*Only* IE10 install fails in Windows Update
First of all, I'm new here, so try to be patient as I stumble through the rules.
Normally I'm pretty good at fixing software issues, but this one has me stumped.
I have a machine running Win7 h/p which seems to have installed any other updates fine, but always chokes on IE10, throwing "Code 9C59 Windows Update encountered and unknown error."
(As a side note, I've *never* seen it encounter a *known* error.)
What I have done with no success:
Renamed the SoftwareDistribution folder.
Turned off Norton's 360.
Uninstalled IE9 and reinstalled (it said I had a newer version of IE9 installed *after* I had removed it and rebooted!)
Tried downloading and running the redistributable installer for IE10.
All failed. I have since downloaded and run SURT, run an sfc scan, and checked the Windows error log while I waited. There are loads of instances of this in the event viewer:
"Installation Failure: Windows failed to install the following update with error 0x80070643: Internet Explorer 10 for Windows 7 for x64-based Systems."
I compressed a copy of the CBS folder and attached it.
Thanks in advance for any help.
