Windows Update Error

[midiboy]

Hi - all the computers on our workgroup are getting a Windows Update error. They try to download and install Xerox - Extension 7.208.0.0, which ultimately ends with "A current driver on your pc may be better than the driver we're trying to install. We'll keep trying to install." Any suggestions? Thanks.

Did you get an anser to this - I have the same issue

Not yet.

I deleted everything Xerox on 1 computer to no avail. I then downloaded and ran the Windows show or hide updates troubleshooter package, called wushowhide.diagcab. It worked by disabling the attempted Xerox update, so no more Windows Update errors - for now. It's a little hard to find as Microsoft links to the file all lead to 404's. I got it from Major Geeks - I have it here if you'd like:

Windows Update Show or Hide Updates Troubleshooter Package 

It's very small and clean.

midiboy,

Thank you for this information. It was killing me that I couldnt get it resolved. Thanks for sharing the troubleshooting package as well, it worked like a champ!

Thanks Midi Boy worked a treat.

Looks like Microsoft have removed the utility from their website

Glad to help, guys. The issue may have already been resolved - one of our machines that I hadn't gotten to with the hide update fixed the issue on it's own.
