Windows Update error 0x8024402C(2014-06-24-T-12_59_06P) Not Fixed with an X in a red circle

 

Problems installing recent updates Not Fixed with an X in a red circle

 

Check for missing or corrupted files Detected with an exclamation point in a yellow triangle

 

 

Then it told me that it had repaired some security settings that had changed and

 

that the Service Registration was missing or corrupt but had been fixed.

The following updates were not installed:

 

Hotfix for Windows (KB947821).
