Code 80248015
Hi guys. I've been constantly getting Code 80248015 when I try to check for updates in WU. I've done some searching about this problem and some forums said that it's likely a wrong date and time setting and when I checked mine everything was alright. I've done some more searching and tried out other ways of trying to fix this, but nothing worked.
It all started when WU failed to install an update on May 19. The weird thing is that on that date it only shows one failed update. I am sure I downloaded other updates, but it did not appear on the history. Since then, I am not able to download any updates. I had some other failed updates before but it never gave me any errors. This is also the first time I've encountered an error with WU.
Here are the details of the update that failed to install:
Cumulative Security Update for Internet Explorer 8 for Windows 7 for x64-based Systems (KB2675157)
Installation date: 5/19/2012 9:16
