How to Reinstall the Windows Update ActiveX Control
- 1). Download Version 6 of the Windows Update ActiveX control using the link listed in Resources section.
- 2). Save the file to a folder you will remember later. It is often easiest to download programs to your desktop for easy retrieval.
- 3). Use a free unzip utility program, such as 7-zip, to extract the files to a temporary folder. Again, it is often easiest to create a temporary folder on your desktop so you can easily find the extracted files.
- 4). Open the temporary folder, right-click on "Wusetup.inf," and choose "Install."
- 5). Restart your computer once ActiveX has finished installing. You should now have the updated version of Windows Update ActiveX Controls.
