    Hi Wasantha,

    1.       Which Fit-it are you referring to?

    2.       Are you not able to install some specific updates?

    You usually get this error while installing software updates. If Microsoft finds some problems in the digital signature of the update is when you usually get this error.

    Have a look at this and see if that helps:

    Dear Sir,

    I have the same problem (service registration is missing or corrupt) on my Windows 7 professional system.

    Updates are not running.

    I can not install Microsoft.NET Framework 4.0 Full.

    Could you please  help me out?

    I had this issue, had to manually remove BITS and update client (even the registry) and re-install.

    I agree with you. Seems like issues are around to force you to upgrade.
