Windows Update - Insufficient Priviledge (0x8007F004)

[Kambiz]

Windows AutoUpdate had problem on updating some stuffs on my machine. Although user account was administrator it was telling insufficient privilege. Microsoft security is a mess.

I could fix the issue by applying the following command in command prompt:

Code: Select all

secedit /configure /cfg %windir%\repair\secsetup.inf /db secsetup.sdb /verbose

Before executing the command close all applications and close your network connection. And, after reboot the machine.

Hope that it helps some of you.
