    No, I don’t work for Microsoft, but maybe they should compensate us for helping them out. I work in IT for a small private school and this error appeared on one of my teacher’s laptop. Glad this worked for you too

    Thanks.  This fixed the problem caused by Windows Update.  I assume you don't work for Microsoft.  If that's the case, then it's really poor that users have to put in the time to work out solutions to these problems and not Microsoft.  It's just a crazy situation.

    Glad I was able to help others. I was surprised when this actually worked too.
