• Want to try 10, irretrievably broken windows update

  OK, Windows update is irreparably broken, it won't work as expected.  If I try to use it, it aspires to 1.5 GB of ram, and flat.  I give up.  Frankly, I just want to see if maybe win 10 will solve some of my hatred for 8, but I still want to give it a try.  I have a bios installed win 8 key, is there a version of win 10 oem who can see the key so I have not try to use the horrible nightmare that is updated for Windows.

  As side note, I know, I know that many of the problems of Windows updates has to do with permissions and missing components, I also didn't need to run antivirus/spy because my system is really secure and I'm not sure it so that Windows can have his way with her.

  (my program files folders are empty, none of my files are owned by the trustedinstaller)

• Windows Update, firewall, Defender, Security Essentials completely broken

  Hey guys. Been having a lot of problems with Windows 7 64-bit today. At first, I thought it was average PC problems, but it turns out (according to malwarebytes and security essentials) that I picked up some nasty viruses. Windows Update, windows firewall, security essentials real-time protection and a few other things all seem to be broken and does not boot. I tried everything under the Sun, it seems. Just recently, I scanned completely and removed the virus. Any help would be appreciated.  My virus:

  Results of MalwareBytes and Security Essentials

  My PC seems to be in a very fragile state right now. I have NO system (still friggin happens to me) points of restoration and one step before the removal of virus he told me my copy of windows was not authentic. This seems to have severily damaged my PC. Is there something I can do?

  I think it started about two days ago, I had to install a driver stupid on my PC to my PSP. It was disabling driver signing verification. Last time I do this.

  Create a Ubuntu Live CD, boot with it and plug in a USB key and copy what you need off.

• I have problems with the installer of Windows and Windows Update, and the solutions that I found for the two each rely on the other broken system to fix the first.

  I use a laptop HP Pavilion dv4-1220us with Windows Vista Home Premium Service Pack 1, a 64-bit operating system, and I have problems with Windows Update and Windows Installer. When I try to install programs, I get the following, or substantially similar message without the error code:

  "Error 1719. The Windows Installer Service could not be accessed. This can occur if Windows Installer is not installed properly. Contact your support team. »

  So I tried to download Windows Installer 4.5 and install it. When I try to start the installation, it always hangs on the first step, "Initializing Installation."

  After searching for a solution to this problem, I found that Windows Update may have a solution. So I downloaded the 64 bit version and got a file named 'file Windows6. 0-KB942288-v2 - x 64. I tried to run this file. He opened a box that said, in order "Prepare for Installation", "Full Preparation", and finally "Searching for Updates ', before you open a second box, which reads" click OK to install the following Windows software update: fix for Windows (KB942288). I clicked on OK in this box, which opened another box, which says at the top "updates are installed" and in a smaller section, "initializing for Installation................... »

  However, no matter how long it works, it never gets past "Setup initialization."... »

  So I tried to run Windows Update in Control Panel. He ran for a while, before giving a message saying "to check the updates, you must first install an update for Windows Update." I clicked on the button that says "install now". He has flashed, a moment, "download and installation of updates' before you go to the"check for Updates"and then he brought back the exact same upward ' to check updates, you must first install an update for Windows Update" message as before. I clicked install now once again, only to go into the exact same loop. After about four times in a loop, I gave up on it.

  So I tried to install Windows Installer 3.1v2, which took a while before saying "not enough memory is available to process this command." and the abandonment of the installation.

  So, I tried to download a program from 'Mr. Fix - it' of Microsoft. It downloaded fine and then failed on installation, because of the same Setup error I received initially.

  Finally, I tried to restart my computer and each solution is represented. Then I clean my computer and each solution is represented.

  In conclusion, the mistakes that I have in Windows Update and Windows Installer cordoned off each other, as the mistakes of each program are based on the other program to be repaired. I'm at my wit's end here. My computer works fine without one, except that I can't install new programs. I can access the internet fine, access files fine, all my scans have developed own... I don't really know what is happening. Can someone help me with this?

• Vista - windows update broken (and then some)

  Hi everyone, maybe you could help me with this...

  My system is a laptop running vista home basic service pack 2.
  The laptop is also on a wireless network without proxy.
  all moving parts are functional, I would say... (ram hd etc..)

  It seems that this update of windows is quite unable. Common symptoms are
  -When you try to search updates notice occurs that the service is stopped.
  -A separate statement occurs informing that a host process has stopped working.

  The most recent update I see is 11/09.

  A quick glance around my services leads me to believe that BITS is the problem, because I can't seem to start the service without stopping quickly. It also reproduces the host process error notice.
  Event Viewer shows a consistent error listed as follows...

  Failing application svchost.exe_BITS, version 6.0.6001.18000, time stamp 0x47918b89, failed module qmgr.dll, version 7.0.6002.18005, time stamp 0x49e037de, exception 0xc000001d, offset 0x000587e7, process 0x2d8 id error code, start the application time 0x01ca8c8b35264f9f.

  The error also occurs with windows defender.

  I tried the fix for BITS of http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx/kb/940520 including the manual fix suggests the page.
  I also tried several methods which included manually stopping and restarting the windows update service and other services that I considered relevant.
  System restore failed me on all accounts, Startup Repair can not find anything.
  This error is also reproduced in safemode, but also a clean boot.

  An interesting thing that I met just used the fixit found here
  http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/971058
  I ran it automatically with the aggressive function checked.
  After the reboot, I found that windows update worked but then the two BITS and windows update services stopped.
  There is also a message in the editing window:

  Code 800706BA (unknown error)

  I did a considerable amount of research on the internet, including the knowledge base and I can't seem to find a solution for this. So I turn here. After watching a few discussions, it seems that people here are knowledgeable and helpful.
  In all sincerity at all any help is GREATLY appreciated.
  Thank you for your time.

• Update Windows updater seems to be broken

  I did a clean install of Windows 7 today after meet repetition on my new PC build problems when you try to install Adobe Photoshop CC - she has no https://helpx.adobe.com/creative-cloud/kb/vc2015_update.html , indicating she needed during installation and Visual C++ Runtime 2015 https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/kb/2999226 it my PC appears to hang.

  It's around the same time that I was doing a lot of Windows updates, but those also stopped working.

  So today, I took the difficult decision to do a full clean reinstall of Windows 7 and then through all available updates.  I noticed that the C - 2010 has been installed.

  Among the updates later included one update manager to update itself and I have since then it seems just to be an icon of rotation without finding any other updates or give me any comment at all.   So, for me, it seems that if the new update nursery is at fault.  Any suggestions as to what to try to fix this problem.

  I hate again to install Visual C++ Runtime 2015 in which case it is also a problem that I was not quite sure what caused my problems before updating, but I tend to think it's Windows Update Manager.

  Help gratefully received.

• Windows Update is broken; Upgrade Windows 10 fails

  So I did a few puzzles for a while. After discovering a driver which prevented my upgrade of Windows 10, I made the installation of ISO and ended up with a computer that had no compatible driver.

  Actually, this problem can be my laptop (ThinkPad X130e Windows renovated 7) is simply not compatible with windows, I noticed that Windows Update continues to say that it is impossible to install the important updates while the system uses certain services not matter what I do. I tried:

  -Restart

  -Reboot from a clean boot (in accordance with the procedures of Microsoft)

  -Flush out the Windows Update C:\Windows\SoftwareDistribution files

  -Rename files of the said

  -Deletion of records of such

  Is not a question, the question remains the same and I can not install my updates.

  Please note that from this moment, I don't have that 11 updates Microsoft .NET Framework 4.5.2. Not a SINGLE update was done on my computer, so what makes the attempt to installing Windows 10, when returning to Windows 7, it proceeded to abolish all my updates hard and left me with a computer vulnerable and partially useless.

  What am I supposed to do? Run a new installation? It stands at the moment, I'm once again... but I'm pretty frustrated broadly and unstable Windows Update was for my laptop Lenovo.

  Please run the Windows Update Troubleshooter:

• KB3034344 Windows update fails to install, update is broken and cannot be fixed

  I am running Windows 8 on a machine that has been upgraded to Windows 7 (and initially Windows Vista).

  My current problem is that updated that kb3034344 fails to be installed. When I run the troubleshooter for update, he finds 2 questions and correct, but the same items are found whenever I run a convenience store. I downloaded the latest update problems resolution, and after running it then windows update also mistakes trying to find new updates (a 8024, 000). I was able to fix this before, but it always comes back to this specific update, do not install. I ran through several steps: any attempt manual repair windows update, reboot with all the services of the disabled package (clean boot), sfc, ongoing execution and one or two other thing I don't remember. I'd be happy to do a fresh install of windows, but I don't think I can do that with my Windows 8 upgrade disc, which may also be damaged and the cause of my problems. I don't have any running antivirus software.

  Any suggestions on what to do next? I can't install the update to Windows 8.1 due to failure of the update pending, and I think that is required to qualify for an upgrade to Windows 10 when possible.

• Broken Windows w/error 8024402F update

  Hello

  Looks like I'm certainly not alone in this problem:

  When you run Windows Update to my laptop Win 8 newly installed, the process fails almost immediately with:

  --
  Error (s) found:
  Code 8024402F
  Windows Update has encountered a problem
  --

  I have:

  1 cleared out the C:\Windows\SoftwareDistribution folder and allow it to rebuild.

  2. run the Windows Update troubleshooting tool.  When run, it detects problems and specifically says recent updates installation problems - is not fixed. " I reboot and have the same problem.

  3 run sfc/scannow - all checks very well.

  I am at a loss.  Does anyone have any other tips/tricks to try?

  Thank you

  Hi Brian,.

  Error 8024402F Code indicates that there could be some interruption when downloading updates.

• Stream 13-c002: 10 broken Windows, recovery &amp; reset fail.

  Hello.
  
  I bought a laptop HP flow, with 10 Windows pre-installed.
  
  I burned a set of recovery disks. I also got the product key OEM of Windows from the BIOS.
  
  Then my broken Windows 10. Cannot start. Get reviews of the process died error.
  
  Then I tried to recover. I get errors on the recovery of all and reset methods. Tried to 'keep my files', 'erase disc', etc..
  
  Then I downloaded and installed the unique language of Microsoft Windows 10 N ISO. It installs and runs without error.
  
  But he does not accept the product key OEM HP on this Stream l.
  
  I suspect that the store may have updated the computer from 8 to 10, and the OEM key is for 8, not 10.
  
  According to the HP website, my warranty is active.
  
  What can I do? I believe that, if the computer comes with 8, then if HP would provide 8 installation disc, that would solve everything. The recovery partition is not, so I need the complete installation disk.
  
  Or any other solution?
  
  THX,
  Johny.

  Hello

  Looks like the machine shipped with Windows 8.1 so it must have been updated with the windows 10 - this means generally that the upgraded version would be 10 Windows Home 64-bit.

  As long as the installation of Windows 10 has been enabled, the profile of this material should have been registered with the Microsoft activation servers and reinstall the correct version should translate into automatic start-up; but it is version dependent.  Try to perform a new installation with 64-bit Windows 10 Home as stated in the guide on the following link.

• How to restore Windows Updates?

  RE this post, automatic updates of Windows 7 have broken my development environment and cost me some valuable development time!

  Friday afternoon, windows update did some updates during my lunch break, after which I was unable to debug applications at all.  This seems to be a known issue.

  Is it possible to make back, or do I have to re - install the OS/IDE from scratch and turn off the automatic updates permanently?
