  • Permanently delete updates for Windows Vista

    I continue to receive updates for the points I have not and would like to put an end to their reception.  More precisely: to security update for 2007 Microsoft Office System, which I have on my computer, and Office XP Service Pack 3 that fails whenever I try to install it.  My version of Microsoft Office dates back several computers.  It is 2002, which works well for my needs.

    Is it possible to stop get updated, I don't want or need?

    I have HughesNet, subject to the FAP, and updates Windows Vista me close on the first day I got it.

    Also, is there a way to set the function to download between 02:00 and 7:00 AM EDT?  I can put the installation between these hours, but updates continue to download when they want.

    You are in the Forum updates to Windows Vista.

    Click Start > right click on computer > properties > Windows updates down the lower left corner > updates installed in the lower left corner in the next window

    > then click the one that you don't want > uninstall will appear at the top > uninstall it.

    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

    In addition, on the page where you clicked "Installed updates", click on change settings at the top left corner it

    > Change update settings in the next page of AutoUpdate to "check for updates but let me choose etc" > OK ".

    When you take a look at pending updates, you can either download/install them one at the time, namely the update causing you problems.

  • I get a repeated error on install Platform Update For Windows Vista (KB971644). Fails with the error code 80073AA2. Installation comes from Windows Update.

    Windows Update loops round and round constantly to not set up correctly, then restores the changes

    Do I need to install the System Update Readiness Tool KB 947821?

    Probably not: I had a lot of doubt that SP2 is installed if KB947821 has not already been installed.

    Given that this problem is after a fairly recent install of SP2...

    Free unlimited installation and compatibility support is available for Windows Vista, but only for Service Pack 2 (SP2). This support, initially planned to end on November 26, 2009, has been postponed until February 26, 2010, so move on! Availability of support chat or messaging differs depending on your location. Some questions may require that more support for which he is advanced a charge.  Go to http://support.microsoft.com/oas/default.aspx?prid=13014&gprid=582034 & select appropriate category (i.e., download problem;) Installation problem; Problems after installing a service pack <=pick this=""> ).

    In the case opposite & whereas KB971644 is NOT a security update, you can simply hide the "thing":

    1. stop the automatic updates service:

    Start > Right click on run , and then select run as administrator > services.msc (type) > [OK]
    Double-click automatic updates > click stop
    (Stopping the service will take a moment)

    2 remove the contents of the download folder:

    Start > Right click on run , and then select run as administrator >
    (type or copy/paste) %windir%\SoftwareDistribution > [OK]
    Open the download folder and delete its content
    Close the window.

    3 start | Control Panel | System maintenance and (if you use Classic view, skip this step). Windows Update |  View the updates available (or Select the updates installed): right click on the (platform) update for Windows Vista (KB971644) | Click hide update | Confirm the prompt UAC (User Account Control), if any, & OK your way out.

    4. start the automatic updates service:

    Start > Right click on run , and then select run as administrator > services.msc (type) > [OK]
    Double-click automatic updates > click Start
    (Stopping the service will take a moment)

    =====================================
    To restore/show updates for Vista: Start | Control Panel | System maintenance and (if you use Classic view, skip this step) | Windows Update | Restore hidden updates: Find and select the update you want to install. Click restore. You can now select once again it and install through the normal process.

    NB: If KB971644 were available for download/installation manual (and is not), I would have you try it.

  • Update for Windows Vista KB980248: 80070017__ error Code

    I tried to install the update for Windows Vista KB980248 but receive the error Code:80070017

    "There was a similar issue, published with the proposed solution, being (1)" run the Chkdsk.exe too check the drive for errors"and 2" rename the download folder.  The two were not successful.

    I also tried a number of different methods as suggested by MS technical support (see below), but none succeeded, so I hope someone else has also encountered this problem and has a solution.

    The steps I've already done: clean boot. downloaded and installed the update manually; high my privileges as a user profile; Services activated window important; disabled user account control; Run the component tool to reset Windows Update in default; Not Windows Installer and then re-recorded Windows Installer; use the System File Checker. installed the updated system preparation tools.

    Any help appreciated

    After reading the process to carry out a repair for Vista installation, I was not confident I could do given my lack of COMPUTER skills and feared that I would have done something wrong.  But while browsing the site there are other suggestions that I adopted. For example, I downloaded Registry Booster, ran the System File Checker (which I had already done but thought, no harm to do again), and other suggestions are in response to similar questions like mine.  I also ran an another Chk Dsk (I also run this previously).  To restart, as he was driving through the verification process, he said,' windows replaced bad cluster in file name \window\winsxs\x8A9C8~1.226\ 8915cambria.ttc'.  And I was happy, because it was the file you advised has been damaged.  I don't know exactly how it happed, as I said, I had perfomred chk dsk a numer of times before.  I was successfully able to install the update for Window Vista KB980248!  I was so happy after all the anxiety.

    Thank you very much Andrew, for your time, assistance and patience. Very much appreciated.

  • Cumulative update for Windows Vista...

    There are several updates, called "Cumulative Security Update for Windows Vista" that whenever I have download interrupts me to use Internet Explorer 7. I have no problem download from this but find myself constantly having to uninstall these updates after installation. It's a hassle and they never go (which means that I always wonder to install). When I say cut, I mean I open the browser, but it gives me an error of loading of the page. I have a WiFi connection and make sure that I am connected, but it still says that I'm not. I also have problems with Internet Explorer 8, which after installation cannot be used because it gives me an error of loading of page and constantly suggests that I am not connected to the internet. I'd love to have my laptop Compaq in the shape of the top end and as secure as can be but I can't with these issues, and often, I decline to make the updates for this reason. If you can help me with these questions, because I promise you that I have did everything in my power so please do! If not, then I can live with this POS a bit longer ;)

    Thank you in advance!

    You should have (1) uninstalled Norton free trial, (2) download / run the Norton removal tooland then (3) installed Webroot Antivirus with Spysweeper (?) BEFORE the Norton free trial period had expired. (Too late now).

    Tip: After getting the computer fully patched, download/install KB971029 manually:http://support.microsoft.com/kb/971029

    NB: The Norton free trial will be reinstalled (but invalid) when Windows is reinstalled.

    Recently, I received 646 error code when you try to install the important/automatic updates to Windows Vista. What patches are there for this issue? What risks are there to do not overcome this problem?

    rivercitylady,
    Usually with the code 646 error, if you download the update and install it manually that will fix the problem.
    Go to the Microsoft Download Center and search for the number of the update has failed.  Download on your PC, then run it from there. Mike - Engineer Support Microsoft Answers
