I'm running my Technet version of Windows 8 Pro x64.
Windows Update never worked from the day I installed it on Aug 15th. The install was an upgrade over Windows 7 Ultimate x64. Here's the error I am getting:
WindowsUpdate_8024402F
Here's the steps I've taken to try and get it working again:
1. Ran sfc /scannow. Fixed a couple of other problems I had but not W8 Update.
2. Ran the Windows 8 Update troubleshooter. It found a problem and said it was fixed. Not so.
While there is a lot of information regarding this problem on Windows 7 and even on the W8 previews I can't find anything helpful for W8 RTM which is what I have. Remember it's legit from Technet not a leaked version.
Any help in getting W8 Update to work will be greatly appreciated.
