Microsoft Update error code: 0x80072F78

I am running Windows XP service pace 3 with internet 8.

When I download updates, I get this error 0x8xx72F78 Code.

I used Mr. Fixit and which did nothing

I can't find a result that worked as there seems to be a few people with this problem, but no real answers.

Hello

Were there any changes made on the computer before the show?

See the article and check if that helps:

    Received the Windows Update error Code 646 & dt000 does not allow the following 2 updates be installed (KB976382 KB981725) what I need to do.

    Sorry, you have problems getting your patches installed. I have a number of things for you to look at.  First of all, yourBackground Intelligent Transfer Services set toAutomaticand started and Windows Update ? They both should be started. You can check these settings by typing services.msc in the search box of the start menu.

    Sometimes in order to get patches to install correctly, you must perform these tasks manually. Click each of the links below and click on download and run.  You must accept the agreement and then click on continue.

    KB976382

    KB981725

    If this does not work, try to run the Microsoft OneCare safety scanner.  Sometimes it will solve problems of hidden registry, or can clear the virus that can prevent the installation of the patches: http://onecare.live.com/site/en-us/center/whatsnew.htm. Click full service scan, and thenQuick scan (full scan takes a long time to complete). Try the patches.
