  • I'm getting 'Failure Configuring Windows Updates, changes of restoration' by updating windows.

    It was the first time that I am trying to update my laptop of Lenovo G500s which is come with 8 windows pre installed, before installing the updates, I have restored the laptop if you default factory using Lenovo a recovery key. While the updates are being installed I received a message 'Fail configuration Windows updates reverting changes'. It lasted for an hour. When I tried to install updates again the same message appeared. My laptop came pre-installed with Nitro Pdf 8 and Mcafee Internet Security, so I have even uninstalled them, I also ran Mcafee Consumer Product Removal Tool. But the problem with windows update remained. I then ran the convenience store update Windows that sets these two problems:

    fix windows update fixed the database and repair misconfigured update windows components, but this solves nothing. Later I discovered that although the resolution of update problems show that the problems have been solved but convenience store running immediately shows again the same problems.

    So this time I ran again the recovery system, and immediately after the system recovery windows update of convenience store that showed the problems mentioned above two updates of windows.

    Is it so that means the recovery partition itself contains other problems that my problem would have been solved, what do I do to fix this?

    When you have downloaded the update, asked you "where to save" on your system.

    so you can either do a search for windows to update 'or '.

    try to re - download the update as before and see what folder you can chose to save it.   interrupt the current download, and then open the Explorer to track down the location where the previous download.
