Среди прочих ошибок в Windows при установке обновлений, в том числе при использовании автономного установщика обновлений, во время установки компонентов Windows, таких как Visual C++ Redistributable или .NET Framework, а также в Microsoft Store — ошибка с кодом 0x80070424. Ошибка может возникнуть как результат использования программ для «оптимизации» и отключения обновлений, в некоторых случаях — после заражения компьютера вредоносными программами.
В этой инструкции подробно о способах исправить ошибку 0x80070424 при обновлении, установке компонентов или использовании Microsoft Store в Windows 11 и Windows 10. Эта же ошибка может возникнуть при создании установочного накопителя в Media Creation Tool.
Отсутствие службы «Центр обновления Windows» — самая частая причина ошибки
Чаще всего причиной ошибки с кодом 0x80070424 является отключение или отсутствие службы «Центр обновления Windows» (или Windows Update). В некоторых случаях об этом прямо сказано в сообщении об ошибке, например: «0x80070424 — Указанная служба не установлена» или «Произошла ошибка. Одна из служб обновления работает неправильно».
Первоочередные шаги для решения проблемы:
- Зайдите в «Службы» Windows, для этого нажмите правой кнопкой мыши по кнопке «Пуск», выберите пункт «Выполнить», введите services.msc и нажмите Enter.
- Проверьте наличие службы «Центр обновления Windows» или «Windows Update» в списке служб. При наличии, дважды нажмите по этой службе, измените тип запуска на «Вручную», если служба была отключена.
- Если служба отсутствует, используйте методы из инструкции Нет службы «Центр обновления Windows» в списке служб для её восстановления, либо сразу создайте файл reg со следующим кодом и добавьте его в реестр («запустив» созданный файл):

После восстановления службы (на 3-м шаге) перезагрузите компьютер и проверьте, была ли исправлена ошибка 0x80070424
В большинстве случаев восстановление работы службы «Центр обновления Windows» решает проблему, и ошибка 0x80070424 оказывается исправленной.
Если предыдущий способ не сработал, дополнительно попробуйте выполнить следующие шаги, проверяя результат после каждого из них:
- Запустите PowerShell или Терминал Windows от имени администратора (сделать это можно в контекстном меню кнопки Пуск) и по порядку введите следующие команды:
Set-Service trustedisntaller -StartupType Manual Set-Service usosvc -StartupType Automatic Set-Service bits -StartupType Automatic Set-Service wuauserv -StartupType Manual start-service -Name wscsvc,wuauserv,bits,usosvc -Verbose
- Попробуйте использовать встроенное средство устранения неполадок обновлений Windows (Устранение неполадок Windows 11, Устранение неполадок Windows 10), либо используйте дополнительные способы исправить ошибки центра обновлений Windows.
- Проверьте содержимое раздела реестра
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\WindowsUpdate
и при наличии в нем параметра DisableWindowsUpdateAccess удалите его.
- Проверьте, появляется ли ошибка, если отключить VPN и сторонние файрволлы.
- При появлении указанной ошибки в Microsoft Store, выполните команду wsreset в командной строке, запущенной от имени администратора.
- Попробуйте проверить ваш компьютер на наличие вредоносных программ и вирусов, например, с помощью Kaspersky Virus Removal Tool, Dr.Web CureIt! или других аналогичных инструментов. Здесь может пригодиться: лучшие средства удаления вредоносных программ.
В крайнем случае можно попробовать использовать следующие подход: смонтируйте в системе ISO-образ с той же версией Windows, которая установлена у вас на компьютере, запустите файл setup.exe и выполните переустановку с сохранением всех данных и программ (такая опция будет доступна) — это полностью сбросит параметры служб и другие системные настройки, но не затронет ваши данные.
Ещё одна возможность — Сброс Windows 11 или Сброс Windows 10 в исходное состояние (позволяет оставить данные, но не установленные программы).
Возникновение ошибки 0x80070424 обычно связано с некорректной регистрацией библиотечных файлов. Если вы обновляете Windows 10 и используете для этого автономный установщик обновлений или производите скачивание файлов с каких-либо локальных серверов, то также рискуете столкнуться с указанной проблемой.
Чаще всего ошибка 0x80070424 не беспокоит пользователей, когда они приобретают официальный код активации Виндоус.
К основным причинам появления данной ошибки можно отнести следующие:
• Операционная система Windows не обновляется правильно и выдает ошибку, когда запущены не все специальные службы, а хотя бы одна из них не запущена.
• Не прошла регистрация системных файлов, поэтому некоторые из них не могут быть обнаружены. Результат – некорректный запуск специальной службы, отвечающей за установку и обновление ОС.
• Сторонний антивирус блокирует попытки обновиться.
• Аккаунт встроенного магазина компании сигнализирует о проблемах.
Как же исправить ошибку 0x80070424 в Windows 10 и Windows 11? Есть несколько путей решения вопроса:
• Зарегистрировать файлы DLL.
• Проверить автоматический запуск службы Центра обновлений.
• Провести исправление с помощью редактора реестра.
Этот редактор – одна из самых важных частей ОС. Если ошибка появилась при работе с таким, к примеру, приложением, как net framework, то редактура будет весьма кстати.
Случается, что проблема возникает в связи с ошибками, которые наложил реестр. Рекомендуем предпринять следующие действия:
• Нажмите Win и R для открытия редактора.
• Введите Regedit.
• Наберите HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\WindowsUpdate.
• Установите на 0 параметр DisableWindowsUpdateAccess.
• Перезапустите систему.
Что касается попытки повторно зарегистрировать файлы DLL, воспользуйтесь командной строкой:
• Нажимаем Пуск.
• Вводим словосочетание «командная строка».
• Входим в нее под именем администратора.
• Набираем regsvr32 Qmgrprxy.dll /s и подтверждаем ввод.
• Перезагружаемся, когда обновление завершится.
Ошибку также можно устранить при помощи специальной службы, которая занимается именно этим. Она встроена в ОС. Войти в нее легко, открыв Параметры > Обновление и безопасность > Устранение неполадок > Центр обновления.
Пролистайте до конца страницы и нажмите «Запустить». Надо сказать, что благодаря встроенным службам есть возможность избавляться практически от любых ошибок. Главное, соблюдайте подробную инструкцию и предоставьте системе самостоятельно провести сканирование и восстановить корректное функционирование.
И еще один важный момент, только активированная ОС, гарантирует стабильную работу. Купить ключ активации Windows 10 , вы можете в нашем магазине.
Microsoft releases a wide range of cumulative updates, preview builds now and then such as Tuesday patches, and more to keep the operating system away from bugs and issues. But sometimes users find with 0x80070424 Update Error in Windows 10 or 11 that blocks the update process halfway. It is so annoying that this error message appears in both the cases – Windows Update page in the Settings app and also in the Windows Standalone Installer. This leaves the user with no choice of upgrading their systems neither automatically nor manually.
In addition to these aspects, when trying to download or update apps from Microsoft Store, users experience the same issue. Hence, it is pretty clear that the problem is within the system files and as everything is inter-connected, the trouble occurs across all platforms. So, in this article, we will discuss all the applicable solutions to mitigate this issue and have an error-free update process.
0x80070424 Update Error
Here is how to fix 0x80070424 Update Error in Windows 11 or 10 –
1] Re-register Background Intelligent Transfer Service (BITS) DLL Files
Certain Windows system files are always required to download and install the Windows update flawlessly. These files are in the .dll file formats and when they go missing from the system, you tend to meet 0x80070424 Update Error in Windows 11 or 10. So, as a first solution, just register the missing system files by the following steps –
- Press ‘Win+R’ keys together to open Run dialog box.
- Insert the below-given commands one by one and hit Enter.
regsvr32 Qmgr.dll /s
regsvr32 Qmgrprxy.dll /s
