Problem with Windows Update - error 80070490 - the "normal" solutions seem not to work

Hi, I have problems with the updates in a Win7 x64 Enterprise system.

 

There are two updates missing that can not be installed, telling error code 80070490, therefore I downloaded the tool to fix it. It has been installed but the error remains...

 

it was set in the solution for that problem that I have to repair the system with an inplace upgrade. First it looked nice, Win7 collected the data... but after a period of 7 hours working on it, the upgrade programm said "problems with the upgrade, no upgrade

available"...

 

Then I checked the registry integrity and ccleander found a problem with wuaucpl.cpl.. therefore I checked the system files and I found out that some of the windows update agent files are missing:

cdm.dll

wuaucpl.cpl

wucltui.dll

wuweb.dll

 

can I fix that problem? Is there a standalone win update agent 256 download available (I could not found any by my searches)?

 

My admin tells me to completely start with a fresh system, but I do not want to lose all my unique settings...

 

It would be great if one could give me a hint to fix the error and the update agent, too (perhaps it is the same problem).

 

Thanks a lot,

 

Whitepointer
