Cannot get beyond error 0x8024D007 when trying to get Windows Update or Microsoft Update
I tried to get the Windows Update and Microsoft Update on a Windows XP computer as well, but I got the error 0x8024D007 with both. In view of this error message on your site, I did the registry fix and still no change.
It took me awhile, but I found a solution that worked for me.
1. Remove Service Pack 3 - if in Control Panel , you do not have an option delete, just Start, run and type: c:\windows\$NtServicePackUninstall$\spuninst\spuninst.exe
After removing SP3 restart. Now, go to Windows Update and it should load fine. Go ahead and install high priority updates and reboot again.
2. reinstall Service Pack 3 - it is better to just download the .exe for SP3 file and run it from the machine rather than using Windows Update to download and install. Before you try to run the .exe however, go ahead and avoid the "Access denied" error by typing this command in a command prompt window:
secedit/configure /cfg %windir%\repair\secsetup.inf /db secsetup.sdb/verbose (Pay attention to the spaces)
Now you can reinstall the SP3 and Windows Update should work again. If you get hooked to the last part of the installation which is "Scene cleanup", make sure that you have given him enough time to finish (a few hours) then simply open the the Task Manager and end of the process. Reboot, and you're good to go.
* This fix also worked on a Server 2003 that had the same problem. Uninstalled and reinstalled SP2 using the same method. It is now up and running and pulling on the updates.

Things are easier to answer when they're repeated enough on the forums. ;-)(Even easier when the posters give some details about the details of their problem.)

Cannot get Windows Update to download updates continuous Error 0x80072EFD
System is running Windows XP Home SP3. I tried all that in the article above and still can not get Windows to date. Microsoft Fix - it that starts automatically when you will allow you to join the article don't fix things not be and it gives me the same error code 0x80072EFD as the update of Windows. I can install updates from the Windows Update Catalog, but I can't just Windows Update to work. During execution of the controls in the article when I typed in Sfc.exe a Black Madonna window appears and disappears. There is Norton on that computer that causing Internet Explorer do not allow access to the internet and the Norton Removal Tool has been used to remove it. Immediately I could access the internet but when even could not get Windows Update to download updates. I tried to disable the Windows Firewall and still no help. I installed AVG and it finds several viruses on the computer, they were removed and still nothing with Windows Update. I even tried turning off AVG and nothing helped. Help! Frustrated.
Ok...
And how did you determine that the computer is no longer infected (i.e., by whatever it is)?
What is now the computer state to Windows Update?

I can't open windows defender, when I tried, it will display an error message, the 0x800106b5 error code. Hope someone can help me solve this problem
Hello
I think you may have the incorrect error number
are you sure this isn't: «Error 0x800106ba»
read this information on the Defender:
· If you use microsoft security essentials avg avira mcafee norton etc they disable the vista version of windows defender by default
the basics of Microsoft security has its own version of windows defender
and other anti-virus programs use their own particular type of application to scan for spyware and malware
It of nothing to worry and is the default action, which is designed for them to do
If the above does not apply to your machine to read the information on the below link on how to disable the windows defender service in vista or make an autostart to enable
and here is the method to remove it from startup in vista
http://www.groovypost.com/HOWTO/Microsoft/Vista/remove-Windows-Defender-from-Vista-system-startup/
and this is how you would normally activate or disable windows defender in vista from within defenders of own and options tools
http://www.groovypost.com/HOWTO/Microsoft/Vista/disable-Windows-Defender-for-Microsoft-Vista/
and read this information to microsoft:
Error message when you run Windows Defender: «Error 0x800106ba»
http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/931849
and if you need to change startup programs read this information on the other methods of doing it without using defender
using msconfig read this tutorial:
How to use MSCONFIG in Windows Vista
Here's how to use MSCONFIG in Windows Vista to disable some unnecessary programs that load automatically at startup

and also try this FREE program Autoruns:

Error code 646 when trying to install Windows updates.
Windows updates appear to download but will not be installed. I tried to go into 'control panel '; Security systems &; then Windows updates. It checks and concludes that they are downloaded and try to install but won't. My computer is set to automatically download and install, so I'm never checked to see if they really were the installation so far. It seems the latest installations of updates took place the 1/11 & 12/01/11. There has been many failures last year. Right now, it seems that there are 6 updates important and 6 optional updates that will not be installed.
I tried to disable my Norton Internet Security and then the installation, but that does not work either.
Can anyone help?
Thank you.
