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

Thank you so much! Only registered in here to say thank you! Helped me a lot with my fresh installed Win 8.1 Pro that was messed after the last windows update! best regards from bavaria/germany Markus EDIT: OK... I think I have to add some more information after having some more difficulties than before I used this solution. Different programs have dll-problems and half of my windows is faulty. Maybe this solution wasnt as good as I thought before because my installation was fresh and never had such problems before. My Panda antivirus could not be opened or uninstalled, Intel RTS service got similar problems, watercooling software is not able to start anymore and much more. :/ I think after all I have to rollback my whole system because startup takes about 5-10 minutes with some tricks to get back into windows again. I do not want to downvote this solution because I used it in Windows 8.1 Pro and it was originally thought for Windows 7. So Win8 users take attention! High risk of killing your OS in my eyes!

Hi Glenn, Now its apparent that you don't know much about computers. I can't help you if we can't communicate since you don't know how to use skype we can do it another way. Still i want to protect myself from many people abusing my privacy i want you to send me your phone number on my private email address which is ******@hotmail.com i can limit the ability of other people i don't want to be allowed to contact me there. After i get you phone number i will call you and teach you what you need to do to gain lots of knowledge and cure your problem. Regards Frank aka mrresourceful

Hi Glenn if you want further help, contact me on Skype, at fap828. Leave me a message that you need help with computer and best time to contact you using skype. Thanks sorry you are having so much trouble. Microsoft will not fix the problem free of charge i will. Regards Frank aka mrresourceful

No such place on my computer. I give up until Microsoft fixes their mistake by a change to update their update.
