  • Can not get the updates of Windows XP

    Had to reformat my old dads computer and start with the installation of the new plant.

    After that, went to update the XP and the site says nothing availble.

    I know that I need to SP1, 2 & 3 and everything that has been issued (should be hundreds).

    I also have the message "your computer may be at risk, automatic update are turned off.

    The "Security Center" in the sign says that they are off, I turned on in "Security Center", but it still does not work.

    In the order shown, do not jump...

    First of all - download, install, operate and put to update and then run a full scan of the system with the following two (one at a time, reboot in-between):

    After you perform a full scan with one then the other and remove anything they have all two are completely, you can uninstall these products, if you wish.  This initiative will allow to check there is no malware floating around your system which could cause problems.  If you ask - no, Norton probably does not protect you from what these applications can find.

    Download and run the MSRT tool manually:
    http://www.Microsoft.com/security/malwareremove/default.mspx
    (Ignore the details and download the tool to download and save to your desktop, run it.)

    Reset.

    Download/install the latest program Windows installation (for your operating system):
    (Windows XP 32-bit: WindowsXP-KB942288-v3 - x 86 .exe )
    (Download and save it to your desktop, run it.)

    Reset.

    and...

    Download the latest version of Windows Update (x 86) agent here:
    http://go.Microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=91237
    ... and save it to the root of your C:\ drive. After you register on the root of the C:\ drive, follow these steps:

    Close all Internet Explorer Windows and other applications.

    AutoScan--> RUN and type:
    %SystemDrive%\windowsupdateagent30-x86.exe /WUFORCE
    --> Click OK.

    (If asked, select 'Run'). --> Click on NEXT--> select 'I agree' and click NEXT--> where he completed the installation, click "Finish"...

    Reset.

  • Spectrum of HP x 360 i7 x 64: can't get the update of Windows 10 November

    Hello

    In early September, I bought spectrum HP x 360 with Windows 8.1.

    It to update Windows 10 so far here and I am really happy with it.

    (So he already spent 31 days after the upgrade of the it to windows 10 home edition)...

    When I go on Windows update it tells me that my PC is up to date but it is not true. I continue with the version 10240. It does not detects the update of November (it detects not 10586).

    I googled on this topic and found that now it is not possible to force the installation by using mediacreationtool as Microsoft flying over this possibility. We are only able to do this through Windows Update.

    Then... How can I force my HP install windows update November 10?

    Thanks in advance for your kindness

    Best regards

    You're in luck!  Just read today that MS has restored the creation of media downloads for the Win10 tool build 10586 - the November update.

    So, you have access to one - once again.

    Good luck

    ========================================
    I was wondering... you are totally unable to download the file
    on your hard drive? Or... you can download the file to your hard drive
    by car, but simply cannot display it?

    If you right click the executable for Windows Media Player and
    in the menu choose... Properties / Compatibility tab is...
    Windows 95, chosen for Compatibility Mode? If_Yes_try
    unchecking the box / apply / OK.

  • I can't get the updates of windows in Windows 7

    Original title: 123ash

    Hi, I installed Win 7.1 Professional 64-bit on my Gateway laptop. It has been authenticated

    Everything works except that I can't get windows updates. When I try to download the green lights in the bar and just continues to run. I got it on for hours. I checked to make sure that the update services are on and set to manual startup. BITS is running as well. The update of the victory is not blocked by the firewall.

    I don't have a single update to date. Explore Internet settings have been changed by default.

    Any help would be appreciated.

    Hi, sorry for the late reply.

    I made sure that the BIT has been started.

    I have disabled the Windows Firewall (as I have a Bullguard internet security firewall as well).

    Then I tried the udater and it worked! Thanks for the advice above.
