Windows updated rest itself, and show error 0C80001FE
Hi there
I have strange issue here
Around two days ago Win update sort of rest itself (it remember my settings but removed all of my updates history and the updates I hide)
So I tried to tell it to search for updates but saw that it just either search forever or either show error 0C80001FE
I looked around the net and tried to fix it myself
I tried to make this reg file:
net stop wuauserv
cd %systemroot%
ren SoftwareDistribution SoftwareDistribution.old
net start wuauserv
from this page
https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/kb/958048
and Tried Brink Windows Update Reset tutorial
(tried OPTION TWO)
Win update still act the same and I afraid I break anything so I system restore to a few hours before I done it, didn't saw any change in the files and still saw that the files from after I used the regs are still there
I saw the reg file back up my SoftwareDistribution folder and named it as "SoftwareDistribution.old"
I want to go back to the default settings I had but I don't sure if it going to help after Brink reg changed all winU's reg files
Can I still replace the folder files with the SoftwareDistribution.old ones in safe mod and nothing will break?
Also anyone have any idea how I can fix it? I'm not fan of MS's Fix it tool
they usually stupid tools that break more stuff than fixing anything
I can't even find what they fix because they don't write it anywhere
is MS's tool from this link http://support.microsoft.com/kb/971058
ONLY fix win update? and what files it change and mess with it?
If you have any other ideas how to fix it please tell me, I will run sfc /verifyonly for now and post log later
