  I quote Maurice N ~ MVP - a regular contributor here:

  This give a try.

  The following services are required by the Windows Update process.

  In the services (services.msc) management console may NOT be * Disabled * in the startup type.

  They show a manual or automatic startup type.

  Here are services and their startup types:

• Unable to access updates for windows xp home edition (sp3) via "Fix - it", Windows Update or Microsoft Update and Windows Update

  Hello

  I have download a new download "Fix - it"; all the convenience of work with the exception of "Windows Update".  Also I went through self-help suggestions in "go-microsoft", but nothing helped.  I also tried the "cmd" method (i.e.: start, run, cmd and then copy and paste each .dll for windows update); 1 a .dll could not be found, and two other 2 couldn't register.  After Windows Update represented existing 'cmd' method, I then, well my system recognized the appropriate software update and allowed me to press the 'Express' butotn to an update of high priority for installation (e.g.: Cumulative Security Update for Windows XP...) Sorry, but I forgot the KB #), unfortunately, he could not install, then I ran Windows Update again and pressed the 'Custom' button and three 3 software update optional appeared, as well as an XP update.  Once again, all the selected custom updates has not installed.  I am therefore at a disadvantage as to how I can access necessary security updates for my computer and would appreciate contact me promptly to address this urgent problem.  Thank you much in advance - arldarl

  Hello Tommy.

  Thanks for sharing the information above to remedy my Windows Update and please accept my apologies for my being too general with my question.

  After many hours of running the programs above, SuperAntivirus found 1 an Adware and 55 Tracking Cookies; MalwareBytes found 1 1 that a horse of Troy, and EsET found Trojan horse more!  My computer is vulnerable, so 'thank you '... I would never have known to load/run these particular l, and nor would I knew I had these TAPI problems in my computer.

  After several attempts of installing/re-installing 'Fix - it' (i.e.: deletion of multiple copies associated with my Microsoft Online ID), I was unable to make progress, so I ended up check my Services and found BITS to be set up as 'Network' instead of 'Local '.  I made this change, Windows Update, and the Cumulative Update has began to download - finally!

  I suspect that any of your suggestions, and my little trick got Windows Update to work?

  Thanks a lot a lot - arldarl

  PS This switch to Win7 Professional would help the situation?

  I should add that it is a slipstreamed SP1 version. I was able to get IE 11 installed without problem.

  Theres been a few problems with Windows Update with Windows 7 clean install for these last months... You can use the WSUS Offline Update Patch Windows 7, after that Windows Update works.

  http://dellwindowsreinstallationguide.com/WSUS-offline-update/

  However since your goal is to make your system a Pro 10 Windows device. You better just download an .iso Windows 10 TH2 and pure install directly with your Windows 7 Ultimate product key:
