Please help me get rid of this error. I always disable Windows getting info / drivers for my devices as I prefer installing the manufacturer drivers myself so when on the initial customization screen of Windows 8.1, I turn that feature off. Now even after doing all the Windows updates and hiding the driver updates then installing all my drivers, every restart I would get a lot of errors..... Event ID 22 = Access to drivers on Windows Update was blocked by policy Event ID 200 = A connection to the Windows Update service could not be established. Event ID 201 = A connection to the Windows Metadata and Internet Services (WMIS) could not be established. Event ID 202 = The Network List Manager reports no connectivity to the internet. (but I am connected to the internet) Event ID 10010 = The server {F9717507-6651-4EDB-BFF7-AE615179BCCF} did not register with DCOM within the required timeout. ================================================================ With regards to the EVENT ID 22, I googled that then applied the following registry entry but it didn't help: Code: Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00 [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\DriverSearching] “DontSearchWindowsUpdate”=dword:00000001 “DontPromptForWindowsUpdate”=dword:00000001 “DontSearchCD”=dword:00000001 “DontSearchFloppies”=dword:00000001 “SearchOrderConfig”=dword:00000000 [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\Device Metadata] “PreventDeviceMetadataFromNetwork”=dword:00000001
I am the only user and I am the admin, Microsoft Account used since the installation though, does that matter?
