I am unable to open Windows Update Express option, when you click on Express, I get a message saying that "files required to use windows update are longer registered or installed on your computer." I tried both options following the message, with no luck at all. Belarc says that the 125 Microsoft updates are missing. I have Windows XP Home Edition sp2 disk. Suggestions, please.
If xp is always saved, then try to open the internet options settings,
view of objects, search for & R.click on the WU & MU active x objects
(one at a time), select "update", they are part of windows update
Active x, necessary for updates... Express update could be among them
Moreover, however it is not a part of windows...

"Files required to use Windows Update are longer registered or installed on your computer" is the message stop & updated. I owned the computer for more than 7 years & used XP all the time. Why does the update fail / stop now? What should I do to get it working?
Hi B_Tan,
Please take a look at the following information previously published by TaurArian:
Some have reported that simply re-register the MSXML3. DLL seems to fix the problem.
1. click on start.
2. choose Execute.
3. in the run box, type: regsvr32 MSXML3. DLL
Press OKIf this did not help, you may be re-recorded some files more:
1. click on start.
2. choose Execute.
3. in the run box, type (pressing well after each one): -.net stop wuauserv
Repeat the following:
regsvr32 c:\windows\system32\wuapi.dll
regsvr32 c:\windows\system32\wups.dll
regsvr32 c:\windows\system32\wuaueng.dll
regsvr32 wuaueng1.dll
regsvr32 c:\windows\system32\dllcache\wucltui.dll
regsvr32 wuweb.dll
Regsvr32 MSXML3.dll
regsvr32 qmgr.dll
regsvr32 qmgrprxy.dll
regsvr32 jscript.dllnet start wuauserv

Not knowing what you have tried here just a few items that you can see if you have already done.
Reset the Windows Update components
Solve Windows Update installation issues"Can I format my recovery disk"D "?
Yes you can. Usually, the OEM factory restore option will automatically erase the drive. You will need to check with Compaq on recovery methods they offer and how to access."I have also two adapters network with yellow! next to them in the Device Manager. I tried to uninstall, but they relocate! »
Well, if you do a factory restore this issue should correct itself. However, if you uninstall a hardware device, the system detects the device at startup it will attempt to reinstall. If the network adapters are part of the motherboard you can turn them off via the BIOS.

Please let know us where I should look for IE tools | Options Internet, etc.
ALT + T + O | Programs (6 7 tabs, from left to right)
================================
Note: You can see the symptoms of an infection of hijackware due these Authentium & Norton or McAfee 'leftovers' were present on the computer for so long. It is possible that VIPRE Internet Security never installed or worked properly.
OK - ALT + T + O given the folder options, so I guess I should have used Internet Options in the Control Panel, who brought up the Internet properties display and tab programs showed IE as default browser.
All attempts to open IE, Firefox or even Outlook Express for that matter, fail, because apparently the boot did not go far enough to negotiate the internet connection, as the double-monitor icon is not shown in the system tray.
Local network connection status shows as OK, but without the traffic through it.
Any attempt to interact with the Internet Options Connection folder system crashes and tries to leave or cancel the result of process in the message "end program rundll32.exe".
That is where she lies.

Cannot run Windows Update. Keeps saying to re-record the files but nothing helped.
Funny but I seem to just receive this error message when I run windowsupdate.com
"Files required to use Windows Update are longer registered or installed on your computer. To continue:
Click option 1: register or reinstall the files for me now (recommended)
Click on option 2: Let me read on other measures that may be required to solve the problem. »By clicking on option 1 sets as it is something useful, then goes back to the screen Windows Update offering Express (recommended) or custom. Whichever you choose, it sends you back to:
"Files required to use Windows Update are longer registered or installed on your computer. "To continue:By clicking on the option 2 doesn't send you a place that helps you solve the problem, it sends you to a screen where you can "SEARCH FOR YOURSELF" from scratch!
I tried a few solutions as re-register DLL files, but not to prevail. It has not changed.
I tried force windows update agent installation, but nothing works. It's really frustrating.

What are the files DLL have you tried re - record exactly?
Have you tried to register MSXML3?
"regsvr32 msxml3.You can also try to run the "sfc/scannow" command and let Windows try to repair system files.

Suddenly none of the printer Co. provides always the downloaded drivers more! And they all quit working, pilots didn't is more accepted, after problems with the Windows updates in general, seem to be fixed now.
And I finally see HP instructions for a workaround 4 pages long, in Device Manager. But no driver is never accepted to be unsigned digitally suddenly...
All the printer drivers on Windows update are digitally unsigned? So, how can I install my 3 printers? They are too recent to have discs and HP and Lexmark refer to Device Manager find but none will install because they are not digitally signed. I have W7, W10 and a XP computer for when I have a really frustrated with Windows. Like now.
How can I reset W7pro and W10pro to accept these drivers yet once, to accept unsigned drivers? What is going on!!!
Thank you
I fixed most of my problems of
-Restore W7 to the 07/01/16 mode without failure and update of the manual setting W.
-Go back to Firefox 32, with no updates
-find something new called firewall W features advanced security and made some slash and burn allowing in there
That's all the misfortunes of weird denied permissions disappeared. I guess I'll stay frozen in time until I get a real solution to all this new protocol permissions I lock the...
Thanks to you all. I can finally sleep a bit now!

1 disconnect from the internet and then try and install updates.
2. If no joy: -.
Try to manually download the same and install.
You can search the individual updates here:

If this still creates a problem, disconnect from the internet and then try to install updates, and another thing you can try is turn off UAC before downloading a first update manually. See: (Guided Help: settings to adjust user account control in Windows 7):

How to control the Windows updates are installed on the Windows Surface of RT
I recently had to perform a refresh to solve the problem with desktop on the desktop icons that appear as spaces. After the update, I had to reinstall the update for Office 2013. When I went to Windows Update to do this, I found it with a group of 9 other updates, these 9 were all marked as ready for download and installation, Office 2013 update is not checked. I disabled the office 2013 update and not the other 9 updates, thinking that I could make those after I had Office installed upgrading so I would like to know if my taskbar icon problem has been resolved. At the bottom of the screen even when the Office update was the only update checked I chose to install updates. The Surface actually installed all updates, not only the update of Office.
Is there a way to control which Windows updates are installed in fact at some point? Unchecking them made no difference.
