I get error 0x8009200D when I try to use Windows Update
and I could not find any doc on this error code. Windows
Update used to work fine on my WinXP Pro PC until I had
to restore it (the whole /C drive) from a backup image
file created by PowerQuest DriveImage 2002. Everything
else seems to be working fine. Does anybody know what
this error mean and how to fix it? Thanks. GeneK

Hi

From a previous post:

This is typically caused by Cipher Strength.

Some suggestions:

Verify Cipher Strength is 128bit:
http://support.microsoft.com/?id=261328


Register some system files:

Click Start >> Run >>
Type the follow command in the Open box.
"REGSVR32 WINTRUST.DLL" (w/o quotes)
Press Ok
Type "REGSVR32 SOFTPUB.DLL" (w/o quotes)
Press Ok
"REGSVR32 INITPKI.DLL" (w/o quotes)
Press Ok
"REGSVR32 MSSIP32.DLL" (w/o quotes)

Access Windows Update again.

Let us know the results.


Thanks,
Lucy [MS]

It worked, thanks Torgeir! My cipher was already 128-bit,
I just ran regsvr32 for the 4 system files mentioned
above, rebooted the PC and Windows Update works fine now.
Really appreciate your quick response and help.
