Installing updates, an error occured 0x8007050a

Hi All,

While updating Win 7 patches there is an error occured 0x8007050a. even I checked manually run the windows update and it is also getting stopped an given the same above error.

can someone suggest on this.

Is the Windows Update Service Disabled by any chance? You need to enable that (manual start is fine) for many M$ patches to install…

it is manual not automatic but it is enabled.

Then it is an OS thing…Not BigFix. You can try the “go to” solution for WU issues listed in the Action Script below:

// Checks to see if Windows Update service is Disabled
if {start type of service "wuauserv" = "disabled"}
waithidden cmd /C sc config {"wuauserv"} start= demand
endif

// Stops Windows Update service is running
if {state of service "wuauserv" = "Running"}
waithidden net stop wuauserv
endif

// Deletes Windows Update DataStore
folder delete "C:\windows\SoftwareDistribution\DataStore"
