• Windows can't check for updates, update history lists all updates but updates installed tells me that I have no updates installed.

  Hi, I use Win Vista Ultimate 32-bit sp1.  I have KIS2009, A Squared Anti Malware, MalwareBytes Anti Malware installed.  All showing my system is clean.  I ran MSRT analysis to light, and he pointed out that my system is clean also.

  The problem
  When I connect, I get a balloon in the notification area telling me that "windows cannot check for updates.  Opening of update of Windows and do it to check a windows update updates it just go and research without results.  It justs keep checking, but I get no error.  Lists history of update Windows Defender updates the last today, 06/09/09.  All updates prior to this are Windows Defender until 28/04/09.  At this time I have installed 15 updates, including some Office updates.  Click on installed updates and finally I said that there is no update at all?:

  What I tried
  I disabled my firewall and tried again.  No luck :(

  Tried a point files, but apparently I don't have?  I should have, but there is none there.  Install Win7 RC on a different partition, would this have wiped my restore points? I remember Vista made this for XP, but assumed that this would have been resolved with Win7.

  I tried to install Win Vista sp2 but unfortunately, I installed the Russian language (don't know why I, I was annoyed a day) but the sp2 download in five languages and Russian is not one of them :(

  So I tried to do a search on it.  Came across various inscription mention deletion of registry keys.  Only problem is that I have not mentioned keys.  Some keys were supposed to be in the components of HKLM, sorry can't remember the others.

  Find this site, I tried the FIX tool, reset Windows Update.  He ran not aggressive and he made the restoration, request for permission to UAC thingy, then the progress bar moves to the right and nothing else happens.  Restarted exciting tried and the same thing happens.  Been sitting there for more than two hours and no results.

  I checked services.msc.  I have BITS began, was automatic but have updated the manual according to the instructions contained in the ' automatic updates can be turned off "at the top of the forum.  Update of Windows, The Windows event log and Software Licensing Service are all set to automatic, and running.

• How to replace "apply downloaded update now" with "Check for Updates" in the menu help when the update fails because the downloaded update files are missing but the "Ready to install update" window keeps appearing?

  Question

  I have another type of problem with Firefox

  Description

  Window "Ready to Install" Firefox "Software Update" appeared. The folder "C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\updates\0" contained the files update.mar, update.status and update.version. Each of the 3 files have been deleted. The next time that Firefox has been started, no update occurred because update files were missing. In the Menu bar, clicking Help showed in the menu drop-down that "apply downloaded update now" was always on the list. By clicking on "Apply downloaded update now" open "Software Update" window "Ready to install update", so that Firefox still considers that the update files exist, but they do not. In the window "Software Update", by clicking on "Restart Firefox" restart of Firefox, but once again it there's no update, and remains "apply downloaded update now" on the Help menu. How can "Apply downloaded update now" be replaced by "Check for Updates" so the update files can be downloaded?

  Version of Firefox

  3.6.3

  Operating system

  Windows XP

  User Agent

  Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; RV:1.9.2.3) Gecko/20100401 Firefox/3.6.3

  You can manually reset the software update feature by closing Firefox and remove the file "updates" (which seems you have done) and the two files "active - update.xml" and "updates.xml" - these are in the installation (C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox) directory or in the profile folder (C:\Documents and Settings\nom_utilisateur\Application Data\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\something.default).

  If it does not, see our KB article How to resolve the failure of the update of Firefox update error message - the section of 'last resort' can be useful, or or read this article from MozillaZine KB, software update.

  Please let us know how the above work, and if we can be of further assistance.

• If I do a full reformat on my Vista laptop, is what will solve the problem - "Windows cannot check for updates" error code 800FFFF? Frustrated!

  I have a laptop that I use mainly for cloud computing and travel.  I have much stored on the hard drive itself and I spent hours trying to solve the problem regarding
  
  Windows can't check for updates, error code 800FFFF.

  I tried some of the recommendations varied on this site, but so far without success.

  If I just wipe my computer, and then start reinstalling everything from below upwards, will that solve the problem?  I know it sounds drastic, but I'm willing to do, and hopefully learn something in the process.

  I'm not computer specific read and write... so it would take me hours, wading through all the different corrections before as I find one that works.  That's why I'm considering a reformat.

  I checked for malware and repeatedly tried to system update readiness tool.

  Any thoughts?

  Some information on my system:

  OS: Vista Edition Home Premium
  Version: 6.0.6002 Service Pack 2 Build 6002
  Model: Inspiron 1525
  System type: X 86-based PC
  Processor: Intel Core 2 DUO CPU

  Hello Jason.

  I suggest you try the following:
   
  close and exit all the open documents or windows program you have open.
   
  Open Internet Explorer (only!) go to http://support.microsoft.com/kb/923737 
  [ignore the warnings of DO NOT APPLY and the section will APPLY to] & run the difficulty.
   
  Note => for best results, check the option to remove personal settings.
   
  NEXT
  1. open Internet Explorer (only!) to http://support.microsoft.com/kb/910336 [ignore the title & symptoms].
   
  1B. make disappear/close the pop-up window "automated troubleshooting! -then...
   
  c. 1, without taking into account any warnings similar, or '' not recommended '' run difficulty he 50202 in DEFAULT mode (if on a race later you still have the same failure, then repeat the above & select aggressive mode).

  2. closing of the session and restart the cool system & 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.
   
  If it has updates Silverlight or Net Framework, select not them and leave it for one pass later.
  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.

  If you still have a failure and you just did a Fix - IT in the default mode, date back to 1 a/1 c and now this time make the default mode AND aggressive mode (both) and retry Windows Update again

  Note: Running aggressive mode difficulty he 50202 will result in a loss of the history of the update but will not affect the actual installed updates.

• I'm trying to update Firefox by clicking 'Help' but I cannot select "Check for Updates". Help!

  There are several Web sites and online services that become a problem or are unusable for me because I don't have the latest version of Firefox. But I tried to update and cannot. I go to the 'Help' drop, and the "Check For Updates" option is greyed out and unselectable. Help, please!

  If he has problems with the update or the permissions then simpler is to download the full version and trash the version currently installed to do a clean install of the new version.

  Download a new copy of the Firefox program and save the file on the desktop disk image (dmg)

  • Trash the present application Firefox to do a clean (re-) install

  • http://KB.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox

• In the Tools Menu there where the message "apply downloaded update now" appears "check for updates" should be.

  No matter how many times I "apply" it goes to the same message. The message is displayed only on a user account on this particular computer, other users show the option ' check for updates '. Tried uninstalling and reinstalling several times without success. Running Vista Home Premium 64-bit

  Run the program Firefox once as an administrator (right click: run as administrator).

  If this is not possible then you must remove the update to download.

• Disable "Check for updates" at startup, ThinPro 5

  On our t620s running ThinPro 5 (T6X50034), every time you start the user is presented with the window "Check for updates", despite having disabled me 'enable automatic update at startup of the system '. Until it is completed or clicked 'Skip' in the lower right, nothing else is responsible, so it is essentially unnecessarily interrupted startup every time. I can't find another way to disable this option. Unchecking the box I mentioned above have absolutely no effect. Thoughts?

  Switch to the administrator user, open a terminal window. Regeditor TypeRegeditdans. In the registry, look at the config wiz and auto updated values. Change them if necessary.

• I have an error Code 80004002 doing "Check for Updates of Windows.

  original title: I have an error Code 80004002 doing "Check for Updates of Windows. Any suggestions? Fred Naden

  I click on "Check for Updates of Windows" and the message is 'Windows could not search for new updates' & ' an error occurred when the new updates

  for your computer"and" error (s) found: Code 80004002 Windows Update encountered an unknown error ".". "

  Hi Fred,.

  To read the file CBS, the simplest method is to copy to another destination. Windows 'locks' the file as any event that must be written to the file CBS is done so during the normal process of Windows and if you play the file, it could cause a conflict. After copying the file to another location, it will open without any other change to the authorisation.

  Regarding damaged/corrupted files try to find who they are and then check to see if they can be repaired manually.

• Win7 SP1 "Check for updates" never full

  I had to reinstall a pre - SP1 version of Win7 64 bit since the partition recovery on the laptop of a friend. After getting SP1 and updates associated, I ran "Check for updates" again and had a known, documented problem in the thread at the https://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/forum/windows_7-update/windows-7-sp1-is-not-downloading-the-updates/b80fb3f8-39c0-4f99-9f6f-8e0464488377?tab=question&status=AllReplies#tabs. Specifically, "Check" never full.

  Unfortunately, the solution prescribed in this thread does not work for me. I downloaded and ran the installation program 1st in the list, (KB3153199), but this stand-alone Setup program runs in its own process of "Search for updates on this computer" and, after a full hour and counting, has not yet completed.

  Is there a work around known for the solution I try?  :)

• What is happening with Windows Update you will need to install a new update to check for updates?

  What is happening with Windows Update from 18/01/2016 When I find out Windows Update in Control Panel, he said, with a big yellow sign warning, "install new Windows Update software to check updates. You must first install an update from Windows Update. Your automatic update settings will not change. To install the updated Windows Update will automatically close and reopen. »

  Only Microsoft would think of this UPDATE TO SEE THE UPDATE.

  When you click on install, it starts running AND running and checking for updates and there is no display. It must be download them?

  When I go to shut down the computer, there is a big yellow exclamation on the Start button that says that Windows Update will install updates before its stop point. So it takes a while to stop.

  I also noticed that in Windows Task Manager > process I have an iexplore.exe process * 32 running 120, 600 KB.

  It stopped when I changed the Windows Update option stop the download and installation.

  The computer is running very slow and erratic.

  I just reinstalled Windows 7, so I have to do all the updates.

  Does anyone have the same problem?

  Thank you

  TomS

  Yep, that's how M$ slides 10ware in

  See the note at the bottom of the updates settings page ;)

  M$ has abused more than system update in 2015 and that continues in 2016.

  I usually don't worry about this if updates are they come if not well welcome to 2020 support ended in the beginning

  Do not use Internet Explore / MSE / Windows Firewall / Windows defender

  Find alternatives for all of the foregoing

  Free Panda who has a firewall

  Premium not free malwarebytes, but it has a free version

  Superaitispyware pro, which also has a free version

  Moon pale x 64 bit is quite good with Firefox.

  In the end, you can use a standard account instead of an administrator account and be safer.

  You can still enter a password if you are prompted to run the items that you know are safe.
