How To Fix Error 80072EFD On Server 2008 ?

I finally found a solution in the notes I took while researching this problem that worked, at least temporarily, to allow updates to the server. I am not sure who the original provider of this solution is, but if I come across it again, I will surely give them credit for it.


  • Click Start > Run > type “regedit” without the quotes, and accept the UAC prompt to continue
  • Navigate to HKLM\Software\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\WindowsUpdate
  • Look at the keys in that folder, if they look something like this:
    “WUServer”=”http://SERVER:8530″
    “WUStatusServer”=”http://SERVER:8530″

    that means Windows Update is trying to look for updates on your own server. Chances are those updates don’t exist on the server (unless you have a successful installation of WSUS which was not our case).
  • Delete the “WindowsUpdate” key from the registry at HKLM\Software\Policies\Microsoft\Windows.  I’d recommend you export this to a .reg file to be safe. Right-click on the folder and select “export” to save.
  • Restart the Windows Update service.
