Installing these manually via the command line would be a pain to do.

However, Windows Patch Loader outputs all updates as Cabinet Files (except the service packs, which are already installed). P.S.: In case there is no solution, I have already downloaded all Vista updates through Windows Patch Loader. My goal is to get Windows Vista onto the latest version available and to then install the Extended Kernel. Is there anything else I could attempt at this point to have Windows Update running properly (and to, ideally, also get SHA-2 code signing support)? None of these supposed solutions had worked for me, though (although some supposedly did for some users). KB970158 (Kernel-Mode Driver Framework v1.9) KB3145739 (Security Update for Microsoft Windows) Initpki.dll (Module 'initpki.dll failed to load see full error in attachments)įurthermore, I had successfully installed the following updates manually as an attempted solution:

Mshtml.dll (Loaded but entry-point DllRegisterServer not found)īrowseui.dll (Loaded but entry-point DllRegisterServer not found) Shdocvw.dll (Dll loaded but entry-point DllRegisterServer not found) Now, I've done some research and the results I've found were to run a rootkit checker (nothing detected, even after installing an additional driver), pausing my antivirus (Avast Free), updating the Windows Update client, installing an update that supposedly enables SHA-2 signing (the article I got that from was from 2019, doubt it still works), removing or renaming the Catroot2 folder, resetting my hosts file and registering the following DLL files: System: Windows Vista 圆4 (Version 6.0, Build 6002: SP2)ĭevice: Dell Latitude E6500 (shipped with a Windows Vista Business x86 OEM Key)ĭate of Installation: Saturday 13th, March 2021 (Yesterday as of writing this)Įver since I installed a fresh, genuine, unmodified copy of Windows Vista Ultimate 圆4 SP2 on my system yesterday, I've been having issues getting Windows Update to run.
