  1. Windows Update no longer works after 1903 update successfully installed.


    I've been upgrading computers to 1903 in our company. Most of them have updated successfully. But a small handful will no longer run Windows Update. The error message is: "Error Encountered. We ran into a problem while connecting to the Windows Update service. We'll try to connect again later, or you can select Retry now."


    I have run the Windows Update troubleshooter. It claims to find issues and fix them, but it doesn't fix the problem.

    I have also tried everything in this article, short of re-imaging the computer:

    https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/help/10164/fix-windows-update-errors

    The problem seems random, as it has happened even with re-imaged computers. There doesn't seem to be a correlation with a certain brand or model (it has happened on several different models of Dell laptops and an HP laptop).


    I have tried running a Disk Cleanup to clean up all of the Windows Update files. I've even gone as far as deleting the c:\Windows\SoftwareDistribution folder.


    One of the computers having the issue was upgraded to 1903 using the ISO, while the others were upgraded with Windows Update.


    In one case a computer having the issue was re-imaged, upgraded to 1903, and Windows Update worked fine. In another, after a re-image, the problem still occurred.


    I'm at a loss for why this is occurring on just a few of our computers.

    I'm not sure how differant XP media center Edition is but you could clear the history \ cache if these folders are there.

    Step 1 Register DLL files.

    =================

    By trying this step, we can check if the update engines are working properly.



    1. Close all instances of Internet Explorer.

    2. Click Start and Run, type "Regsvr32 atl.dll" (without quotes) in the Open box and click OK.



    Note: There is a space between regsvr32 and atl.dll



    3. Similarly, one by one, register the files listed below:



    Regsvr32 msxml3.dll

    Regsvr32 wuapi.dll

    Regsvr32 wuaueng.dll

    Regsvr32 wuaueng1.dll

    Regsvr32 wups2.dll

    Regsvr32 wucltui.dll

    Regsvr32 wups.dll

    Regsvr32 wuweb.dll

    Regsvr32 qmgr.dll

    Regsvr32 qmgrprxy.dll

    Regsvr32 jscript.dll



    Note: If you encounter errors while registering any of these files then skip that file and continue with the next one.



    If the issue persists, let's move on to the steps below to verify Windows Update services and temporary folders.



    Step 2 Verify the relevant Windows Update services.

    =========================================

    1. Click Start->Run, type "services.msc" (without quotation marks) in the open box and click OK.

    2. Double click the service "Automatic Updates".

    3. Click on the Log On tab, please ensure the option "Local System account" is selected and the option "Allow service to interact with desktop" is unchecked.

    4. Check if this service has been enabled on the listed Hardware Profile. If not, please click the Enable button to enable it.

    5. Click on the tab "General "; make sure the "Startup Type" is "Automatic" or "Manual". Then please click the button "Stop" under "Service Status" to stop the service.

    6. Then please click the button "Start" under "Service Status" to start the service.

    7. Please repeat the above steps with the other services:



    Background Intelligent Transfer Service

    Event Log

    Remote Procedure Call (RPC)



    Note: Event log service is enabled on all of the hardware profiles; this service does not have an option to enable or disable on certain hardware profile.



    If it still does not help, let's proceed to step 3.



    Step 3 Reload the Update temporary folders.

    ===================================

    One possible cause is that the temporary folder for Windows Update is containing corrupted files. Let's erase all the files there to get the system clean.



    1. Click Start, Run, type: cmd and press Enter. Please run the following command in the opened window.



    Net stop WuAuServ



    2. Click Start, Run, type: %windir% and press Enter.

    3. In the opened folder, rename the folder SoftwareDistribution to Sdold.

    4. Click Start, Run, type: cmd and press Enter. Please run the following command in the opened window.



    Net start WuAuServ



    Please test the Windows Update website and let me know the result. If the issue persists, to clarify the issue and provide more accurate troubleshooting steps, please assist me in collecting the following information.
