Hi, When i try to take the updates, its throwing the error 8024A000. Not to able get wats the reason Help me out

I tried that and I still have error 8024A000

Yep. To be honest, it didn't seem to cause any problems by registering twice. Regards, Tom Watson

Hi Tom Watson, Thanks for the response to the community forum. From the information you've requested, because, the issue information was only providing general information about your circumstances, the DLL's were more involving a broad range of DLL's to re-register. Some DLL's have to register before others, so the answer was very inclusive on the DLL's, however, if more information is obtained about all circumstances involving an issue, some DLL's may not have been needed. In a forum setting, with the limitations of communication that occur, an inclusive set is the more proficient manner to resolve an issue. Depending on the exact set of DLL's and knowing a systems configuration would be a more refined way of pinpointing DLL's to register and then not seemingly having to register DLL's twice. Hope this assists. Regards, Debbie Microsoft Answers Support Engineer Visit our Microsoft Answers Feedback Forum and let us know what you think.

This has certainly helped in a few occasions. I notice that in the script, there are quite a few duplicate Regsvr32 statements. Is this by design? Regards, Tom Watson
