Cannot install Windows Update - 8024AFF error Code

original title: 8024AFF error Code

Hi, I can not install updates on Windows Vista.  I get the message Error Code 8024AFF.  Can anyone help?  Thank you!

Check this error code: it should be 8 digits, not 7.

Vista Service Pack 1 (SP1) or SP2 installed?

What application or antivirus security suite is installed and your current subscription?  What anti-spyware (other than Defender) applications?  What third-party firewall (if applicable)?

A (another) Norton or McAfee application has already been installed on the computer (for example, a free trial version which is preinstalled when you bought it)?

    Hello

    If you receive the Windows Update 8024401 b error when searching for or installing updates, a problem prevented your proxy server to your network credentials. A proxy server is a server used by your computer to connect to the Internet or a network and, in this case, to download updates. Follow these steps to provide your credentials and install available updates.

    a. open Windows Update by clicking on the button start. In the search box, type Update, and then in the list of results, click Windows Update.

    (b) in the left pane, click Find updates.

    c. If you are prompted, provide your network credentials. If Windows does not prompt you to provide credentials and you see the 8024401 b instead of this error code, click on try again.

    d. When you are prompted, provide the credentials that you use to access your network (for example, your user name and a password). Windows continue to update automatically and notify you if you need to install updates.

  • Cannot install Windows updates. Error code 0 x 80070057.

    After repairing my grandsons laptop, I thought do him a favor and make sure that it has been updated. His laptop is running Windows 8 / 64-bit. After verification of updates and find that there are 55 necessary updates, I proceeded to the d/l and install them. When the computer is restarted, I got the message about the update fails and go back. I then tried to install updates grouped older first of all with the same result. After the search for solutions, I ran to the troubleshooting Windows Updater which showed

    OT: update windows 8

    Problems found

    Recent updates installation problems not fixed

    Check missing or corrupt files detected

    Some security settings are missing or have changed fixed

    Windows Update 0 X error code 80070057 (2014-04-26-T-11_59_49P) fixed

    doesn't really tell me much or what to do. Other research has forced me to do a "clean boot" and tried again to install the updates with the same results

    So I spent the afternoon installing all the updates (all 55 of them) one at a time to see those who failed and caused a back. Isolated to these

    I then ran the troubleshooting of update again with the same results. Check the updates again. Funny after having spent the whole afternoon doing so he showed that I have ever had checked updates, never installed updates. Two updates that did not are now installed and another two appear as needing installed (KB2903938 & KB2862335) that fails when you try to install.

    My questions - are these necessary updates? Critical? If so how can I get to install them?

    What a pain. I don't even want to install optional updates or upgrade to 8.1 for fear of having to repeat this experience.

    Hi cornerevergreen,

    Welcome to Microsoft windows vista forums!

    Error code Windows Update '0 x 643' Windows Installer error code "1603" are generic error codes. As a general rule, these error codes mean that the update was not installed. These error codes are usually caused by a corruption in the installation of .NET Framework or by an inconsistency on the MSI database state.

    To successfully install the update, uninstall all versions of the .NET Framework on the computer, and then reinstall all the versions of the .NET Framework on the computer

    Check the steps in the link to solve this problem.

    When you try to install an update for .NET Framework 1.0, 1.1, 2.0, 3.0 or 3.5, you may receive Windows Update '0 x 643' error code or error code Windows install "1603".

  • Cannot install the updates, the error codes 641, 8004ff01, 80070641

    Windows vista basic, cannot install updates to the codes .errow 641, 8004ff01, 80070641,.

    1. If you have backups of ALL the changes that System Mechanic and RegCure Pro have ALREADY made to your computer, restore EACH of them, restart & test.

    If no joy...

    2 system Mechanic is probably your troublemaker & you have lots of company! [1]

    See my colleague Maurice RESPONSE message in this thread: http://answers.microsoft.com/thread/d6fedf33-dc1b-451f-9aab-97429f916180

    If still no joy, contact System Mechanic (iolo.com) supported for assistance - and they are well aware of the problem posed their candidacy.

    TIP: If you think that more never your registry database needs to be cleaned, repaired, boosted, to the point, healed, twisted, fixed, magnified, "swept" or optimized (and even more to convince that it is not), read http://aumha.net/viewtopic.php?t=28099 and draw your own conclusions.

  • I can't install Windows Update. Error code 641

    Hello!  I hope I'm posting in the right place.

    I tried several times to install updates and nothing has worked.  The said tool fix fixed it and maybe he did because a few updates have been installed, but many were not.   I'm not very technical, but I'll try to explain in as much detail as possible.

    I am running Vista Home Basic. It has Service Pack 2. The Type system is PC based X 86.

    Get error codes on some 641 and 80070020 on others. As I said I'm not technical and maybe I don't know what I'm talking about, but I think that the computer is missing some critical files. For example, sometimes he said: the installer of Windows are not available. I don't know if I need that updates however. Finally, I tried the fix and he said: it has been fixed. I managed to install as 1 update, but most of them failed or if windows update said it was successful, when I restart updates have been configured wrong, so he returned changes. I disabled avast anti-virus & system guard (mechanic system) because I thought he could block and which seemed a little help I got an update installed.

    I continue to look for solutions and try new things. I tried to download the Windows Installer 4.5 Redistributable. I think that windows6. 0-KB942288-v2-x 86.msu is the one that I want, but it continues to tell me that it does not apply to the computer. Choose one bad? It's Vista and x 86 (said information system). I've tried every solution I could find in the forums, but nothing works. I think something must be reinstalled, but I don't know what. If someone can tell me what to do?

    Hi Jevene,
