- by Adrian Godong
I'm trying to install the latest version of Windows Update Agent, v7.2.6001.788, and the installation failed with error code of 0x800b0100. Running Windows Server 2008 SP1.

I think something went wrong twhen loading the srclient.dll.
Things that I have done and still no fix:
msiexec /unregister and msiexec /register
regsvr32 wuapi.dll
Run CheckSUR tool and restart
