Tool to see if that helps resolve the issue
after installing the update for it:

And run a Command: sfc /scannow
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/929833

Try Malwarebytes as well.
http://www.malwarebytes.org/mbam.php

Malwarebytes is as the name says, a Malware Remover!
For the Free version scroll down their page to either download from
Download.com, or Major Geeks.com

Download, install, and update.

Important re: Safe Mode
If you happen to find a problem that you can’t uninstall / delete, reboot
the computer, and go into Safe Mode.
To get into Safe mode, tap F8 right at Power On / Startup, and use UP arrow
key to get to Safe Mode from list of options, then hit ENTER.
RESCAN your computer with your Anti-Virus, Malwarebytes and Spybot S & D
while in Safe Mode.

If unable to install above Programs in Normal Mode:
Sometimes Trojans, Viruses, Malware, etc stop you installing and/or updating
Programs to remove them.
If that happens, reboot into Safe Mode with Networking, and install, update
and scan from there.
