Phil, just wanted to drop a line and say thanks for putting this together! It fixed a problem I was having with BITS and windows update, probably after uninstalling Symantec.

Thanks so much!
Best,
Dave

Hi Methical,

This is untested on Vista. What error are you experiencing?

Kind regards,
Phil

Hi Sid,

Might be worth trying a manual download and installation of SP3 first: http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyId=5B33B5A8-5E76-401F-BE08-1E1555D4F3D4&displaylang=en

Also, see if it is listed in your Add or Remove Programs list by ticking the box to Show Updates?

Good luck,
Phil

Phil … you’ve saved me a lot of hassle with your Win XP BITS fix, and $1.50 is not enough for a donation, so I sent you a little extra through Paypal… Thank you my friend!

Phil, I’ve tried everything on this page, even downloaded the BitS from MS, since I have sp3 ms said i didn’t need the upgrade. when i do the windows update, the first file to download is sp3 which i already have, and the download fails, and won’t let me download anything else. what the heck???
