Cause

By default Backup Exec is registered with LiveUpdate and is configured to receive updates whenever LiveUpdate is run from Backup Exec.  If Backup Exec gets unregistered this issue arises.

Resolution 1:

1) Open the command prompt and browse to the following directory  C:\Program Files\Symantec\Backup Exec\

2) Run BeUpdateOps.exe -AddBE -OptOut 

3) Run LiveUpdate
