Hardware Update Wizard is not working (Solution)

When you trying update or install driver via CompMgmt.msc and clicking "Update driver" nothing happened. Make sure that you`ve got these errors in System log:

Description:
Client side device installation was not performed because the file "C:\WINDOWS\system32\newdev.dll" was not found.

Just copy NEWDEV.DL_ from distributive to %SYSTEMROOT%\System32\newdev.dll.

Thank you!!! This missing file was at the heart of some serious installation problems.

Note: I found a preexisting copy of "newdev.dll" already on my computer in "C:\Windows\system32\dllcache" as well as "C:\Windows\ServicePackFiles\i386"
