On Windows Embedded 8 Standard, if you attempt to use WEDU to search for updates and the scan fails with the following error in the log (wedu.log):
Application Version: 2.0.0.0
=== EXCEPTION ===
System.Runtime.InteropServices.COMException (0x8024002E): Exception from HRESULT: 0x8024002E

The most common cause of this error is the presence of the following registry key with a value other than 0:
DisableWindowsUpdateAccess
The workaround for this error is to either delete this registry key or set the value to 0.
