Thanks very much for your reply. Went through the steps,
but was unsuccessful. Finally found this & it worked:

From the command line, ran:

REGSVR32 C:\WINDOWS\system32\wuapi.dll
REGSVR32 C:\WINDOWS\system32\wuaueng.dll
REGSVR32 C:\WINDOWS\system32\atl.dll
REGSVR32 C:\WINDOWS\system32\wucltui.dll
REGSVR32 C:\WINDOWS\system32\wups.dll

Got it off broadbandreports.com

Mohan, Thank you so much for this info. I have been looking for 2 days for a
solution to this problem. As soon as I checked the security settings I knew
what the problem was. These settings get changed so easy. I just changed
the user settings from a user profile to "All Users use the same settings"
and all kinds problems occured. Lot of missing updates, etc. Again, thank
you so much.
