Hi guys.
I decided to reset my PC and format my HDD since I had a problem with some drivers. The problem, however, is even bigger now because Windows Update doesn't work.
It gives me an 80072EFE error when I click on 'Check for Updates' in 'Control Panel'.
Timezone, time and date are set properly. I've tried manually downloading and installing some updates but as soon as the installation starts, it stops and tells me 'This update does not apply to your system'. And I've seen this message with around 20 updates I tried to install so far.
I also tried to install them using WSUS Offline Update but didn't work either. Tried restarting numerous times, did a diskcheck, I even did a second format and re-installed Windows but I'm still getting this same error. And I seriously need to update because a few programs don't work unless I update (e.g. NVIDIA GeForce Experience).
I've had this Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit CD for around 10 years now and didn't deal with any issues.
I've run out of ideas and I'm going crazy, lol. What do you think?
Thanks in advance!
