If you try to install a Windows Update and it fails with error code “80070570,” try installing the latest Windows Update agent. Unfortunately, at the moment only Windows 7 and higher can receive an update on the Windows Update agent. The Windows Update agent of Windows XP and Windows Vista can no longer be updated.
For Windows 7 and Windows Server 2008 R2 Service Pack 1, download the applicable Windows Update agent for your operating system:
Download the file to a different drive other than the system drive or drive C because the file can’t be started directly from the drive where Microsoft Windows is installed. Once the file is downloaded, click “Start,” “All Programs,” “Accessories” then right-click “Command Prompt” and select “Run as administrator” to launch an elevated command prompt. In the command prompt window, type without quotes “d:\windowsupdateagent-7.6-x86.exe /wuforce” then hit Enter.
Replace “d:” with the drive letter where you downloaded the file like for example without quotes, “e:”, “f:”, and others. Also, for this to work, make sure the file is downloaded to the root of the drive and not inside a folder. See if this works.
