Daily ritual of Windows Update

• Windows Update in Win7 stuck halfway on the upgrade Win10 & consumes CPU

  Windows Update has been the consumption of 50% of my CPU stable for the past months. He started right around when upgrading Windows 10 has been downloaded on my computer, but I had not yet installed (download was unintentional). I thought it would end when I've finally updated for Windows 10 a few weeks ago, but to make a long story short, 10 Windows eventually cause an infinite restart loop and I had to enter in the boot menu and go back to Windows 7.

  Now back in Windows 7, 50% of my CPU is again consumed on a daily basis. Windows Update function tells me "your upgrade to Windows 10 is ready" and asks me to restart, but restarting does nothing. I can't check the updates either, because "a previous installation must be carried out."

  Is it possible to interrupt the Windows 10 half-installed upgrading? Hard for me to imagine it is nothing else, but open to ideas. My only solution was to stop the service, WU, who immediately soothes my CPU, but it restarts after a few hours and I want not updated of future security, so it is not desirable or sustainable.

  Thanks in advance for any help!

  The big question is Win10 or any part of his installation actually start?

  If the restoration does not correct the problem, you may face a complete reinstallation of Windows 7.

  Try these things.

  Click on the starting planet

  type in there services

  Click on Services

  find Windows Update in the list

  Right-click on it and select stop

  Second thing:

  Download and install the GWXControl Panel.

• Windows update - Windows Update is not restore my windows/desktop computer after installing updates

  When running Windows Update is not reproduce my office and rather trashes everything.  Ysterday I left to work with over a dozen research Internet Explorer open and this morning, I get to a Windows auto update cycle, which wrecked all.  Well Yes, they are lost and of course, I can spend an hour or more to find once again but my boss is breathing down my neck, as if it was my fault.  Microsoft how inconsiderate!

  Of course, I have a solution, TURN OFF Microsoft Update but is this really what Microsoft wants?

  Please people think.

  Hi jbeech,

  No, I don't work for Microsoft and I am not associated with them in any way (other than to receive awards and certificates I earned on my own).  I'm a volunteer civilian gift free time to help other people.

  I meant nothing personal, per my comments of workflow.  I was just trying to do my best to help you avoid this problem in the future and apologize if you took it the wrong way.  I agree with you that he must restore it things automatically (as it does when you use the hibernation), but maybe that can be done (at least not always) because updates may affect items that are open and to update these programs must be closed (which makes saving them more difficult because if they look different after the update) It may not work if we try to restore them unless they can find a way to save ONLY the information and it is a much more difficult task).  This problem does not occur with an accident or an unexpected shutdown (and a complete restoration in cases does not always work as well and completely that we hope - at least I had problems back exactly where I was with all that every time).

  While you can choose to turn off automatic updates, you don't want to not go for very long without updating your system, so checking periodically (although if you want to do on a daily basis - I would try at least every Wednesday at least since most updates are released every Tuesday) is important in all cases.  The option I suggested (i.e. automatic downloads but no facilities) would at least them already downloaded (you would not need to check - that they would be there) it would take much less time to choose and install if you show if off completely - and when you decide to install, you will find it takes MUCH more time because you need to download and install (unless they are already downloaded).  But it is entirely up to you.

  Good luck and best wishes!

• Vista SP2 32-bit, Windows Update continues to install KB979683 and then re-list as a new "important update available"

  Automatic updates of Windows installs KB979683, and then in the next update checking, it is listed under "important update available". He repeated every day for three weeks.

  Under 'View Update History', he shows again and again KB979683 installation successfully.

  Under 'updates installed, he said, "no update is installed on this computer". So I can't download it manually on my desktop, uninstall the update, restart in safe mode and reinstall manually.

  Hello slbhattar,

  Welcome to the HP Forums, I hope you enjoy your experience! To help you get the most out of the Forums of HP, I would like to draw your attention to the Guide of the Forums HP first time here? Learn how to publish and more.

  I understand that you are having problems after that a Windows Update could not be installed correctly. I recommend that you use the Windows System Restore feature and restore your system to a point in time before that you did the update that caused the problem.

  Before you do the restore, I would recommend that save us your personal files. You can do this by following the HP support document: backup of files (Windows 8). This document will guide you in the backup process. I advise do you it just in case, but the Windows restore feature should not affect personal files.

  Now that you have your saved personal files, we can make the Windows system restore. You can see how to do this by following the HP support document: use Microsoft System Restore (Windows 8). This document will guide you in the process of restoration. Be warned applications or settings that you have changed by the date that you choose will need to be redone or reinstalled.

  I think that this will solve your problem with the update and allow you to go back to listening to your HP computer. Thanks for posting this topic on the Forums of HP. Have a great day!

• Corrupted Windows Update? (Vista)

  Hello

  I have problems with Windows Update on a Vista laptop. When I try to open the program, all I get is a blank window with nothing to click on. No text, no button.

  I know that some time ago, I created WU to do updates automatically, but I want to regain control of the update process, as WU tries to install the updates on a daily basis and fails. It takes me 15 minutes every day after the restart before I can use my laptop.

  Can anyone help?

  System Restore does not allow that the problem is older than the last restore point. I also tried to use my backup CD that I thought maybe I could reinstall Vista, but the laptop won't even use it for some reason any. I tried to reinstall WU from the site Web de Microsoft, but after doing so the problem was still there. I don't really know what to do!

  Thanks if you have answers.

• For about two weeks screen installation 18 Windows updates at the stop.

  For about two weeks when I shut down Windows 7, I get the message that Windows installs updates 18; do not to stop the computer.   The screen shows that each update is installed and the computer then goes to the closure program.  Installation time is always the same, which indicates that there may be a problem and I see the same updates on a daily basis.

  I did some research on anti virus program bundled in this machine.  I thought I had seen the McAffe program, but apparently, he was anti Norton virus.

  The procedure will be similar, Yes:

  1. download the Norton Removal Tool, save it to your desktop: ftp://ftp.symantec.com/public/english_us_canada/removal_tools/Norton_Removal_Tool.exe

  2. close all open applications (that is, anything with an icon on the taskbar).

  3. click right on the file saved in #1 above, and then select run as administrator to run the utility. DO TAP not your keyboard until the race ends, then restart.

  4 uninstall AVG Free 9.0 & reboot.

  HOW to uninstall or change a program

  ATTENTION! Now you're "working without a net": no to anything else online (e.g., navigation, control electronics, cat, other downloading) until you have completed the steps #5 and #6 below!

  5. now to do a fresh install of AVG Free 9.0, this time select the CUSTOM installation option and do NOT install (uncheck) Linkscanner Search-Shield, Active Surf-Shield, security or the email of crawl components toolbar.

  Why you don't need your anti-virus to scan your email
       http://thundercloud.NET/infoave/tutorials/email-scanning/index.htm

  6. manually and regularly update AVG until you get a prompt "no more updates available.

  7 test cycle.

  Note: If you also think there could be a McAfee application installed at a certain point, he could not not bad for download/run the McAfee tool, too, before proceeding to the 'custom' own installation of AVG 9.0.

  Most of these modules of 9 AVG is not compatible with IE8 IMHO (especially LinkScanner). Do yourself a favor & don't install them.

• Windows update does not update windows defender and so tried to update via windows defender that shows also no update

  Hello!

  I've always used Windows updates to warn me of updates and then I install them. Normally Windows Defender is updated daily through windows updates.

  For some reason, he is not showing / offering of windows defender updates.

  Time windows last defender of the shows has been update on my pc was 11/2.

  I know updates have been released since then for Defender, but I can't get them.

  Even if it does not automatically show me, I say manually updates to check updates and which shows nothing for windows defender.

  So, I went to the windows defender program and used the update it.  This shows also no update available.

  Can someone please help to understand what is the problem?

  Thank you so much!

• Repeated installation of Windows Vista SP1 in Windows Update and fake notification of successful Installation.

  I was using Windows Vista Home Basic 32 bit OS in my Dell Inspiron 1501. The operating system is preinstalled and Windows Update updated to SP2. But recently an unknown problem has occurred and my laptop cannot connect to the internet. As no reason was found, experts have advised the reinstallation of Windows Vista. I reinstalled Vista by running the operating system provided by Dell with my laptop DVD. The laptop started to connect to the internet normally.

  I started to receive an update to Windows Vista SP1. I installed it. Installation has suddenly didn't have that about five minutes and the computer also has not restarted several times on its own as expected. At the end of the Windows Update notification "Update" successful installation Update history shows also succeed installing SP1. However, I am receiving the same updated daily and installed in exactly in the same way with the same result. After installation, the Windows version does not display Windows Vista Home Basic SP1 but only Windows Vista Home Basic. What should I do?

  I had the same problem and it really irritated me. Even when you install SP1, and he says there are successful (takes like 1 sec inst) and you click on updates search is there once again. He said in the story who is has been installed, but is not there, when I tried to install SP2 maually it is said first install SP1, and then I tried to manually install SP1 and it says that I have already. But if you go to start > right click on 'computer' > properties it does not say you have SP1. So here's what I just did and now it worked and SP2 as well.

  When you click on the support link that he gave u get the ability to run a thing 'fixit '. That run. And it still didn't work. (read everything in the support page) Then I went on this link and ran the virus Hunter MS. Nothing was found, problem still there. so I ran again the file 'fixit '. (twice he said them that something was fixed.) then I restart my computer and tried to install the SP1 Setup again and it worked perfectly :) then SP2 and it worked as well manually. and he has actally took like an hour to install. maybe try, worked for me. lol, don't know what measures was unnecessary, but it worked. You can download the SP to install it manually, simply google "manually install SP1/2 for vista" or something and download it.
  Sorry for the bad grammar/spelling. In a hurry, lol. I hope that you manage!
