8E5E03FA

I get this error code when I go to install 21 updates on my computer windows Vista laptop.  Not a single update is installed.

Hi Joolsvern,

A. are you install updates through windows or manual updates?

Try the following steps.

Step 1

You can try to reset the windows update components and then try to install the updates. Open the link below and click on the Fixit button that resets automatically.

Step 2

If the step above does not work, you will need to make a file system on your computer (scan sfc) checker.

  • Error Code 8E5E03FA

    When you try to install, update KB2141007 I get error code 8E5E03FA

    I think it's maybe the solution I was looking for but: ren c:\windows\system32\catroot to catroot3 is an order invalid, may be a typing error, you can update the right command?

    My bad - the command is "ren c:\windows\system32\catroot catroot3" - I wrote it as if to speak rather than write the command line. The source I quoted he was right and I got careless. It will be useful.

  • Windows 7 64 Bit update error Code 8E5E03FE

    I just bought a new PC running Windows 7 64 bit and made my first run updates of Windows very well, that everything installed OK. Then, most of the updates and everything I try they fail with "Error 8E5E03FE", help on Windows itself is absolutely useless with this problem and I tried almost EVERY solution I can find elsewhere on the internet for the same problem and have gotten nowhere.

    I tried to install the updates with a clean boot and firewall off etc which did not help at all. I also tried to download the files manually from Microsoft Download Center and every update still does not work.

    My system is BRAND NEW, so I don't understand what the cause of the errors and four updates are updates to security I want to install successfully.

    Any help anyone could offer would be appreciated.

    2. At the command prompt, type the following commands and press ENTER after each one. Please include spaces as orders must be exactly as planned. You can right- click on the prompt and paste these, too:

  • Windows 7 Professional 64-bit: Windows Update error Code 8E5E03FA

    Okay, so I got Windows Update problems now for at least two months. I have worked with Microsoft technical support by e-mail and phone, but so far have had no luck, so I was hoping someone here might have an answer or an idea.

    My computer has started giving 8E5E03FA error Code whenever I try to install windows updates. It would also sit at a standstill for always "checking for updates... "when I start updating windows. She has also always updates installed during shutdown, even if they never seem to install correctly. To try to remedy this situation, I tried a clean boot, I tried to use the tool of analysis of Windows 7, I tried to download the updates manually (they wouldn't install with error C80003FA), I tried to use the fixit tool to reset update windows (in aggressive and non-aggressive mode), I tried to manually reset windows update I ran ' sfc/scannow' (which has found errors that it could not solve), I tried an upgrade on the spot, and finally, I tried a clean install.

    Once installed the clean, with nothing else installed, it wouldn't install updates, new fails with the error Code 8E5E03FA. It installs the office updates very well, he moved some other updates of the ms software very well, it installs the driver updated very well, but it seems not be able to install windows updates at all. At this point, there are 44 sitting in the pending updates, updates will be installed, which cannot be.

    My computer also takes a lot of time to load completely once connected. The Office will be, but my anti-virus and the wifi won't start or connect to between 3-5 minutes after the connection, and trying to open anything during this period will not work. It seems that something is happening in the background that I'm not aware of.

    Before the clean install, I ran the Windows 7 compatibility check and checked everything. So I'm at the end of my rope here, I don't really have any ideas on what to do. I put the windows update log and cbs logs if this will help.

    Thanks in advance for any help that can be offered.

  • A security update cumulative for Internet Explorer 9 for Windows Vista (KB2809289). Error details: Code 8E5E03FA.

    Tried to install the update Cumulative security for Internet Explorer 9 for Windows Vista (KB2809289) and it failed several times.  Error details: Code 8E5E03FA. Tried to disable the firewall and antivirus, nothing helped, also tried to download the update and install it in safe mode, did not help as well. Tried to run Microsoft Fix It, luck is. Can anyone offer any help with this?

    Boris

    Boris

    I had problems too with IE9 and it's updates... as you say all the other updates work I don't think that the Windows Update the question... is IE itself... IMHO...

    For days, I was getting the BSOD and it became progressively worse as the days passed... Now, I have all stable and works very well yet.

    If my suggestion for you is what I did... sort the problem at the source the progam in other - IE there is a form of corruption imho.

    First download and save IE9 to your download folder make sure you have the correct version, for example English Vista 64-bit

    Uninstall the current version... you may have to restart... I suggest you only do it anyway... It is cleaner that way. Then reinstall IE. I suggest that you set up with as few add on the as possible and add them at a later date, as and when you need it, preferably one at a time.

    Once you have reinstalled IE and restarted the kickoff of Windows Update If you have not automatically set to run... and I think that it will update the update of security OK.

    Good luck - let me know
