WinXP Pro Win Update Registry Key Deleted - 06/06/09 10:04 PM
OK, I'm not so smart! For the first time in many, many years I deleted a registry key without, of course, first backing it up.
Now, for the past several months, every time I start my PC I get the pop-up message from Windows telling me to install an update (which I've done repeatedly). I'm assuming the registry key I deleted is one which registers that this update has been installed.
The only part of the key I vaguely remember is "wind" something. I've searched the registry on a friend's computer which runs Win XP (not Pro) and could find nothing with "wind" in the string.
Anyone running Win XP Pro SP 3 and has a key with "wind" in its name/string?
Help appreciated.
