In my computer i have a problem with automatic update service does not start. Actually i had a virus in my computer naming "Vundo" but was able to to remove the virus. But when i open my service console, the AU service is disbaled. i set it on & apply it. then also it automaticly set it off. then i recieve the following error:
Error 1058: The service could not be started, either because it is disabled or it has no enabled devices associated with it.
I have confirmed that BITS is up and running normally, I can also stop and restart it with no problems.
I have attempted to delete the AU service and reinstall. I have used the following command to reinstall:
rundll32.exe setupapi,InstallHinfSection DefaultInstall 132 %systemroot%\inf\au.inf
I have tried reregistering the following files:
wuapi.dll
wuaueng.dll
wuaueng1.dll
wucltui.dll
wups.dll
wuweb.dll
As a last resort, I booted to the XP CD and ran a repair, nothing has corrected the problem. I cannot begin to tell you how much I DO NOT want to wipe this computer out and start fresh.
