The following error prevents my computer from installing windows updates:
Code 8020002E
Updates that i was trying to install:
Updates for Windows 7 fo x64-based Systems
Updates for Microsoft .NET Framework 3.5.1
Security Updates for Windows 7 fo x64-based Systems
Security Updates for Microsoft .NET Framework 3.5.1
My computer encountered a serious error which caused it to repeatedly go into blue screen and run slow for several days.
I run system restore to try to fix the problem, tried to install windows updates after but I keep on getting "Failed" messages with multiple errors, the most persistent was the error code 8020002E. My computer never had a failed update install before. I tried fixing it using windows update troubleshooter and system update readiness tool.
I did a reformat a few days later, my computer runs smooth again; however, my computer still cannot install updates.
I tried to install one type of update at a time to find which update causes which error
The above mentioned updates causes the same error--802000E.
Again, I tried using windows update trouble shooter--did not work.
I will then try the system update readiness tool, but if it still does not work what other options do I have to fix the problem?
