Verify that the time, date/year & time-zone are set correctly

Always remember to set a System Restore point before doing any work on your computer.

Rename the Windows Update Softwaredistribution folder

That is what I got when searched around for error 0x80248015

This problem may occur if the Windows Update, Software distribution folder has been corrupted.

 We can refer to the following steps to rename this folder.

Please note that the folder will be re-created the next time we visit the Windows Update site.

  1. Close all the open windows.
  2. Click the "Start" Button, click "All programs", and click "Accessories".
  3. Right-click "Command Prompt" and click "Run as administrator".
  4. In "Administrator: Command Prompt" window, type in " net stop WuAuServ" (without the quotes) and press Enter.

Note: Please look at the cmd window and make sure it says that it was successfully stopped before we try to rename the folder.

  1. Click the "Start" Button, in the "Start Search" box, type in " %windir%" (without the quotes) and press Enter.
  2. In the opened folder, look for the folder named "SoftwareDistribution".
  3. Right-click on the folder, select "Rename" and type " Sdold " (without the quotes) to rename this folder.
  4. Still in "Administrator: Command Prompt" window, type the command " net start WuAuServ" (without the quotes) in the opened window to restart the Windows Updates service.

Note: Please look at the cmd window and make sure it says that it was successfully started.

Note: If the issue is resolved and you can successfully download and install updates, you can safely delete the SoftwareDistribution.old directory to recover disk space.

The windows update team and other users who regularly read the forum can either share their knowledge or learn from your interaction with us.

    Sorry not that computer literate. Couldn't find anything to do with KB896688 as the Updater no longer has a record of failed updates. It just says never now. Did look at installed updates and it's not there.

    HERE IS THE LAST BIT OF THE UPDATE LOG I TRIED JUST NOW:

    Always remember to set a System Restore point before doing any work on your computer.

     

    Rename the Windows Update Softwaredistribution folder

     

    That is what I got when searched around for error 0x80248015

    This problem may occur if the Windows Update, Software distribution folder has been corrupted.

     We can refer to the following steps to rename this folder.

    Please note that the folder will be re-created the next time we visit the Windows Update site.

    1. Close all the open windows.
    2. Click the "Start" Button, click "All programs", and click "Accessories".
    3. Right-click "Command Prompt" and click "Run as administrator".
    4. In "Administrator: Command Prompt" window, type in " net stop WuAuServ" (without the quotes) and press Enter.

    Note: Please look at the cmd window and make sure it says that it was successfully stopped before we try to rename the folder.

    1. Click the "Start" Button, in the "Start Search" box, type in " %windir%" (without the quotes) and press Enter.
    2. In the opened folder, look for the folder named "SoftwareDistribution".
    3. Right-click on the folder, select "Rename" and type " Sdold " (without the quotes) to rename this folder.
    4. Still in "Administrator: Command Prompt" window, type the command " net start WuAuServ" (without the quotes) in the opened window to restart the Windows Updates service.

    Note: Please look at the cmd window and make sure it says that it was successfully started.

    Note: If the issue is resolved and you can successfully download and install updates, you can safely delete the SoftwareDistribution.old directory to recover disk space.

    Hi, Jose,

    I had exactly same issue, and the path forward was given by a German Web site. The link after translation is:

    http://translate.google.com/translate?hl=en&sl=de&tl=en&u=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.windows-7-forum.net%2Fwindows-7-sicherheit%2F35981-windows-sicherheitsupdates-lassen-mehr-herunterladen-3.html

    However it did not explain in any detail on how to implement it. 

    Thanks a bunch, and I too would like to offer you buckets of beer!

    I wonder what did cause the corruption of the "SoftwareDistribution" folder?

    Hi Jose,

    Put up the logs, but no response from anyone. Think I've now tried everything I have been able to find although I have just found this? What do you think? If you think it's worth a try can you please explain how I do the process correctly.

    I found the fix! I went into the registry and found:

    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\WindowsUpdate\AU

    "UseWUServer"=dword:00000001

    I deleted the entry for UseWUServer (at first I just tried setting it to 0, but no dice) and restarted the system. Now my updates work just fine :)

     I'm running Windows 7 Home Premium.

    Many thanks for your assistance up to date Jose.

    Cheers

    Paul (Marazan)
