Editorial Review of Fix Updates 64.bat

If you're running Windows XP, and Windows Update tells you that an update, or several updates, couldn't successfully install, there's likely a problem with your wups2.dll file. Something, perhaps another install that didn't work properly, has probably left Windows unsure about how to handle this important piece of the update puzzle.

I've created a batch file to help you fix it. Actually, two batch files; one for the 32-bit version of XP, and this one for the 64-bit version. Simply download and run the appropriate batch file.

When you download a batch file in Firefox, it displays the contents of the file (plain, ASCII text) rather than actually downloading the file. The easiest workaround is to copy the text to Notepad, and save it as a file with the .bat extension rather than the default .txt. Internet Explorer doesn't have this problem.

When the batch file displays a message box, click OK.
