Windows Update fails working on windows 7 with Error Code 8024200D

0

It may seem at first that we have many answers to this question but I tried them all but the update still fails.

Note: Windows 7 does not stuck in checking for updates. However, it downloads them but fails to install them : (No duplicates were found for this question).

Some of posts I've used to solve the issue: http://www.thewindowsclub.com/windows-update-stuck-downloading-updates Those all steps I have done:

1. Stop the Windows Update related Services. net stop wuauserv // Ok : mean operation succeeded net stop bits // Ok

2. I deleted all files in:
 C:\Windows\SoftwareDistribution folder and delete all the files and folders inside.
3. Restart the Windows Update related Services.
net start wuauserv  // ok  
net start bits      // ok
    4. I have tried **Windows Update Troubleshooter** (WindowsUpdateDiagnostic.diagcab) : It said that the problems were
    > solved !
  1. Another try, I have installed the last update of Windows Update Agent-7.6
6. Last but not least: I tried to install failed updates manually but installation failed and sometimes cause system failure to start (need revert changes).

7. I tried a clean boot : disabled all non microsoft and startup services. Still updates failed with the same error.

8. Finally, I tried both WSUS offline updater 10.9 and Windows update MiniTool. Both of them failed.

Without forgetting doing a full Virus/Malware analysis and removal :D

After doing all of those steps and restarted my laptop many times the problem is not solved so any other methods to try are welcome.

I had a similar problem.

Per this answer:

...reset all the Windows Update, that way it will start anew. You can use this script. Run it As Administrator, use option 2 and 3, and when finished restart the PC.

If that does not help, I would suggest you trying to delete the registry key HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersio‌n\WindowsUpdate\Auto Update\RebootRequired (export it first to have a backup) and restart the PC again.
