Thank you for your reply - but the problem persists - this is mopre complete info.
The system starts well and runs - BUT I cannot now be updated because when I access "Windows Update" it always returns this error message.

This is what is happening in the process of updating before it fails:

If this solves the problem, then add devices one by one after the other until you discover the piece of hardware causing the issue. Then we can update driver for this particular device.

If the problem persists, try Method 2,

Method 2:

Check if the problem persists in safe mode.

If the problem does not persist in Mode safe mode, then perform a clean boot in order to check if any third-party application is causing the problem, as the clean boot helps eliminate software conflicts.

8.1 Windows Update failed with code 0 x 80004005 (0x7000c)

Hello

I have reset my laptop Windows 8 once I've failed several times to apply the mandatory update KB2919355. I wanted to install the updates, apply the 8.1 update, and then try to reinstall KB2919355. However, I am currently unable to apply the Windows the Windows store 8.1 update. A few pertinent facts:
- I scanned for & installed all Windows & driver updates post reset.
- This isn't a system dual-boot
- All programs, user directories, & the operating system is installed on a partition (C: drive) - no links to map directories
- There is no anti-virus installed (I use Windows Defender)
- My user name has administrative rights
- sfc/scannow will return no error
That said, every time I have download the Windows 8.1 store update, it fails at the end. Here's a sampler of towards the end of WindowsUpdate.log (I saved a copy of the entire file so please ask for more details if necessary):

I read the journal online & encountered no other errors, not to mention that (s) reported after "complΘtΘ Installer".

I would be grateful for any help.

Thank you!

I solved this problem by running the Troubleshooter Windows Store. He showed me a problem with the USB host controller (Yes, I have the latest drivers installed) where Windows could not load this driver due to a conflict. I looked towards the top of this conflict on the HP support forums (I have a HP dv6t) & used the solution posted here to fix this problem.

Once this issue is resolved, the update went through without any problems.

Hope this helps someone else who had the same problem.

Windows update fails with 0 x 80070424 among others (update agent will not install)

I tried to install iTunes 9.2 on my computer of girls running Vista 64 sp1. It failed several times with an error message encrypted with public keys and RCH80. I took this down to a problem of lack of security patches. In the process, I noticed that Windows Update has been fails with error 0 x 80070424, indicating a required service was not running.

so I downloaded sp2, also the operation failed with error 0 x 80070424 even. I checked the Background Intelligent Transfer and start-up and running (so I restarted), I checked Windows Update and it was also running and so I restarted. Same result. I've disabled UAC and restarted. Still no joy.

Then I read an article on the subject, said a service called "Automatic updates" should be running, not only he was not running, did not exist. Some that I've been on something I downloaded "windowsupdateagent30 - x 64 .exe" to install the service. Unfortunately, this fails with a fatal error, no number error, simply "windows has encountered a fatal error.

It is where I am at this time - trying to figure out a fix for this. Thank you. (I also disabled AV, firewall, etc., ran several antivirus scans, malware scans including Malware Bytes, AVG and Avast and MS Defender and rootkit detectors which come clean).

OK I found this user Mohsen Arjomand:

Windows Update, interfering with the driver installed?

New Dell with Windows 7 64 bit. Worked well for a while. But as I continued to install my programs and devices, at any given time, the NIC stop working. Indication if there is no driver installed. All - tried reinstalling Dell disk, new download from the Realtek site, other corrections after discussion with the Dell technician. Without success until I fact a "Reinstall upgrade' to Win 7 from the disk. Fixed.

Now, the same thing happened with my Kodak 5300 USB all-in-one printer. He was 'almost' fine - double-sided wasn't working. Downloaded and installed the most recent driver from Kodak. No solution, but at least it still, worked until yesterday. Does not print at all and, as the situation of NIC, indication was driver problem. Has gone through the same process but each time that Setup returns 'driver installation failed. "

Thought I'd check Windows Update. There, listed under optional updates, were drivers for the NETWORK card and the printer. (The update of NIC was sitting there, I guess that for some time.) I thought 'Great' and them selected for installation. Same thing: installation failed. The Windows Update window provides error 800F020B code «»

I guess that I can fix it by doing a reinstall of Windows again - but what a pain! Because it happened twice in a month, I think that there must be a better way!

I'm puzzled as to why the map updates NETWORK and printer published in Updater. Maybe because when I was trying to pilot facilities, it automatically checks for the latest files to install? Then download them via updater?

Anyway, if anyone can help...

Thanks for the tips. The only way I could get the printer even be recognized has been once again to do an upgrade (repair) re - install Windows 7. Then ran the original install disc for the printer, who got on the list of devices, but it wouldn't work. So re-directed the installation of Kodak web page was updated, and this time it worked! So far so good. I am still confused as to why the update of Windows watch downloads of optional upgrade for both devices (printer and NIC) I had trouble with. Everything is working now, so I'm not going to run files in the update. BTW, I was able to 'hide' these updates, but not remove them. Hide is OK, but it seems that there should be a way to permanently delete.

Thanks again.

Restart after that a windows update problem with VirusScan from McAfee (total Protection)

I'm under 64-bit Windows VISTA Home Premium SP 1 on a Dell Studio 540 desktop. 8.0 GB RAM. Intel Core 2 Quad Q9400 CPU @ 2 .66GHz.
Late last night, I started the PC to go online. Shortly after, I was invited by Windows update to restart. So I closed off everything and rebooted, except that I kept scheduled analysis of McAfee, which I set up for Fridays. I have McAfee Total Protection, which includes VirusScan. That the PC would shut down, there was a message on the screen of McAfee who said, essentially, stop this scan before restarting. I'm paraphrasing - I didn't write down the exact message. After reboot, I started again the background anti-virus scanning. After a few minutes, I received the following message:
Microsoft Windows
Order McAfee VirusScan Scan - Are asked to work and was closed. A problem with the application to stop functioning properly. Windows will notify you if a solution is available.
I have not received a solution of Windows. I completely uninstalled McAfee Total Protection, following the instructions of McAfee, then reinstalled. Everything went very well with these processes. I have yet to receive an indication of the McAfee software that something is wrong. After the reinstallation, I tried a scan, but got the same error message as above after a few minutes. It does not occur immediately, analysis continues for about 5 minutes, then abandoned.
Chatted with Dell today. They suggested a system restore, I will try then.

What updates have been installed?

During certain infections that are designed to defeat security software will cause the bomb on analyses with an error.

I also suggest you contact the McAfee Support since it is their product which blocks. http://service.McAfee.com/TechSupportHome.aspx?LC=1033&SG=TS

Windows update fails with error 8007273D

I installed Windows 7 on XP on a partition of my iMac 24 "Intel on July 11. It worked fine, whereas it is a pre-release system, except an error that arose today, July 13. When I try to do a Windows Update, it now gives me error code 8007273D this has worked fine until today's update and now says there are no updates to previous day! I 'could' said MS to install an update from the update of Windows 7, which could have replaced the correct version with another incompatible (perhaps for Vista or XP). How to know if this is the case and replace the updater (if this is the case)?

**************

Problem is solved. Reformatted the drive and reinstalled Windows 7. Everything works fine now. Don't know what was the original problem with the original installation, but all now works perfectly. Could not use "Restore Point", because the original problem either. Have backup and restore if necessary.
