[SOLVED] Windows update error code 80070490

Further investigation has found that trustedinstaller.exe is missing. I expect this is causing the issue but do not know how to fix it.

Another update. I noticed there were 5 optional updates so decided to install them. After rebooting I tried to install ie11 using the off line installer and I had success. I guess I am all fixed now or do you want me to run any tools and generate reports?

This has been fun. I discovered the windows update client was corrupt so updated it and ran your download again and found the updates were not for this system. Meanwhile windows update ran in the background and found 226 updates so I am now installing them and will advise when completed.

It has been running for 2.5 hours still with the same message - searching for updates on your computer, and done nothing else. Is this normal?

Windows update has been running for 4 hours checking for updates. Will let it run overnight and do the updates tomorrow. I assume once they are all installed I let you know? Should I look at any program to help keeping the system clean?

Hi Brian. Repair install was completed and I reinstalled the drivers from backup. I have not installed any windows updates as I am not sure how you want me to proceed. FYI I have CCleaner, Windows 7 manager and Glary utilities installed. Unsure if I should use them in future.
