Re: No solution?

Well, if you're saying you haven't been able to execute /wuforce yet, then
you could drag the executable onto an open "Start / Run" window or onto an
open Command prompt window [e.g. after doing Start, Run, CMD, OK]. You'll
then get the entire path to the executable and can add a space and /wuforce
after it.

Alternatively you could save it to the root of your c:\ drive, and you could
rename the executable to something easier like patch.exe, then at the Start,
Run window you can type in c:\patch.exe /wuforce

Karl,

Thank you very much for your assistance. I've been away interstate for
work
and have only now had a chance to try this. I do get the response
"install
is not needed since ...." I cannot get it to run by adding '/wuforce' to
the
name of the file. I'm showing my ignorance here because I cannot run the
program.

How do I do it? I've tried using 'start run' and inserting
"WindowsUpdateAgent20-x86.exe /wuforce" without success. I've saved the
program to my desktop and tried renamming it by adding '/wuforce' but
nothing
works.

I am really greatful for your assistance on this.

Regards,
Phil

Searching Google for your error message "faulting-module" AND wuaueng.dll
gave some possible solutions, including this one that appears to have
fixed

========================

Download location for WindowsUpdateAgent20-x86.exe
http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=43264




If it says "Install is not needed since Windows Update Agent is
already installed.", run the exe with the command line switch
/wuforce, like this:




WindowsUpdateAgent20-x86.exe /wuforce

If that doesn't help, see the other Google results for other possible
