• Cannot install updates for Windows 7 SP1

  Hello

  I tried for awhile now to switch to Windows 10 without luck ( http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/forum/windows_10-win_upgrade/windows-7-key-not-recognized/9a66ab9a-819a-4285-9461-64e7528db222?tm=1450545430339&auth=1 ). In the end, I decided to reinstall Windows 7 RTM, install all updates and then upgrade to Windows 10.

  Unfortunately, I seem to be impossible to install updates for Windows 7 now. Everything was going fine until Windows Update Agent 7.6.7600.320 installed. After a few mistakes, WU start looking for updates for hours. I've tried everything as suggested here without a bit of luck. In the end, I decided to leave it to search through the night and finally it does find and download updates about 300.

  Installation of these updates takes about 4 hours and Windows restarted and tried to configure the new updates, restarted saying once again he could not configure the updates of Windows and it will undo the changes. And it's been like that for over an hour.

  So as soon as now I can not even update Windows 7, not to mention the upgrade of Windows 10.  Any ideas? I'm sick of the Windows updates, causing problems.

  Installation sometimes loads of updates at a time can cause problems. When you access the list of the 300 updates Windows updates to odd day again, deselect all of them and then choose the oldest (for example) 50 and see if they install on their own.

  Sometimes do fall off a long list of updates and try to install more small pieces may help them to install.

  Is not sure, but its worth a try as a first shot.

  (I know what you mean though issues of update.) It makes you wonder what's going on sometimes :-()

  If this does not help, is there required failure account error codes?

• How to remove downloaded updates for Windows 7

  How can I delete downloaded updates of Windows 7?  While the updates are being downloaded, apparently I lost my internet connection then maybe that these were not completely downloaded. When I was prompted to install the updates, I did.  During the stop, the computer only installed15% and then stop.  I am now invited that updates were not properly installed.  I have updated manually several times over with the same results.  Should I delete the old downloaded updates and start again?  If so, how do remove these updates downloaded so I start again.  Thank you.

• Cannot download updates in Windows 7 on dial-up connection.

  I need to use a computer * running is not Windows 7 * to download from Windows Update, paste them on removable media and install on Win7 box.

  The question...  Last fall, I bought my mother a new machine with Windows 7.  It does not and is not interested, a connection high flow - it has remote access.

  The last time I was visiting there, she mentioned that its Internet connection did not work.  Turns on it worked, but it was unusably slow.  It is in the process of downloading 165 MB of Windows updates.  According to my estimates, it would take about a day to download 165 MB more than 56 k modem... She is not willing to tie up his telephone line for so long.

  Original title: download updates on a PC (no-Win7), install it on another?

  A disable updates of Windows, so that he can stop tying up of its connection.  Of course, now he nags him with a warning of security because Windows Update is disabled...

  I need to be able to download the updates appropriate removable media at work & then send him the CD & a few instructions (simple!) for their installation.

  Otherwise, I need a way to tell Windows Update do not use bandwidth connection - use maybe 5 KB of its 56KO connection & leave the rest so the computer is not useless for a few weeks, then download updates.

  Is this possible?  Or she'll just have to ignore security warnings?

  FYI

• Cannot install updates for Windows XP SP3

  Well for some reason, I am unable to update a new installation of Windows XP Pro after installing SP3.

  I tried the following:

  Reset.

  IE6 is in tools > set windows update (gave me the message of not being able to be updated unless the update to sp3 which I am already)
  The Windows Security Center on the left hand side click on "check the latest updates from Windows Update." Got the same page as described before.
  Microsoft Windows browsed forums - found a lot of comments saying problem has been resolved by updating to IE8.
  Updated to IE8. Restarted. Waited to see yellow shield in the corner saying windows has been downloaded updates. There can be no.
  Click "Check the latest updates" once again, he launched IE8 but led me to the same page, telling me to SP3 again, I already have)
  Checked under System Properties I'm at SP3.
  The active firewall settings. Make an exception for wupdmgr and wuaclt. Think the windows firewall can block updates.
  Waited for updates again. Yet none came through.
  Click "Check the latest updates", waited a bit came updates.
  Entered the update IE8\Tools\Windows and got the same message to update again.

  There is no other software virus on the PC at the moment.
  I was Imaging PCs for several weeks, and this is the first time I have encountered this problem.

  I have .net framework 2.0 and 3.0 is installed. They have been installed prior to service pack 3. I tried to uninstall, but it wouldn't let me, and I'm not entirely convinced that is the problem. Any ideas?

  This PC has been infected by a virus previously. However until I did the reinstall I had deleted the partition previous and had the drive reformatted when you set up...

  After a clean install, you will have the equivalent of a "new computer" in order to take care of everything below in order before connecting otherwise the machine to the internet or one local network (i.e. other computers) AND BEFORE to plug in a flash, SD card, or any other disk to the computer:

  1. make sure that the Windows Firewall is enabled.

  2 uninstall all now invalid Norton, McAfee, etc., free version of test which have perhaps been reinstalled when you reinstalled Windows, run the appropriate removal tool, [1] before installing the antivirus of your choice application (for example, Microsoft Security Essentials - free).

  3 then only get to Windows Update & get the fully-patched computer! [2]

  4. ensure that Windows Defender is turned on (Vista & Win7) or installed (WinXP)... unless you opt to install Microsoft Security Essentials which will disable the default Defender.

  ... Also ran ccleaner and clean registry, it has not helped either.

  No, it's only issues worse, I assure you!

  TIP: If you ever think that your registry database must be cleaned, repaired, amplified, to the point, cured, twisted, fixed or optimized (it isn't), read http://aumha.net/viewtopic.php?t=28099 and draw your own conclusions.

• Cannot download updates for GPS Magellan map

  I have the available map updates for my gps and Magellan had verified that there is no problem with the unit.  They say that my computer is blocking the download.  Whenever I get the message: download error. Plese try again.  I disabled the firewall and security system, but the problem persists.  Any suggestions?  Thank you.

  Is downloading fault or any installation after the download?

  What browser do you use?  Try to clean your temporary Internet files, Cookies, and browsing history.  If it's IE try temporarily disabling Protected Mode.  Take a look at IE / Tools / Internet Options / Security / Protected Mode.  Quit and restart IE.

  See if you can get the download (manually) on another machine and and copy it to your machine.

  You use a download manager that you can stop using to test with.

  You can check in in "Safe Mode with network.

  Which firewall do you use, whatever this is, with the exception of the Windows Firewall will need to be uninstalled to test correctly as catastrophic protection is not sufficient in most cases, as many parameters remain active.  Also make sure and .exe download update is given through the authorization.

  Do you have a router or Modem, with any built-in firewall which can be disabled and tested?

  Have you tried to add the site to download as a trusted Site in the browser (Security tab)?

  All the updates stopped IE8 download, as well as all the downloads from Windows Update, 5 days ago on XP machine.  Worked perfectly before.  Have tried everything including the individual download KBs.  Nothing works.  Windows Installer is set to automatic and is enabled.  Can't find solution proposals.

  Original title: update download problems

  Howdy Vernon,

  No, don't run any FixIt.

  Instead, follow these steps:

  Tap Start > type cmd > and press ENTER to get a command prompt

  type in
  net stop wuauserv 

  Go to Windows Explorer.
  Look on your system (usually C) drive and see the name of the Windows folder. Like Windows or WINNT.
  Edit following as appropriate.
  If your Windows folder is C:\Windows.  Look at this file
  C:\WINDOWS\SoftwareDistribution\Download

  If you find files in there, remove them.  This file is where the Windows Update files are stored downloads.

  Return to the command prompt window.
  type in
  net start wuauserv 

  OUTPUT

  Restart the system and then run manually check the updates in Windows Update, etc, etc...
  When you get to Windows Update, a custom scan updates. Take (accept) those marked critical or Important.
  Those that are marked as "optional" decline.
   
  Have infinite patience so that it scans and it's work.
   
  When you are prompted to restart Windows, please do. Allow it to restart.
