Some Windows Update failed to install

Some time you face the problem while installing the Windows Updates.


Try below steps..

Run cmd.exe  click yes on UAC prompt.

1. Stop Background Intelligent Transfer Service.
 
   On command prompt type
   net stop bits

2. Stop Windows Update

   On command prompt type

   net stop wuauserv
 

after stoping all these services we need to rename the SoftwareDistribution Directory that contains the Updates.

On command prompt tyep
