Windows Update error 8024200d

I downloaded this torrent a couple of years ago and I've never had a problem with the 32-bit (the one I use) until today.

Microsoft announced today that it has finalized the first maintenance update for Windows 7 and Windows Server 2008 R2, Service Pack 1. The update contains a collection of minor updates and fixes that have been released for the operating system since Windows 7 RTMed in July 2009.

I tried installing the updated but I got this error.


Then I followed this guide;


and it led me to a 'hotfix' of some sort from Microsoft's website. I downloaded and installed it without a problem and then tried the update again but it still failed.

I know a lot of people will instinctively brush me off, telling me to buy a genuine copy if I want to not have issues but the reason I haven't done that is because on the 95th page of that torrent, there's someone that left the following comments.

Well since you torrented it, I would imagine you can't do valid updates.

Like I said, I haven't had a problem updating for more than 2 years. The copy is torrented, yes, but its clean. And I paid for a genuine key from another web-forum. The copy is genuine, technically.

Windows Update-felkoden 8024002d is just that the update dident finnish downloading or installing you should download som sort of checking system to see what the problem is and what update is the problem is it SP2?

Thanks but I found the fix and forgot to close this.

Incase anyone else has the same error, this should provide a remedy;
