Can not get the latest Windows 7 security updates
you want to say thank you in advance to anyone who could help me with this problem. I was not able to install the new updates of security, and I don't want to leave my computer in a vulnerable state, so any help is super duper enjoyed.
I have a desktop running Windows 7 Professional 64-bit Service Pack 1. I bought the parts of the computer separately, so it did not come with a pre-installed Windows OS.
Since about two months ago (when I installed Windows), I was never able to find the updates by using Windows Update. It crashes just on the "check updates" screen I have yet to get error messages, it crashes just on this same screen, with the bar that goes from left to right.
After a week or two, I noticed that Windows has not been activated, and all I had to do was re-enter the product key. Now that Windows has been activated, I tried to look for updates again, same thing, it of just always looking for updates without results.
In the Windows Update window, it says:
Final check of updates: never
Updates have been installed: never
You receive updates: for Windows only
I have some important updates, the value "Install updates automatically (recommended)" every day at 03:00.
I have Windows Update Agent 7.6.7600.320, status: success, installation Date: 17.8.2016 (the same day I installed Windows)
2 updates installed: KB976902 (installed on November 21, 2010) and KB2534111 (installed on August 17, 2016)
I searched the internet for possible solutions to the problem, and that's what I've tried so far:
I tried troubleshooting Windows update with the tool in the Control Panel, it hanged on "Check for updates online", so not much luck with that.
Scanned with Avast Antivirus computer a couple of times, has never found a virus.
I downloaded the WindowsUpdateDiagnostic tool and tried, I got the following:
Problems found
Windows Update, error 0 x 80080005 (2016-10-16-T-12_49_06P) is not fixed
Registration for the service is missing or damaged fixed
Fixed problems to install the latest updates
Fixed problems to install the latest updates
After that, still can't anything when I try to search for updates in Windows Update.
I tried to download and install KB3172605 from Microsoft Download Center update, I had read that the update was to make the search for updates in Windows Update faster. Download was successful. Then, I stopped the Windows Update Service. When I tried to install, but I was left with an error message saying that the update was not applicable to my computer.
Subsequently discovered on Belarc Advisor, downloaded and ran the program. He tells me that I have a total of 148 updates security missing, here is the list:
Can I download and install these updates manually using Microsoft Download Center? If possible, in what order should I install them? Are there any updates in the list that I have no need to get, or updates that should be included in the list? Y at - it updated I could get that would speed up the process of search for updates in Windows Update?
How long can it take to find 100 updates + I need help from Windows Update? A long time I've tried have Windows Update check for updates was like 10 hours, without results. Is it worth trying to leave to search for days even? Also can I disable my firewall and antivirus during this time, or is it too risky? I am reluctant to do it, because I SLEEP in the same room as my computer is in (and the cpu fan can get really loud).
One thing that I thought about just today is that I always shut down my computer at night. Since updates are planned to install at 03:00 in the night, interrupting this process by stopping the computer down every night? Should I try to simply put it to sleep instead, for a few nights?
We appreciate once again, if anyone can suggest what to do in this situation. Responses from anyone who has had the same problem and managed to resolve it might also be useful!
Thank you!

I can't get the necessary XP - SP3 security updates or remove Silverlight
How can I get the XP Service Pack 3 security updates?
I downloaded Silverlight some time ago. I have a router that connects computers. I just download XP SP3.
I am having trouble with the upgrades/silverlight and the message I get, is that programs cannot find Silverlight.MSI ISO of the network resource.
I read some documents published in questions below which indicates I would uninstall and reinstall Silverlight. By clicking on Add/Remove Programs shows 2.0.310005.0 Silverlight is installed. But I can't remove it successfully. He says that a network resource is not available.
How can I get silverlight working properly?
Thank you.Hello
· Outside of Silverlight, you are able to uninstall other applications that are present on the system?
· What is the exact error that you receive when you try to uninstall the system Sliverlight?
I suggest you to uninstall the system Sliverlight and check if you are able to manually install it back on the system or not.
a. start Registry Editor: in Windows XP, click Start, click Run, type regedit.exe in the Open box, and then click Ok.
b. Locate and click to select the following registry key
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Silverlight
c. After you select the key, select delete from the Edit menu and then click Yes when it asks confirmation.
d. on the file menu, click on exit to exit the registry editor
e. restart the computer and check if Sliverlight is uninstalled form the system.
f. then reinstall it on the new system and check. Download Silverlight from the link below.

Can not install the latest version of iTunes. Everytime I try I get this error msg: "the component you are trying to use is on a network resource that is unavailable."
Then I click OK and get this msg: could not find the path C:\users\my name\appdata\local\apple\apple software update\itunes6464.msi.
I need to sync my new iPad pro and because used to synchronize requires the latest update, I have my laptop but I never have syncd my ipad with this computer and if I try to backup if I agree to erase everything on my device and sync with the laptop. Of course, I don't want to do what I want to see everything on the NEW ipad from the old version.
I went through the troubleshooting and found a solution, but when I had finished making all this trouble report said, there was a pesky itunes shortcut file on the left and I can not delete this shortcut, regardless of how many times I try. If I can't remove it, the Installation will be terminated. How can I delete this file?
For general advice, see troubleshooting problems with iTunes for Windows updates. Start by Missing MSI errors .
The steps described in the second case are a guide to remove everything related to iTunes and then rebuild what is often a good starting point, unless the symptoms indicate a more specific approach.
Review the other boxes and other support documents list to the bottom of the page, in case one of them applies.
More information area has direct links with the current and recent buildings if you have problems to download, must revert to an older version or want to try the version of iTunes for Windows (64-bit-for old video cards) as a workaround for problems with installation or operation, or compatibility with QuickTime software or a third party.
Backups of your library and device should be affected by these measures but there are links to backup and recovery advice there.

Norton Internet Security 2011 (updated)
Hi ScottCarter,
· Did you do changes on the computer before the show?
· You are trying to install updates?
· Are what fixit you referring?
Follow these methods.
Method 1: Temporarily disable the security software.
Note: Antivirus software can help protect your computer against viruses and other security threats. In most cases, you should not disable the antivirus software. If you do not disable temporarily to install other software, you must reactivate as soon as you are finished. If you are connected to the Internet or a network at the time the anti-virus software is disabled, your computer is vulnerable to attacks.
Method 2: Put the computer in a clean boot state to see if there is a software conflict as the clean boot helps eliminate software conflicts.

I can not get the norton for 36 firefox toolbar. Have run Norton live update repeatedly. He updated of all good and applied a patch. When I go to the firefox menu > Modules > extensions, toolbar Norton is grayed out and says he is not compatible with firefox 36 and is disabled. Help! I need my Norton safe.
Hi Cathie7372, according to Norton the latest version of the toolbar is compatible with firefox 36 is 2014.7.10.26 - your watch as 2014.7.10. 16...
as norton distributes the updates themselves we are probably not able to help much - please contact norton support if you do not receive the last update, even after running liveupdate repeatedly. they should be able to help get their product to date.

I have Firefox 8.0.1 and since the update to it, some sites, I need to go so that Firefox will not accept certificates which is accepted in the previous version. I can not get the permanent exception and must uncheck permanent
You can use this button to go to the Firefox profile folder:
- Help > troubleshooting information > profile directory: opens showing the file
It is not usually necessary to create an exception for the certificates.
Possible causes are that a server does not send the full (intermediate) certificate chain or self signed certificates.
