  1. There is no qmgr*.dat anywhere on my computer


    I am attempting to follow the steps found hereto reset windows update components. The first step is to stop bits and windows update service, and to delete the file "qmgr*.dat*


    Here is my command prompt:


    Microsoft Windows [Version 10.0.17134.677]
    (c) 2018 Microsoft Corporation. All rights reserved.

    C:\Windows\system32>net stop bits
    The Background Intelligent Transfer Service service is stopping..
    The Background Intelligent Transfer Service service was stopped successfully.


    C:\Windows\system32>net stop wuauserv
    The Windows Update service is stopping.
    The Windows Update service was stopped successfully.


    C:\Windows\system32>Del "%ALLUSERSPROFILE%\Application Data\Microsoft\Network\Downloader\qmgr*.dat"
    Could Not Find C:\ProgramData\Application Data\Microsoft\Network\Downloader\qmgr*.dat

    C:\Windows\system32>dir /s /a /b /p C:\qmgr*.dat
    File Not Found

    C:\Windows\system32>


    As you can see, at first it could not find it in the directory specified in the microsoft guide. When I attempted to find the directory myself, I found that I have no folder called Application Data in my ProgramData folder. I found another post which mentioned that the qmgr.dat might be somewhere else, so I next did the "dir /s /a /b /p C:\qmgr*.dat" command, which as you can see resulted in the qmgr.dat file not being found anywhere.


    What does this mean? The guide does say to delete this file, but the fact that it didn't exist to begin with makes me dubious as to whether or not I should continue to follow the guide as it is or if there is some deeper problem that I need to fix first.

  2. Windows 10 Pro, ver 1709, build 16299.192 will not update on KB4093112

    Did not help - appears to be the same batch file as I had already run, although the 10Forum version reported:
    Successfully flushed the DNS Resolver Cache.

    Could Not Find C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\Network\Downloader\qmgr*.dat

    Could Not Find C:\ProgramData\ApplicationData\Microsoft\Network\Downloader\qmgr*.dat

    My \Program Data\ does not have \ApplicationData\ sub-Dir but in the C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\Network\Downloader\qmgr*.dat appears possibly replaced by qmgr*.db

    Could this be so? even significant?

    Next step is to try Andre Da Costa's suggestions. At the moment nothing updates, but KB4093112 constantly retries - using mobs of bandwith and computer down-time

  3. Feature update to Windows 10, version 1709 - Error 0x80242006

    Step 3. Delete the qmgr*.dat files. To do this, at a command prompt, type the following command, and then press Enter:

    Del "%ALLUSERSPROFILE%\Application Data\Microsoft\Network\Downloader\qmgr*.dat"

    For my computer, no path could be found.

    Also on a few of the steps prior to this when I tried to "stop the BITS" it told me the service could not be stopped.

    Reset Windows Update in Windows 10  


    Shawn / Brink,

    1 In the batch file, the path to the qmgr files does not exist [KB971058 has not been changed, it still points to this path]
    "%ALLUSERSPROFILE%\Application Data\Microsoft\Network\Downloader\qmgr*.dat"
    but this one does
    "%ALLUSERSPROFILE%\Microsoft\Network\Downloader\qmgr*.dat"

    2 Similarly, I cannot find this file anywhere [I included checking on a computer that had items listed in its download queue at Settings, Update]
    "%SYSTEMROOT%\winsxs\pending.xml

    Any ideas?
