Ancile hangs up at 'Restarting Windows Update'

[Linda Meyer]

Hi,

sorry, me again! Today after my Windows Updates, I ran Ancile. But it didn't go on working after these lines: Modifing Windows Update ... Modifying Automatic Updates Restarting Windows Update

To be more precise, it looked like it is was still working on restarting Windows Update, but it was been looking this way for more than 1 hour. So I closed Ancile, restarted the computer and ran Ancile again. Same issue again, see the contents of the CMD window below:

Starting Ancile v1.11

System error 1376 has occurred.

The specified local group does not exist.

OK, sorry. I was not patient enough. After more than an hour, Ancile is now going on uninstalling Windows Updates etc. Sorry!

[Linda Meyer]

OK

I'm glad to hear it finally worked
