    OK... I had the same problem with the download of the 2007 Microsoft security updates. When I tried to install updates, I receive error 646. I finally solved my problem by going to the Download Center on Microsoft and I install manually.

    Here are the steps that I took... which I think should work:

    (1) go to the Microsoft Download Center: http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/en/default.aspx
    (2) look for each update code that begins with the letters "KB" and followed by a set of numbers (i.e. KB974234)
    3) click on the link for the download and then click on download and run. I think you have to accept an agreement, then click on continue or OK
    4) repeat for all downloads that you can not install
    (5) run Microsoft Update new and click search the updates and if updates have been installed successfully, they should no longer appear in the updates that must be installed.

    I don't know if it is not relevant or if it helped me succeed to install updates manually, but before I manually installed my updates I followed the instructions David_O posted here http://social.answers.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/vistawu/thread/f3390e74-9961-4aae-8a05-554c1a9cf1a2 . I suggest that first of all try to download manually by following my directions. If it does not, then it's a possibility instructions of David resolved an issue that allowed me to download them manually disable Microsoft downloads site.

    I can't believe all the research and the suggestions of the technicians did not work... sometimes your own research is the best!

    I hope this helps! Good luck!

I don't know what to do these updates can install correctly. I have windows 7. I use to have security of norton, but I know I have mcafee. and I've changed programs of security around the same time, I started getting these error codes.

    Thank you

    Sorry, you have problems getting your patches installed. I have a number of things for you to look at.  First of all, your Background Intelligent Transfer Services set to Automaticand started and Windows Update ? You can check these settings by typing services.msc in the search box of the start menu.

    Since they are all Office updates, you can do a repair for office function.  To do this, click the Start button, type programs and features and click the enter key. Right click on Microsoft Office 2007 and choose change.  Choose fix and continue.  Microsoft Office will attempt to fix any problems there (this will) take a few minutes to run.

    Sometimes in order to get patches to install correctly, you must perform these tasks manually.  Download and run each patch:

    KB980729

    KB981715 

    KB976321

    One last thing, you mention that you removed Norton.  Did you use just add/remove programs?  If so, you must run the Norton Romoval Tool (from Norton). Add/Remove Programs does not receive everything uninstalled.  Here is the link: ftp://ftp.symantec.com/public/english_us_canada/removal_tools/Norton_Removal_Tool.exe

    Hope this helps to get your installed patches.

  • When using automatic update I have error Code 646 for all update 2007 office

    Whenever I'm going to update office 2007 using updat auto I get the error code 646. I have to have to review the updates and goto discovers each separately to update and install them one at a time. How to return to the installation of automatic update, so I did not install them one at a time?

    1. maybe repair or reinstall Office 2007. You will need your product key and the original installation media.

    2. try to install the updates with the media in the drive of original installation.

    I think it's because of a registry problem that keeps this error for specific products that is why I proposed the repair/reinstallation of office.
