Everytime there is an update and I try to istall it I get this error on Windows 7 :

How do I set it right?

My user a/c has admin privileges to my system. It is my personal laptop, so no corporate policies or such stuff.

Currently I have to download the update everytime manually and install it.

My currently installed version is : 11.4.402.265

And I have chosen to be notified when updates are available.

Could you try running through the steps in this FAQ to see if they help?

Finished.

Press any key to continue . . .

I will have to wait for the next available update and see if this works. I will update this post once that happens.

Please note that several of the registry keys mentioned in the batch file are not present in my registry. I did not verify all the resources mentioned there. I have copied the complete output and I can pass it on if it can be of any use.
