One of our reader Catherine reported that she can not start automatic updates on local computer, when ever she tries to start Automatic Update service receives the following error
Error 1058: The service cannot be started, either because it is disabled or because it has no enabled devices associated with it."
This problem might be caused due to some vundo trojans which disable windows updates on your computer and will not let windows update service to get start again. It could be due to some stopped services which acts as dependent service for windows update.
Let’s see how can you start windows update service and remove the error 1058

The most possible causes behind this error 1058 – could not start automatic updates are:
- Your System may be infected with some malwares called "Vundo" trojans
- Remote Procedure Call service is stopped you will need to start it to start Automatic Updates
Go to Start > Run, type “services.msc” and press enter. This will open an service management windows. In order to start automatic updates service please check whether following services are already started.
- Background Intelligent Transfer Service (BITS)

Just wanna say THANK YOU!!! I happened upon your site after googling “automatic update disabled”. I ended up having to download the SuperAntiSpyware. It worked like you said. I got my automatic update going and so far no new windows are opening up in my browser.
Previous to finding your site I tried AVG and Lavasoft’s Ad-ware to no avail.
Thanks and God bless!!
