Solved XP Pro Hacked: Lost Admin rights on User Account!

Do you mind attaching that log in an email to me so I can study it?

 

Lets try something else. Copy this post to a blank notepad then close all open browser windows.

Click Start>Run and type cmd then hit enter to open a command window.

Highlight and copy the first bolded command below, then right click>Paste it in the command window and hit enter.


net stop wuauserv

regsvr32 wuapi.dll

regsvr32 wuaueng1.dll

regsvr32 wuaueng.dll

regsvr32 wucltui.dll

regsvr32 wups2.dll

regsvr32 wups.dll

regsvr32 wuweb.dll

net start wuauserv

exit


Now do each of the others and restart the computer when done. Try Windows Update again.

 

I finally got Windows Update to work. I ran CCleaner, rebooted and checked WU again. Downloaded and installed the remaining updates available.

Do you still need me to post a log or email you as requested above?

Thanks.

 

Nope ....... if it's working there's no need to persue the cause

Glad to hear you got that sorted. Anything else we need to do?

 

Nope. I'm very appreciative for all the help/support I have received in this thread, especially from you noahdfear. Someone recommended me this site and I'm sure glad I was pointed in this direction. One of the best support forums I have ever visited. Thanks to you all.

Cheers.

 

Glad we could help.
