Windows update is an Important component of Windows.By Windows updates one can get

• new drivers for the hardware devices installed in the computer
• security patches
• known bugs fixed
• Major updates and upgrades.

But due to some issues, generally related directly or Indirectly to some corruption in system files, windows update may not work properly.This discussion discusses resetting the Windows update completely using a reset script.

It does the following things:

• Re-registers the Windows update Files.
• Resets your network connection.

Instructions for usage:

1. Download the Script into your computer.
2. At the location where it is saved, Right click and select Extract.
3. After the extract is complete, you will see a WuReset.bat named File in the new windows that opens.
4.  Unblock the .bat file.
5. Right click WuReset.bat named file and select Run as administrator.
6. Wait for the “Task completed successfully” message in the command Prompt Window.
7. Restart your computer and check for the updates again.
