  • Failed to update Windows XP SP3: error 127

    Recently, a friends PC has been visited by a technology professional and, since then, then the Windows Update has been disabled.

    The service proved not be is not running. You try to start the service using
    net start wuauserv
    Translated by error 127: the specified procedure could not be found

    Go to control panel-> system control > automatic update has the option there not selectable (disabled).
    I have only checked for malware using the tool provided by Microsoft as a possible solution, no threats were found.
    In addition to the above, I did the following:
    1. Re-installed SP3 - no effect
    2. I tried Microsoft FixIt: said problem detected: However, it does not fix it. It says Windows Update directory is different from the default
    3. Tried all the suggestion as indicate in How to reset the Windows Update components?. Steps 6 fully working mode without fail only. End result was without effect
    4. Install the latest Windows Update Agent has generated an error.
    5. "Chat" used Customer Support service. Was directed to call the technical assistance.
    Any ideas on how to solve this problem?

    Concerning
    J

    Sorry for the explanation of front light, slammed other work...  I finished by comparing the service wuauserv with an unaffected system registry keys and replacing the values and remove the extra keys that should not exist.  I did not keep track of all the destruction, sorry.  the main keys are found at HKLM\CurrentControlSet\Services\wuauserv

    and the subkeys

    I will try to upload a picture or a link to a picture of what these key should look like for most of the systems later.  (use at your own risk because each system may be slightly different)

    just be careful to change your registry database - make backups of critical files.

    before I did I also deleted and restored all files that begin with "wu" in the windows\system32 folder from another computer.  (Windows should automatically restore all files, but does not restore the wups2.dll file in my case)  (maybe to stop the BITS service before you can delete the files.)

    and after the reinstatement of wups2, everything worked normally.

    Looks like some maleware attack those keys / files

    the registry keys I've seen actually called maleware the wuauserv service files.  so when I cleaned the computer he deleted these files and thus broke the wuauserv service, until I put the service back to normal.

Even after the withdrawal of the unit and uninsatalling this error repeatedly, and update windows 10 is not coming. How to remove this error and how to install the printer without this problem?

    Hi @tstyam,

    Thank you for showing your interest in the HP Forums!

    I understand that you are experiencing this error "Hewlett-Packard - Company WSD multifunction printer, MFP, other materials - Null Print - 5660 HP ENVY series - error 0x800f020b". I'd be happy to help you with this.

    It seems that there is a driver on the computer. If you have just installed Windows or a device and the Device Manager has 'Unknown devices' or 'other devices '. This means that they are in a State of error or without no driver installed.

    To resolve this issue, remove the "unknown device" or "Other devices" and run Windows Update to fix the problem.

    1. Go to settings, then select devices.
    2. Click on connected devices.
    3. Click on Device Manager.
    4. Open Printers and then uninstall/remove/delete the "unknown device".
    5. Open the devices and then uninstall/remove/delete the "unknown device".
    6. Launch Windows Update to correct the problem.
