Actually, it fixed nothing. It only replaced the corrupted file/directory.
If you check the logs of Windows Update, you will probably find it had been finding no updates for a couple of weeks. The problem is that Windows Update doesn't bother to tell you the same problem is preventing it from working.
Considering how many lines of code are contained in Vista, you'd think someone would have added some error handling to notify you of the problem, advise you to restart Windows and then, execute a script to do the same thing you did manually.
At least Windows Defender tells you there is a problem. The more critical Windows Update doesn't bother to do so.
